Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

messin' up a ditty
then signin' with one's name
how we pick a song apart
and leave the tune in shame
take a song that someone loves
till its recognized no more
its manners, that we lack
messin' up a ditty

verses, gone all wrong
all twisted, the refrain
there's a lot of zany people
who have an urge to maim
things are written for their peers
comprised of lunacy
the nuttiness abounds here
messin' up a ditty

messin' up a ditty
authorship is claimed
it must break composer's hearts
and cause them so much pain
when a work on which they've slaved
just becomes a punster's chore
their child has been attacked
messin' up a ditty

its gotten off the track
messin' up a ditty
its gone and won't come back
messin' up a ditty

where's my ditty ?
where's my pretty little ditty ?
where's my ditty ?
where's my pretty little ditty ?
where's my ditty ?
where's my pretty little ditty ?
