This is about a guy that really enjoys his work...even dances to it. The midi is...http://www.christyku.com/sound/sound.html Just scroll down
I'm just a wond'ring in this place why there is girth.
There are so many people who are buy'n for a fee.
So smile I'm hashing and see so many nerds
"Language barriers broken, now we find the key"
And if you want to dine and some change point at the view
And you're the only other person that knows, just show me.
I'm just a slinger of hash browns at this stand.
I get the picture and start browning your burg
What do you want on it, we gotta agree.
A thousand styles you see I do amaze
You know that I am jiving, I flip burg and twirl, see
You gasp at my flaunt and expect your burg to be through
But I catch it on the your browned bun, you see me
I'm just a slinger of hash browns at this stand.
And with a sleight of hand I make a steeple
Make a steeple of your toppings put it on a half
And I will not make it worse than all the unbrightened people...people
I'm not scorching your burg, scorching your burg.
"I'm just a wand'ring on the face of this earth"
No roots abound me..work anywhere cuz I'm free
While your unrav'ling and hear so many words
I've got your eggs all broken, let me cook I plea
And if you want the kind of change that is due to you
And if you're the only other person to know, don't tell me.
I'm just a slinger of hash browns at this stand.
-instrumental-
I'm just a slinger of hash browns at this stand.
I've got fries at my command for all the people
For all the people and with more food in reserve
And when you see a frightened person, he is frightened at the people
Who are scorching his fries, scorching your burg.
"Music is the traveler crossing the world"
Eating so many burgers bridging the seas
I'm just a slinger of hash browns at this stand.

Justin, John, Graeme, Ray, and Mike would get a chuckle from this, Pat! Good job.
Let's hope, Johnny...thanks!
Oh...what kind of a chuckle??
A hearty chuckle born out of years of experience swilling Guinness and eating Great Britain's fabled fish-and-chips!
"Scorching your burg!" LOL! Isn't this such a fun song to do? The Moody Blues best single, IMHO.
Thanks, Mer! Glad I chose this one 'cause I didn't mind listening to it again and again.
Now I know why "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day."
Thanks, Michael!
Very good title, good parody. There were 2 or 3 lines that you did not change (I know, you attributed them with ""s), but I think the parody would have been better if you had been able to change them.
Thanks, JJ
good parody....nice work with the phrasing, too...this song is tough
Thanks, alvin!
(FOOD)Yummy.
(FOOD) Great Moody Food here. Glad to see an MB song that I know. Here, I'm slinging these 5s at ya.
Thanks Agri. and Guy!
(FOOD) I feel like a burden to all of these OS I DK. (I'm so hopelessly dated.) Fortunately this was a fine read nonetheless.
Thanks Luke.
(FOOD) now this I would estimate would be from Adagio's middle to late cubist years - note the artful but still identifiable wordplay - 555
Thanks Stuart! (didn't mispell your name this time...lol)
(Food) See above!
FOOD - [insert comment]
Good job Adagio, I like this one.
Thanks Johnny, Saider and Jeff!
(FOOD) hmmm...thought I already read and voted on this back when it came out, but I was house-sitting around that period of time so I wasn't always able to get on-line since the house in question has no computer in it....5's...very fine job...
Thanks Paul!
(Food) That was great 555!
Thanks Jack!

(ABC) Great MB parody!
Thanks Leo.
(ABC05) Commented before, but just wanted to point out the poetics of "scorching his burg." Sounds like a euphemism!
(I-05) I have to agree with Agrimorfee on that line ^ there. Another great MB parody from you Adagio.
Thanks Agrimorfee and Red Ant.
Anybody that DKTOS this one, use the midi that I provided on the messageboard...this one doesn't seem to work anymore.

(ABC) Had to give it all 5's, absolutely great!
ABC--hard to believe I haven't stopped by this one before...good job!
Thanks Rich and Arwen.
(ABC) Mmmm hashbrowns. Damn, sling me some of those over hear and I'll sling you back tri-fives.
Enter The Burg. Still a hashing parody, Adagio! The midi link didn't work, though.
Thanks Mikey and Luke. Did you use the midi that I put in the contest? This one does not work anymore. Use that one, please.
( I ) - "What do you want on it, we gotta agree" - so if you don't agree with what I want on it, you won't make one for me? (shocked) well, I never!! - already commented - good work on a great OS, adagio
Thanks, Stu. THAT'S putting words in my mouth....druther a hamburger...lol
(ABC) A worthy (BURP!) contender !!!
Thanks Johnny.
(ABC-I) Nice work.
(ABC05) I could dance to this. Good work, Adagio..555
Thanks Scathe and Rick C.
(ABC) Funny stuff :)
(I) Love the OS,you did it well Pat
Thanks Adam and Dee !
ABC - Once again i feel like I'm missing something. DKTOS either. Must be an age thing.
Ethan, thanks for reading! It's about a fast food guy and I left a midi on the messageboard in the contests. :)
I still like this one...great choice of song title for the OS.
Thanks Jeff!
(ABC) DKTOS
I normally say "Take This McJob And Shove It", but I mean somebody has to like working at Burger King. Burg didn't really work, I know you were trying to pace and everything and it does perfectly, but "burg" just didn't settle too well in my stomach. Everything else was a pure 5-star dining experiance.
Thanks,Matthia Oh, I'm a recent 'returnee', too.. And just what is wrong with 'burg'? :
(Artistry) I'd forgotten about this one of yours, Pat. One of your earlier works, but it scans quite well and is pretty funny.
I just never heard a slang word besides "burger" for "hamburger" before. Bringing it a step past "burg" what's next "bug"? I don't know maybe that's my own lack of slang dictionary... I dunno...
Thanks, Jack!
(Artistry) This well-worn parody may smell a little stale, but it's still edible!
Thanks Agrimorfee!
(Artistry) This parody has sure made it's way around...this being my first look at it, I can say that it's absolutely delicious!
Thanks, bob!
(art) I couldn't put it better than I did in my previous 2 comments, Pat - way to honour a title-sub idea girl! (as Oprah might say) - it is definitely a while since I read one of your parodies, but your style just comes flooding back!
Great idea...Great parody. Left me hungry for more.
(Artistry) Mmmmmmmm... hash browns. Unlike Matthias I didn't mind the shortening of hamburger to one syllable. "I flip burg and twirl" really struck me as funny for some reason.
(Artistry) I have to be honest, I misread it at first as "bug" and that busted me up. . .enough of the burg controversy. . .I think it was creative Adagio, why aren't you in contests more often guy?
SHE must be very busy IRL, Dave. Maybe SHE will enter more often with that encouragement. :)
Thanks Aggie for clearing up that I'm a 'she'. : ) Thanks BAD, and Rex...yea...wondered what the fuss was about.
And you're right, Aggie....this girl WILL enter more often if acknowldged as such.
Well see, you have enter more often so that I can't make that assumption;) Sorry Adagio. . .so let me rephrase "I have to be honest, I misread it at first as "bug" and that busted me up. . .enough of the burg controversy. . .I think it was creative Adagio, why aren't you in contests more often girl?"
Oh...look above...this one won a medal and I've been in contests since they were invented. I even forget how long I've been here. But, I was and still am taking a 'burnt-out' break. Then I come back and everyone thinks I'm a noob (and a male)....lol
