The Lyrics
Zodiac
[IB]
“Hey baby, what’s your Sign?”
“If I said you had a beautiful body would you hold it against me? …”
[Disinterested Girl]
“I’ve heard that line before…”
[IB]
“From someone interesting ?”
[DG]
“Naaa…just Matthias…”
[IB]
“I should have known…”
Zodiac…Zodiac
Tell me my fate
Find me a girl
Get me a date
Zodiac…Zodiac
Show me a sign
And send someone I’ll call “mine”
Zodiac…Zodiac
I'm a nice guy
Loving and sweet
Caring and shy
Maybe a Libra or Virgo will do
Or Gemini girl…or two
A Leo
Can be expressive
An Aries
Might be worth a few stabs
A Cancer
Can be possesive
I just hope that she doesn’t give me the crabs
Zodiac…Zodiac
I am forlorn
Match me with some
Hot Capricorn
Or Sagittarius…I will agree
To anything that
Squats to pee…
[here’s the “spoken-sung middle section” omitted by Leo Jay]
[Matthias]
“So why play hard to get DG ? I thought you dug me for my looks”.
[IB chuckles]
[Matthias con't]
“And you know I’m a Gemini…right ?”
[IB]
“Well, so what?
I’m a Scorpio just like Agrimorfee
And we think that we’re the best…”
[Matthias]
‘I guess he’s got me beat honey
My twins are no match for his stinger
Unless I…”
[throws hood over his head, imitating BAD]
[singing]
IB, oh IB,
Have I found a girl for you!
She’s witty…she's smart!
OK…she's 4 foot 2.
But she’s a nice girl…a good cook too…
You…
Should take her out to dinner
And if you haven’t scored
Then you’ll just have to ask
Your friends on the board
Kristof is a Taurus
And Peter is as well
Jeff Reuben is a Gemini
As if you couldn’t tell…
They’re here to help you…with good advice… right?
Right!
Now Red Ant is a Cancer
And Chuck’s a Cancer too
Together they can muster
Good ideas for you
I know what Arwen would say
Like a good Aquarian
“Well, you’re dumpy…you’re homely…you’re losing your hair
Be glad she’s not a man!”
Zodiac…Zodiac
Now life is sweet
Thank you for my
New Pisces treat
We both love watersports
And I’m replete
With extra thick rubber sheets
I know that many will say
This is all…Astrological crap
But, please don’t
Be so judgmental
Astrology just gives a basic map…
Zodiac…Zodiac
Now I’m a fan
Warm Pisces girl
Scorpian man
Who has the answers
To all of life’s quests
So,
I’m thanking you all
I’m just a goof
And you are the proof…

Oops...The title is supposed to be "Zodiac"...for the "Z" round...
Man when you burn me you burn me. This was absoutely histerical Invisible Boy. I would have loved this just as much if I was only one of the names mentioned, becuase you spent so much time in researching the zodiacs of our Amiright Cast that I am impressed, but no I had to play second "fiddle" (Talk about a Jeff Reuben). I have to be the person who parodies failing with the ladies the most on the site with "Valentine's Day", "These Pick Up Line Suck", and "Dope" that you really got me. I would LOVE to hear this recorded.
The stars predict a 4-4-4 in your very near future! Funny stuff, made me laugh, but some of your pacing in the middle section was rough, and some jokes near the end got flabby. Still, cute and clever!
especially liked the crab lines and "squat to pee
The Cancer and crabs was a stroke of genius. I'm supposed to be a Scorpiio. What can you do with that one? By the way, did you know that Jane Russell and Angelina Jolie are Geminis? Do you get my drift? Full moons rising in June.
I guess that explains why some people think I'm pompous.:) Well researched little musical production number--we'll all have to wear little babushkas on our heads and dance around to make it really work. Nice job, IB! (Melanie seems to have picked up my critiquing style).
You can e-mail Chucky to fix the title...
I'm judgemental: 5s!
Mama Mia!! IB, Sir, if you are a Scorpio, a Pisces Lady is the best, indeed: Burton & Liz -- Demi & Bruce(pisces). This is a connection that is never truly broken, for Scorpio is the King of the Zodiac! My Pisces ex-hubby still hasn't figured it out, yet . . .
Thanks for the comments
Yeah...I messed-up the title...posting too late!!!
Matty...I couldn't resist...I was thinking of your "These Pick Up Lines Suck" parody.
Melanie Lee...I've never been called "flabby" before...but I really like it! You're right about the pacing in the middle section. I just thought no one (except Johnny D maybe) would notice. Really...THANKS AGAIN for pointing it out.
alvin...as always...thank you
2Eagle...I think I know what you are trying to tell me.What does it mean to say, "I'm supposed to be a Scorpiio"...you are or you aren't brother...
Agri...I guess we share our sign...and our pompousness...Major Winchesters, the two of us
John...thanks for your judgement
littleScorPia...Now I know why I like you so much. Actually, my wife and I are BOTH Scorpios...when things are good they are very very good...but when they are bad...well never mind...

Haha, Matty imitating me, Very well done, very interesting. . .I didn't realize I share a sign with Kristof and Peter (Taurus here also). . .cool

My faves on this little gem are the same as 2Eagle and Alvin. Extremely well researched. Witty, clever, robust and fresh. High fives. I guess it didn't trip Melanie's trigger as it did mine. I saw nothing wrong with it at all.
Now since we are talking astrology let me quote a Steven Wright snippet.
"I stayed up all night last night playing poker with a deck of tarot cards. I got a full house and four people died." padump-dum... tchzzzzzzz...

Great song. BTW, i'm an Aquarius- my brother is a Saggitarius and our dad is a Leo. My element is water, my brother's is Earth, and our fathers one is Fire. My chinese zodiac animal is the tiger, my brother's is a Rat, and our dad's is a Monkey. Agri's chinese zodiac animal must be a pig then, then again 2Eagle and IB must also be Pigs too. Oh so that's why I was attacking Agri a long while back- I was being slightly taken over by the tiger's power- it was almost like I was "becoming" the Tiger- wow, freaky. Great song anyway.
The chinese counterpart animal of Scorpio is the Pig. Hey wait a minute....(sniffs the air) I smell bacon. We've got three pigs in our mist Agri, 2Eagle and IB. Hey Agri....oink oink oink!
My sign is Scorpio the Pig according to the Red Neck Zodiac. Saggitarius the Mule Skinner is next.
Sir TwoEagle, let's refer to the animal as the 'Boar" it sounds better . . . just as they do in Tuscany ! Mama Mia !!
Great set ups in the verses for the punchlines, IB. Could have swore I was a Leo though. =)
(ABC) Raises eyebrow. . .pig? I don't even want to know what Taurus is--IB you already know I love this one. . .a new star is born this year in 2008. . .
Hey...this was too much fun! For the record, though, I never call people homely. To their face. ; )
Good job on all the birthday research...I'm sure it made a lot of people smile in more ways than one. And Leo Jay and I haven't appeared in a parody together in AGES. And I mean AGES. I'm thrilled! =)
