| Parody Song Title: | "(Get off of my) Gladiolas" |
| Parody Written by: | MasonR |
There was a guy who lived across the street where I grew up who most of the
neighborhood decided was a hermit. Put a toe on his grass, and he'd be out there
yelling at you to get the hell away. Every neighborhood should have a guy like that.

"..my hoe and I, we will stay" HA-HA-HA! Lol, got a great kick out of this piece, well done, MasonR. 5-5-5.
Very clever!
It's interesting--some of the lines people point out are their favorites were actually lines that I added at the last minute, kind of as an afterthought! The "my hoe" line was one of them. Thanks for the feedback; I'm learning a lot!
Would I be the only pedant in town to point out that the plural is "Gladioli"? ;-) If this is a first parody, it's an excellent one - lots of fun and as close to the original tune as I can remember (don't know it that well, though)
