It really is good. Of course it seriously helps to have the recording and not just lyrics!! Whoopsie on the rules. I am sure one of yours was the runner up, no? Wonder who else's they liked!
I should have tried to sing mine, LOL. Sandy Burglar karaoke. I don't know if I could get that voice -- could I stuff my cheeks with cotton like Marlon Brando in the Godfather?
Oh, well. FWIW, here was my submission:
If I Only Had the Nerve
***
Yeah it's sad, believe me Mista'
When a man's a Clintonista
Without the vim and verve
But I could show my slickness
And be Willy's clever witness
If I only had the nerve
The archives held the mystery
For ME rewriting history
A fate I well deserved...
And my plan, it was hatching
While my socks were busy scratching
Then I finally got the nerve!
Picture me, a trailer tire
Some papers down below
"Wherefore art thou, Osama-o"
We never knew... did you?
***
Bush would soon be just a nuffin'
My pants all full of stuffin'
*His* head all full of toof'
He could stay young and chipper
and be worthy of the Gipper
but he'll never have the proof...
I'd unravel every missive
Declassify with scissors
A ding-a-derry doo...
And a mere dismeanor
Made my youth look kind of cleaner
And I owe it all to ME.
Oh I could tell you why
Kuwait is on the shore
Why Bin Laden doesn't write us any more..
But do I tell? Oh well..
***
I'm afraid there's no denial
I had a *dandy* trial
The sentence was absurd
'Cause I'm slick as a whistle
(Like the boy who shoots the missiles?
Cause his missus had a pistol?)
Cause his missus is a lady who will serve....
And I'm sure to get a fine, a home, a pardon,
Da Nerve!
I'm calling for a NEW song parody contest in which the rules about lyrics only are FOLLOWED.
Hmmmmmm.....an online petition? I think we need the sleazy attorney from the Seinfeld show. We can all end up with a lifetime supply of latte.
