| Original Song Title: | "Your Song" |
| Original Performer: | Elton John |
| Parody Song Title: | "Everybody Else's Song" |
| Parody Written by: | Claude Prez |
Greetings, friend! Tired of being left out of all those pandering "tribute songs", honoring so-called "writers" who've apparently gained so-called "admiration" for their crappy, so-called "songs"? Well, today it's YOUR turn! Just fill in the blanks and prepare to be red-faced with delighted embarrassment, amigo....
It was really quite funny, that (your name here) song
I've been a huge fan of (your name here) for so long
I don't know Weird Al but, boy if I did
I'd tell him bow down to that (your name here) kid
If I were decisive....but then again, no
Or maybe some asslick out to impress some schmo
Might write a lame tribute, that don't ring true
But (your name here)'s special, and so--this song's for you
And you can tell everybody
That this is your song
I doubt that they'll give a crap but
I could be wrong
I hope you don't mind--
I hope you don't mind--
If I tell the whole world
The one I most like is
(your name here) for sure
I went to your song list and I gave lots of fives
I saw some bad comments, like some "this don't rhyme" jive
Rhyming's overrated; and cleverness is too
Your songs are the greatest, just because they're by you
So I hope you'll forgive me, if I seem insincere
But you're the greatest writer since William Shakespeare
The reason that I say all these things so selflessly
Is you should be famous, now you say it to me
And you can tell everybody
That this is your song
I doubt they'll believe you, unless
You're Elton John
I hope you go blind!
I hope you go blind!
Then get pooped on by birds
I wonder if I'll get
Away with this verse
I hope you don't mind--
I HOPE you don't mind--
That I put down in words....
I want (your name here) to
Get what they deserve....

Great job! 555!
My recent "MAD Mari" parody about The Duncans notwithstanding (what does "notwithstanding" mean anyway? Ah, who cares, I just like its impressively pompous sound), this satirical swipe at the whole "tribute parody" concept is brilliant! 555 . . . okay, somebody out there, please, write and post a gushing and embarassing tribute to Claude Prez - now THAT would be sweet justice! ;-D
Great job! 5/5/5. However, I think this should be 70s because Elton didn't have any 60s stuff.
Wow, thanks for saying all those great things about (insert my name here.) (Insert my name here) would be very humbled, if it wasn't so very true. I especially like the clever way (insert your name here) managed to honor (insert my name here) without hurting (insert everyone else's names here)'s feelings. Great job, (insert your name here)! (Insert your name here) should be famous, too! ;)
(your name here) enjoyed this very much. So did (my name here).
Who knew that there were tribute songs on this site? Clever and funny - unforturtunately, this is not the norm and we'll have to delete this parody.
GENIUS!!!!!!!!!!!!! True Genius! Excellent Claude! And Im not just saying this because this song is so obviously about me ;-)
I've been waiting years for this! I am so choked up - I don't know what to say! ;-)
Great idea man. The name-dropping does get kinda old after a while.
Why thank you (you know who I mean). I was glad to see you respond to this; I just knew you'd know it was about you. Can't wait to see your next parody; I just know I'll love it. Oh, and thanks everyone else too.
very clever, Claude. (P.Robinson)
this is great
Well, I had to give you just one for pacing, because when I put my name in, it didn't scan at all ;-) But seriously, this is seriously funny
Wow, two tributes to me on the same day? I really must be as cool as I think I am. I'm not so sure I like the part where I go blind and get pooped on by birds, but lines like "If I were decisive...but then again no" will help me get over it. This is exceptional.
i just don't know what to say...I prepared a speech (here it is..). I'd like to thank the Academy, my dog Randy, all you little insignificant people who made me what I am today, but who I really don't give a f**k about...and most of all, Claude Prez!! 555
You SHOULD be famous.... now you say it to me! What a great line!
