Song Parody Fragments:
"It's My Party"
Better Lyrics:
Nobody knows where my Severus has gone
Evans left the same time
Why was his arm round her waist
When he's supposed to be mine?
That's a horcrux, and I'll die when I want to
Die if I have to, the way I want to
You would die too if Snape euthanised you
Evans left the same time
Why was his arm round her waist
When he's supposed to be mine?
That's a horcrux, and I'll die when I want to
Die if I have to, the way I want to
You would die too if Snape euthanised you
Original Lyrics:
Nobody knows where my Johnny has
gone
Judy left the same time
Why was he holding her hand
When he's supposed to be mine?
It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too if it happened to you
gone
Judy left the same time
Why was he holding her hand
When he's supposed to be mine?
It's my party, and I'll cry if I want to
Cry if I want to, cry if I want to
You would cry too if it happened to you

Insincere Song Lyrics:
"You Don't Own Me"
The Insincere Lyrics: Just let me be myself.
That's all I ask of you. Why They're Insincere: Yeah, sure. The whole song is a sullen litany of one demand after another. Yet the singer still has the gall to afffix to the last demand, 'That's all I ask of you.'!
Submitted by: Carla Jorgensen
| "Judy's Turn to Cry"
The Insincere Lyrics: Judy kissed some other guy;
He [Judy's date] turned around and he hit him To show he's a real lovin' guy! Why They're Insincere: The 'rime riche'' ('guy' rhyming with 'guy') is not the issue. The girl Judy tests her boyfriend by kissing some other guy! So what does her date do? He hits the other guy rather than reprimanding Judy for flirting! this is loving?

Inappropriate Song Lyrics:
"Judy's Turn To Cry"
The Inappropriate Lyrics: Oh, one night I saw them kissin' at a party
So, I kissed some other guy Johnny jumped up and he hit him 'Cause he still loves me, that's why Why They're Inappropriate: This was typical behaviour for the early 60's. Revenge kissing, followed by violence! You gotta wonder what the guy thought the next time he saw her coming down the hall...'Oh crap, here comes that psycho beotch Lesley! She got my butt kicked by her cheating boyfriend!'
Submitted by: Johnnyrock
| "You Don't Own Me"
The Inappropriate Lyrics: I'm young and I love to be young.
Why They're Inappropriate: What does this have to do with the rest of the song or its haunting taunting message? Is she planning on being okay with someone owning her when she's older?
