I did it in June ---

MIDI - MORE - (second section)

Moore, we'll assist in your distributing
Moore, Hezbollah will help with everything
Moore, with your aid Islamists surely win
Moore, we consider you one of our kin

Moore, we approve the things you do...would you like a pie or two
When the rest are dead, we swear we won't cut off your head

So, Moore, can you share DVD rights with us
Moore, we need money to blow up a bus

Moore, we approve the things you do...would you like a pie or two
We know you'll be coming through

Moore, we watched you distorting Columbine
Moore, we're sure that the final cut's just fine
Moore, you're the Fonda that we knew would come
Moore, just ignore them when they call you scum

Moore, we approve the things you do...would you like a pie or two
When the rest are dead, we swear we won't cut off your head

So, Moore, can you share DVD rights with us
Moore, we need money to blow up a bus

Moore, we approve the things you do...would you like a pie or two
We know you'll be coming through

woo, needs work :p the first 2 lines could use some punching up see I think its funnier if the lines are somewhat similar to the original, like Moore, your the greatest schlub, while not classic, resemble More than the greatest love, like time for "Time for joy and time for cheer" resemble "time to sneer and time to jeer"- its almost as if your lines bear no resemblance to the original at all, and again they don't begin to scan. "Moore, we'll assist you in your dis-tributing" how the heck would you sing that in time? And everything rhyming with distributing? That doesn't even work as a groan rhyme like orange and door-hinge or Attorney Gen and Geneva Conven.

"Moore, we watched you distorting Columbine Moore, we're sure that the final cut's just fine" That just doesn't work, there's no way to sing that to make it work. If it does scan to a midi, the midi sucks, its not valid. Maybe "Moore, can distort events like Columbine- Moore, reaps the benefits at Oscar-time"- that's weak but it scans.

I don't know I guess we'll just have to disagree about technique.
