July 6 "Careless Hook Ups " by Below Average Dave a parody of "Careless Whisper" by George Michael
This song was always a personal favorite to sing, Careless Whisper. . .George Michael's Cheating song. . .My version isn't about cheating though, oh no, it's about the regret of meeting one night stands on line. I wrote this long after the song was out, considering I would have had to been in my single digits to write it back when it did have it's hey-day, and I shouldn't have known about one night stands at that age. badave.com: (mp3) (Comments)

Song Parody Fragments:

"Faith"
Better Lyrics:
Well I guess it would be nice
If I could touch my body
Inside a porta potty
And everybody knew
Original Lyrics:
Well I guess it would be nice
If I could touch your body
I know not everybody
Has got a body like you

The very next day, you threw it away

Repetitive Lyrics:

"Last Christmas"
The Repetitive Lyrics:
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Why They're Repetitive:
It was good the first time I heard it, but not the 128, 419th time. How many times does it repeat in the song? I keep losing count and falling asleep. Makes you wonder what George Michael was doing when he kept repeating this...

Insincere Lyrics:

"Faith"
The Insincere Lyrics:
Well I guess it would be nice
If I could touch your body.
Why They're Insincere:
It wouldn't be nice to touch a woman's body against her will.
Submitted by: Kirby
"One More Try"
The Insincere Lyrics:
I wrote this song - I know it's wrong
Why They're Insincere:
When he says 'wrong', is it in the literal or moral sense? If the former, well can't argue there if this bad rhyming is anything to go by. If the latter, if he knew it would be wrong to write this song, why was it written in the first place? He's even lying to himself!
