Parody Song Title:

"Buying"

Parody Written by:

The govt. and markets think that the way out of the current economic problem is for more buying. In the song, the (*) represents their thinking.
I was all tight for a while, I was vile in the aisle,
For my pockets were light, had no cash to excite
All I bought was red Jello,
Tuna fish that smells, I couldn't dwell
And I'm not eyeing stuff that's new, buying with no clue.

And you (*), said you're wrong, sat there handing me a loan,
A loan for buying, sighing, trying, buying,
Don't guard your shopping planned, for the crutch of demand
will start you buying.

I bought that lie, was roving through
Shops anew, debts flew,
I love to spree in store, as I did explore,
Bazaar fling, credit just grew,
So, please don't shove me, and I'll always be
Buying stuff that's new, buying, got no clue,

Yes, I'm a pawn and from this moment on
I'll be buying, sighing, trying, buying
Yeah, buying,
Buying,
Stuff that's new.

Ironic on the day I post my parody about ASCAP, you parody a song by the artist who was at the center of the landmark 2 Live Crew decision, simple yet well done, 5s
