Song Parodies -> Crime of the Season
| Original Song Title: | "Time of the Season" |
| Original Performer: | The Zombies |
| Parody Song Title: | "Crime of the Season" |
| Parody Written by: | Michael Pacholek |
William Tong already has one with this title, but this is on a completely different subject. Not that I object to his version. The Zombies also replace Warren Zevon (may he now sleep peacefully) as last in the alphabet among the acts I've parodied. ABC (the guys who did "When Smokey Sings") are still first, mainly because I hate ABBA, though I'm open to a Lee Aaron song (not to mention to her... WOW...)

I take it the people you mentioned have been guilty of taking performance enhancement drugs or just plain drugs and have been convicted. Pretty serious problem drugs, and young people watching their favorite athletes do drugs does not help the situation. I'll not call your song a parody because it does not make me laugh. It seems to be well written and has angered me. 5, 5, 5.
Well, atleast we agree baseball is a sport. I realise the song is kinda too short to get digs in at McGuire and BALCO as well. 555. PS- Kim, they don't always have to make you laugh. In fact, very few OS make me laugh hysterically.
Thought I knew the song, but good job anyway. :)
I prefer performance-enhancing tugs.
good message...5s
I agree with the opinions expressed in this parody. 555
I will have to do one about Mark McGwire, though I don't expect the odd spelling of his name (a W where a U usually is) to be part of it. On the day he hit Number 62, September 8, 1998, I threw a bunch of sluggers into a song and produced "We Didn't Start With McGwire," which I've never posted here. I may have to rewrite it considering all that's happened in the last six years and change.
I'm a little late to say so, but a good parody, Michael.
Performance-enhancing tugs, Johnny? As longshoremen go...
