The Lyrics

50 GREYS TO SHADE YOUR LOVER

The problems are all inside the book ‘bout B and D
The writing is cheesy and no logic there to see
They tried to make it into one big hit movie
About the fifty greys to shade your lover

Some thought that this might get gals hotter for their dude
Furthermore a little bondage might not be considered lewd
But she can’t beat herself, It’s not him that’s getting screwed
Reading the fifty greys to shade your lover

Just open her back, crack
Break out the whip, Kip
And show her a new toy, Roy
It’s all so kinky
Then show her the chain, Laine
Tell her not to yell much
And sign the contract, Mac
Before she gets free

She said, ”I never knew that I would love the pain
You seem to show up everywhere to get me to come again”
He said “I’m a rich bureaucrat”
But the book don’t explain
What are the fifty shades?

He said “Why don’t we both just sleep on nails tonight?
And you will leave in the morning with no tooth marks from the bite”
And then he flogged her, and I theorized that she was not too bright
To like the fifty greys book or this lover

Fifty greys between the covers

Just open her back, crack
Break out the whip, Kip
And show her a new toy, Roy
It’s all so kinky
Then show her the chain, Laine
Tell her not to yell much
And sign the contract, Mac
Before she gets free

I was taught that sex and violence were two pleasures to be enjoyed separately. But, I guess busy people have to combine their indulgences.

Very topical and funny; strange movie with awful reviews and millions and millions going to see it. Hmmm. You get 5 shades of grey for this one.

it seems today that all you see is violence in movies and sex... in movies too! 5's

The book did not win a Pulitzer Prize; the movie will not win an Academy Award; but this spoof should be up for some kind of award.

Hi Rick - good to see you around :) I find all the hype around what by all descriptions was an extremely poorly-written book to be rather strange.. but it has inspired some pretty good spoofs, like this one, so I guess I shouldn't complain too much. In fact, reading all of these makes me realize I don't really need to read the book or see the movie. Thanks for that.

Seduced alternately by your soft words and sharp wit--fifteen lashes!

Crappy novel, crappy film, and mediocre parody. BDSM is not romantic, just for perverted deviants. Glorification of sexual deviancy passing as latest Hollywood trashfest is reprehensible. No awards here.

This is not a mediocre parody. Methinks Bystander has allowed their opinions to shade their judgement of satire. 555.

Superb writing on this parody.....Liked TJC's comment and Ag's too

Nice to come by and visit here sometimes. I've been writing classical pieces, a musical and my usual weird songs. Phil, I see you are about to pass me at number 9. Revolutionary, man. John, Agri...nice to hear from you too Rick

:) - at current output, I'll catch you up at about this time next year. Writing parodies isn't my main focus at the moment, either, though the law here has changed so we're now allowed to sing them without prior permission. Which is nice.

Maybe I'll get back into it and keep up...Wow, didn't know it was against the law there. I did an experiment with "Hey Jude" where I parodied it, then changed enough notes to not get sued.....but you could still tell

Rick! Great to see you! Nifty ways to flay your lover eh? I guess I'll have to go see the movie. For parody research of course.
