The Lyrics
He thought fights were fine,
'Til the time
He went too far
Killing him
On a whim.
'Nother came along
He was strong.
That's what he thought
But he died too.
Did not mean to kill,
They're getting better than me.
I say no way.
They're in flames, I'm on a spree.
I guess I'm what I am.
A most contrary man
That contrary man.
I would use a spear,
Because I shove all these nerds.
And my swing
Is a sting.
Must be number one,
Bein' one who tramples you.
Right or wrong.
'Cause I'm strong.
Don't know that I'll kill,
Since they have sense and fear me.
If they don't stray
I'll let them play behind me.
Let them know I am,
A most contrary man.
This contrary man.
Don't know that I'll kill,
Since they have sense and fear me.
If they don't stray
I'll let them play behind me.
Let them know I am,
A most contrary man.
Most contrary man.
Most contrary man.
Most contrary man.
'Til the time
He went too far
Killing him
On a whim.
'Nother came along
He was strong.
That's what he thought
But he died too.
Did not mean to kill,
They're getting better than me.
I say no way.
They're in flames, I'm on a spree.
I guess I'm what I am.
A most contrary man
That contrary man.
I would use a spear,
Because I shove all these nerds.
And my swing
Is a sting.
Must be number one,
Bein' one who tramples you.
Right or wrong.
'Cause I'm strong.
Don't know that I'll kill,
Since they have sense and fear me.
If they don't stray
I'll let them play behind me.
Let them know I am,
A most contrary man.
This contrary man.
Don't know that I'll kill,
Since they have sense and fear me.
If they don't stray
I'll let them play behind me.
Let them know I am,
A most contrary man.
Most contrary man.
Most contrary man.
Most contrary man.

Contrary to popular belief Neil Diamond is not the subject of this parody. Nice job Pat.
Who is it about, Pat?
Good job. I too would like to know who it's about....?
oooOOOooooo....mysterious subject.
Hey, just so you all know, this isn't about me.
Is he Conan The Barbarian ?
Is it Chuck Barris?
Hmm, could it be......??
Hehehe...ya think?
I've got it! He's Duncan McCleod, "The Highlander", right?
No....none of those. :D
No more guesses? ;)
Is he bigger than a breadbox?
I give up...Who?
Is he bigger than ME ?
Edmund, I think I know who you are...if so, much bigger.
Adagio (and others) - I KNOW who it is, and I'm using this song for the parody. Should be up tomorrow. Adagio, nice job here, 5's.
Thanks, Paul! ;)
