| Original Performer: | Beatles |
| Parody Song Title: | "I Shop At Wal-Mart" |
| Parody Written by: | Mikey Squirrel |
I'll get shoes while you get clothes and he gets toys and we all shop together
See how we run down aisle twenty-one, see how we buy, I'm shopping
Sitting by the front doors, waiting for the store to open
There's a sale on T-shirts every single Tuesday
You can't use your credit cards, you ran your limit up
You shop at Zellers, they shop at K-Mart, I shop at Wal Mart, let's go today
See that peppy salesclerk, standing at her open salesclerk register
See how we buy, some sports and art supplies, see how we spend
I'm shopping, I'm shopping, I'm shopping, I'm shopping
Furniture and curtains, linens, books and jewelry
Grab a shopping buggy, fill them up with specials
Yes, I've seen the flyers now, and I cut the coupons out
You shop at Zellers, they shop at K-Mart, I shop at Wal Mart, let's go today
Walking through the men's department, looking for some slacks
If I cant afford it, I'll be okay, I can put it on layaway
You shop at Zellers, they shop at K-Mart, I shop at Wal Mart, let's go today
Let's spend away
Spring coats, toy boats, hardware, kid's wear, can't you see that underwear is on sale?
Get some dinner plates for 3.98, see how they sell, I'm saving
Home and garden centre, watching out for falling prices
Televisions, CDs, videogames, DVDs
Man, you gotta see what's on the blue light special now
You shop at Zellers, they shop at K-Mart, I shop at Wal Mart, let's go today
Let's spend away, Let's spend the day and shop away..

And after all that, you go and get into your straight jacket?
It appears Wal-Mart will never board to Finland. We have too strong unions.
Should have ended with "Everyone to Wal-Mart, Everyone to Wal-Mart, Everyone to Wal-Mart, Everyone to Wal-Mart....."
You nailed this one. But anybody who thinks Wal-Mart is good should "oompa, oompa, stick it up your jumpa." Susanna: Maybe Wal-Mart doesn't like the cold. Wish my country would give it the cold shoulder.
Very funny....555
The price just got droped to 555. But I thought the Blue-Light Special was a K-Mart thing. Maybe Walmart bought that too. :-)
(ABC 4) Pacing spot on throughout, which is more than I can say for my own parody. I was hoping for a little satirical kick in it, but that's OK.
(ABC4-I) I'll second the spot on pacing, and the rhyming is good where it needs to be (mostly internal). The format was a little odd, and while I detest Wally-world, this was very good. 555.
ABC4-I) In south Texas the locals call it Wally Martinez. From a shoppers point of view this parody gets the bang for the buck just like good old Wally Martinez. Liked it.
ABC4-I...Very good job here. You have the misfortune of being compared to the other "I Am The Walrus" in this round. I don't know how picky we are supposed to be in our comments for the contest, but my thoughts are that you wrote and posted this in a hurry. Your last verse is a combination of the last two verses of the OS. I know you are an exoerienced parody writer, and probably realized this after you posted. Some of the lines seem to have an extra beat here or there but for most part it paces very well. I liked the choices you made regarding which words to keep and and which to rhyme internally. The overall idea is great
(ABC4-I) Missed out some of the humour, seeing as Australia doesn't have Wal-Mart...pacing was tight, though.
Super job parody-ing Super stores. Very entertaining.
above was for ABC4-I
(ABC4) dinner plates for 3.98? Holy Boxing Day sale Batman - I'm qantasing over - very funny write Mikey, and some cool detail gets - 555 - and great title sub too
(ABC4) Very Creative and original Mikey. . .not your typical style at all.
I think Wal-Mart is so cheap that if you can't afford their men's slacks that you're in trouble, and I doubt that they have layaway. Highly creative write Mikey.
Matthias: They stopped layaway services last spring.
(ABC) You are the adman, you are the adman! (Seriously, you should go into advertising!) I avoid Wal-Mart like the plague, myself—a bastion of über-conservatism—but you almost made me want to shop there. =P
