Great James! How do you and NetDoc do it. I've been working on a song for two days now and I've only got the first verse and part of the chorus! LOL

Florida boy, good job, I wish I knew the tune though so I could sing it! :)
 
The first one is ALWAYS the hardest... so after you finish the one you might just find lyrics popping in your head. I think I have forgotten more than I actually wrote down... no, I KNOW that I have forgotten more than I have written down. Too bad, but the world is probably better off for it... :tease:

BTW, The University of Scouting is coming up at the end of October... guess what I teach. I get to teach adults how to sing silly songs and do skits. Go figure!!! :tease:

The perfect man for the job I believe! :)

BTW I've finished my song finally, I just trying to tweek a couple lines that don't quite work right. It's been fun. Thanks to all for the inspiration! LOL

Well c'mon! Let's see it!!!!! :D

Not quite yet. I have a thought. I thought it would be a lot of fun to have several people write a parody fo the same song and have a contest of sorts. So I am starting a new post entitled: Are You Up to A Challenge?
 
After continued pressure of my faithfull fans I start warming up with a short one To the Bee Geez "more than a woman":

More than a snorkel:

Oh, boy I've known you very well
I've used you blowing everyday
I never really understood before
but now you give me air oh boy

Suddenly you're in my mouth
part of everything I do
you got me diving day and night
just trying to dive below.

More than a snorkel, more than a snorkel to me
More than a snorkel, more than a snorkel to me
More than a snorkel, oh, oh, oh.

There are stories old and true
of people so atouched like me and you
and I can feel myself
let history repeat itself.

Reflecting how I feel for you
thinking about those people then
I know that in a thousand years
I'd blow some air with you again.

More than a snorkel, more than a snorkel to me
More than a snorkel, more than a snorkel to me
More than a snorkel, oh, oh, oh.

LOL! Sounds good. I am up to the challenge. Although, I will need the related song by 2pm EST today, as I am going to be gone gfor two weeks after that.


Liquid, good job.
 
Okay, so this is way over my head, so to speak.

What about Arloe (sp?) Guthrie's "Alice's restaraurnt"?

"Alice's Diveshop"?

I don't remember the original well enough to create a parody myself.

Not to mention that I haven't dived yet and don't have a point of reference.

Great parodies though everyone. Very enjoyable.
 
For all of you who are feeling a little older and missing those great old tunes, there is good news. Some of our old favorites have re-released their great hits with new lyrics to accommodate their aging audience. Some examples:

Herman's Hermits--"Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Walker"

The Rolling Stones--"You Can't Always Pee When You Want"

Paul Simon--"Fifty Ways to Lose Your Liver"

Carly Simon--"You're So Varicose Vein"

The Bee Gees--"How Can You Mend a Broken Hip?"

Roberta Flack--"The First Time Ever I Forgot Your Face"

Johnny Nash--"I Can't See Clearly Now"

The Temptations--"Papa's Got a Kidney Stone"

Nancy Sinatra--"These Boots Give Me Arthritis"

ABBA--"Denture Queen"

Leo Sayer--"You Make Me Feel Like Napping"

Commodores--"Once, Twice, Three Trips to the Bathroom"

Procol Harem--"A Whiter Shade of Hair"

The Beatles--"I Get By with a Little Help From Depends"

Steely Dan--"Rikki, Don't Lose That Clapper"

Credence Clearwater Revival--"Bad Prune a-Rising"

Marvin Gaye--"I Heard It Through the Grape Nuts"

The Who--"Talkin' 'Bout My Medication"
 
Those are great. Has someone actually written a parody for those or just the titles?

BTW NetDoc, you haven't sent me your Lukenbach, Texas parody yet. Hope you're still not mad at me for my impatience! :) I'm waiting for a couple more before I post them all. Thanks!
