9. Let's hand that question over to the University of Virginia, shall we?

"O.P.P.- O.P.P. means Other People's Property, a term used specifically for promiscuity"

SO...take all of the words you know starting with "P" that aren't "Property" and you'll figure it out.

O.P.P. by Naughty By Nature
Album: Naughty By Nature

This is about cheating. If you're "Down with O.P.P.," it means you're willing to cheat on your boyfriend or girlfriend. Not exactly family values, but it's presented in a fun and clever way that never spells out exactly what the song means. There are no dirty words in the lyrics. The lyrics explain that "O.P.P." stands for different things depending on your gender. The first 2 words are "Other People's," but for guys, the last P is a "5-letter word rhyming with cleanest and meanest." For girls, it's "Another way to call a cat a kitten." In the end, they keep it clean by saying the last P stands for "Property."
