| Parody Written by: | Douglas W. Coulter |
Anyone who has done much traveling should apprieciate this.Bon aptetite
I had the oyster soup with bread and cheese
and now I'm on the restroom floor upon my knees
the idol made of porcelin I tightly squeeze
so sad to have been there
And as I lose my lunch the seventh time
a list of food born pathogens asaults my mind
imagine Typhoid Mary cooks where I just dined
so sad to have been there
Traveling I've seen the most miserable times in all my life
On the road trauma has left many scars upon my life
When Montazuma strikes revenge is bold
my bowels kick into overdrive a hundred fold
I should have checked the water scorce like I'd been told
so sad to have been there
And now the bano's full I wait my turn
I clench my cheeks and dance a bit and sorely yearn
as part of my anatomy begins to burn
so sad to have been there
Traveling I've seen the most miserable times in all my life
on the road trauma has left many scars in all my life
Don't leave home you don't know how bad things are so don't go far
don't leave home you don't know how bad things are so don't go far
and now I'm on the restroom floor upon my knees
the idol made of porcelin I tightly squeeze
so sad to have been there
And as I lose my lunch the seventh time
a list of food born pathogens asaults my mind
imagine Typhoid Mary cooks where I just dined
so sad to have been there
Traveling I've seen the most miserable times in all my life
On the road trauma has left many scars upon my life
When Montazuma strikes revenge is bold
my bowels kick into overdrive a hundred fold
I should have checked the water scorce like I'd been told
so sad to have been there
And now the bano's full I wait my turn
I clench my cheeks and dance a bit and sorely yearn
as part of my anatomy begins to burn
so sad to have been there
Traveling I've seen the most miserable times in all my life
on the road trauma has left many scars in all my life
Don't leave home you don't know how bad things are so don't go far
don't leave home you don't know how bad things are so don't go far

Apart from a few typo's (something I know about), quite fun to read, and it's not an original Christmas song, not that there's anything wrong with that.
Nauseous .........but good 5s
Been there, done that... REALLY! Somehow I just never thought of putting it to music. VERY Funny. Great pacing. The perfect song for a traveler's lament.
