Parody Song Title:

"Victoria Beckham: "I Just Aren't That Clever""

Parody Written by:

Stuart McArthur

Okay, Posh Spice might not be too smart, but she did manage to write this song...

I just aren't that clever
I thought LA life would please me
but they ridicule and tease me
I won't go out at night
coz those homeless men might
disease me

I just aren't that clever
just want David to caress me
kiss me, bonk me, then re-dress me
I will always be cute
coz I've told David to
deep-freeze me

I don't - have - thoughts!
for what good would thoughts do me?
I starred in Spice Girls Movie
I sang a
SONG...
(oxymoron)

I just aren't that clever
I'm quite sure your little finger
has more braincells than this singer
I was pretty back then
but since I've gotten thin
I'm prettier!!

I don't - use - words
that have more than 2 syllbles
Syllbles make me misrble
Words that are
LONG...
I say all wrong

I just aren't that clever
that clever
that clever
I just aren't that clever
that clever
that clever
repeat this line forever
forever
forever
forever
forever
forever
forever
forever
forever
forever
forever
forever
forever
(ewww, it's a homeboy! ...DAVID!! DAVID!!!!)

I never liked Victoria Beckham as she is soooooooo full of herself, but a great parody take on her. 545

Looks like we're on the same tangent today Stu, I too went and put words in a female narrators mouth. As for Posh, was I the only one who noticed that she did her US debut already as an extra in the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie, as one of those skeletons!

Brilliant! "Syllbles make me misrble" was sheer genius :-D

And it's posted on Geri Halliwell's birthday, no less. I remember the '98 World Cup, and Jay Leno said the scores were all zero-zero, and said it was like the Spice Girls on "Jeopardy!"

Leave it to Stu to give away Victoria's secret... How does she pronounce her four-syllble name? Victra?
Peregrin - August 10, 2007 - Report this comment
God work Stu! Like Phil, the "syllbles" line got me as well!

thanks Jason alvin and John (yes-just before re-dressing her)
thanks Jack and Peter (I'll check yours out)
thanks Phil, MP (lol) and Agri (MAY-JUH????)
good point, TT - "Vicky" or "Airhead" I'm tipping
thanks Pippin and matthias :-)

Excellent spoof with clever substitions.

"Syllbles make me misrble" ; indeed, genius. Loved the rhyming, as well as the target of the parody. You ought to have used "sphincter" instead of "finger" though, heh heh. 555, my clever man.

Never a mis-step, Stuart, and this is no exception to the rule of fives (the vote, not 'the girls')! You're so good its-- Scary!

thanks JJ
thanks Jack - yes, I was going to mention there was another finger/singer couplet coming up in mine, but thought it sounded too shameless-pluggy, but you're right, that is why I commented on that aspect of your parody ;-)
thanks TJC - Posh was always the sexy one, but looking at her now, if they ever reform, she'd have to become the new Scary

Came across this in the list of songs for the ABC contest and the title made me laugh loudly at work. Had to share :)

Stu - This aren't half bad and a lot more clever than the subject that it spoofs. Well Done!
Agrimorfee - November 13, 2009 - Report this comment
(ABC) Stu I owe you an explanation...I think when I first read this there was a recent SNL skit with a Victoria Beckham character saying "MAY-JUH!" throughout the whole thing. Still a MAY-JUH work from you, buddy.

ABC(5)_U/V Nice bit of celeb bashing!!!...555!!!

(ABC5) Barely know who Victoria is, but the parody was still well-written and the pacing was excellent. 555
Matthias - November 16, 2009 - Report this comment
This parody sounds like it could have been written by Mr. Red Ant (the King of mockery) himself. Stuart McArthur doing this seems a bit out of place but still did a fantastic lovely job bending it like Beckham.

Very good job on taking her on. Matty--perhaps you forget "Watch Madonna's Movies". . .among others;) Classic

(ABC) Man,.this is some coooooooold stuff! And then that 2nd bridge cracked me up! Great! 555 and community college. (Hey, I happen to be in a community college computer room right now!).

Thanks, Matt, but Stu is the king of celebrity bashes. Even after two+ years, this parody is still quite excellent.
