| Original Song Title: | "Yesterday" |
| Original Performer: | The Beatles |
| Parody Song Title: | "Master Bates" |
| Parody Written by: | Rick Cormier |
I've been away for a few days. Got this idea from a comment I made after reading Rick D's "Motel Off the Road".
Master Bates, in that dingy, old motel he waits
Guests check in at four, they're gone by eight
All victimized by Master Bates
Suddenly, you are half the girl you used to be
You'll fit better in the trunk in threes
Oh, Master Bates strikes suddenly
Why he fidgets so, I don't know, a quirky trait
He's a peephole person for sure, this Master Bates
Master Bates, offers motel rooms at real cut rates
Mother never lets him go on dates
So, he just stays in, Master Bates
Don't give up your keys to this twit, a poor valet
All guests cars end up in the lake and there they stay
Master Bates, offers motel rooms at real cut rates
Mother never lets him go on dates
So, he just sits there, Master Bates
Hmm Hmm Hmm Hmm
Hmm Hmm Hmmmmmmmmm

Oooh, clever on a number of levels, you "psycho" you!
Very good
I was expecting something else, but from you I knew it would at least be funny, so I took a chance. Really good job! 5's
Always happy to provide inspiration. Even if it's just you cracking yourself up with witty repartee.
Just for reference, I recognize the pun involved here, but since the parody subject isn't about that other subject... it's fine by me
Dare I say it? Hitchcockian. 5s
Real good job,here...I think Martin Ballsome and Janet Lay were in this film, too
Thanks Agri, Royce, Adagio, Rick D, ChuckyG and AFW. For the record, Chucky, I have no idea what that other subject is but, John and AFW left a couple of horrific double entendres in their comments that shocked me.
Nicely done. Very funny.
Thanks, Leo.
magnificent...one of your best...and THAT'S saying something...5s plus
Not much time to check out new entries today, but of course I had to with this one, loved the "cut rates" pun! :-)
This could have been a sticky situation... especially considering Norman's affinity for knives... but you remain a cut above.
What was with that hum job at the end? I'm offended!
Good job Rick (hate to say that but everyone already took the good puns).
I shower you with 5's
Thanks Alvin, Peter, Michael, Rick D, Red Ant and PMS. Rick, that wasn't a hum job. It was the sound of the fly that Master Bates is not going to harm in any way. Oh no, he'll just sit there.....
So I just sit here....voting fives. Great stuff, Rick.
Rick C: You had to dredge that scene up, huh?
Well done (Ah...but the servant waits...)
nicely done, Rick - did you toss around the ovious "cut-throat rates" for "real cut rates" although I know the former isn't really in keeping with the film - Psycho parodies have suddenly almost become a sub-category! - 555
Thank you Dee, Michael, Jeff and Stuart. Stu, no, I didn't think of that line. My wife says I'm oblivious to the obvious. :-)
Mine says that too (about me, not you) - although she phrases it more "You ugly daft baboon" - why is that?
(ABC05) First to comment, still works.
(ABC05-M) This parody slays me!
(ABC05-M) Already commented...still funny, Rick!
(ABC05) See above!
(M) already commented - and really good job, Rick - congrats to you and your mother, I mean to you and you
(ABC) It takes a brave man, Rick, to take on Yesterday considering the Jesterdays thread...well done! 555
ABC--I was all set to blush, and found myself just giggling instead. Great job...
(ABC) Very funny :-D
(ABC) Heh heh heh AAAAAIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEE !!!!!!!!!
(M) One of these days, I'll have to take a stab at this OS. ;D
I thought I commented on this already... evidently not: maybe I just couldn't think of anything suitably witty to say ;-) Very unexpected, Rick, and not even a mention of Pugwash (this reference may not travel across the Atlantic, but the Brits will know what I'm talking about)
Thanks everyone. OK Philbo, what is Pugwash???
