Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

Ken: cool dude, snappy dresser, but.....
Ken, why is it you don't have a shlong?
Seems that your creators got it wrong
Though you wear the nicest clothes
A life without a hose
Is full of misery
It's sad that you can't pee
(It's sad that you can't pee)

Ken, you're wondrin' where does Barbie go?
She's been gettin' down with GI Joe!
She says that you're really sweet
But 'cause you are sans meat
And don't wear combat gear
You're out on your fake rear
(You're out on your fake rear)

You used to be..."fab" and "cool"
What you need...is a tool
(You used to be..."fab" and "cool")
(What you need...is a tool)

Ken, it's time to go back to Mattel
Ask them if they can give you some "swell"
Maybe a piercing or two
A chinese script tattoo
I'm sure they'll think again
And they'll fill your Calvins, Ken
(Poor Ken)
Poor Ken
(Poor Ken)
Poor Ken

Robert...thanks; this is my first parody in weeks and I'm a bit rusty. Arwen...how can you NOT know this? It's MJ's ultimate weepy (written about his pet rat, I think)..recorded before he grew up, became white and weird. Get thee to a record store!! :-)

Kristof, this is wonderful! I laughed so hard my boss came over and asked, "Oh, are you on your parody site again?"

This was great! We just finished a parody of "Ben" ourselves, but we are holding it until we can have a recording of it ready... (it's not about Ken, tho'...)

I added a comment right after my other one that said "oh, but it's hilarious." I'm not sure why it didn't post, but here it is again!

Ashkicksass: Thereīs a five minute waiting period before you can get your Texan Chainsaw Machinegun... I mean second message to the same parody on itīs way. Chucky had to install a message flooding control device because of little spindlers and other bites.

A tune about a homunculus with no schlong set to an original by a homunculus with no schlong. Inspired!

I nearly had my dick chopped off by my Ex-wife. But anyway, I must say it's sad that Ken doesn't have a shlong!!!!

(ABC05) Only can a song to a rat be changed to a song about a doll that's even more funny than the original! 555

ABC. The only MJ song I know is Beat It...but this is funny as hell. The "sans meat" line cracked me up :-))

(K) This was before my time, Kristof, so it's like I've hit a priceless relic in an archeological dig - hilarious and witty and everything KR - "But 'cause you are sans meat - And don't wear combat gear - You're out on your fake rear" - LMAO - 555

ABC: DKTOS either...but poor Ken. He got hosed.

(ABC05)- Stu picked out my faves as well. I heard there was a tattoed Barbie that was pulled quickly (or perhaps never released). Of course if Ken was anatomically correct Barbie would require the same treatment. 555
