This one MAY not need explanation. :D Here's a sample of the song itself...http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000001F5Y/ref=pm_dp_ln_m_2/104-2084040-7763168?v=glance&s=music&vi=samples
I write it down
My muse is met
I hope that it swings cause song's my pet
Confuse the folks they think I joke
Fun of them I do not poke, I spoke
This crowd of cools think I'm high
I'm afraid I may be shy
'Cuz feelings I just imply.
Became adept at wording it right
I sowed and smiled
Of this I write
I do try to define this piece
A passenger trying to make peace
That howl is me, fly I try
I'm afraid I may be shy
'Cuz feelings I just imply.
(I strut, I stroll)
(Reach down into my soul)
I state...NO,I AIN'T OFF MY ROCKER!
~~ very strange musical interlude ~~
I step onward with my waning sight
The crowd just smiled
My words ain't trite
Wonder why it seems like caprice?
I managed to write, now I'm at peace
This site is now asking why.
What do you mean is their cry.
I'm not addled, I'm just shy.
(I strut, I stroll)
(My life is in my soul)
I state...NO, I AIN'T OFF MY ROCKER!
'Cuz feelings I just imply.
My muse is met
I hope that it swings cause song's my pet
Confuse the folks they think I joke
Fun of them I do not poke, I spoke

I'm afraid I may be shy

Thank you, whoever...you didn't leave a comment.
Yee-haw, Pat, I dig it AND I get it! Good job. 5's
Pat, that 5-5-5 is mine..... I posted that vote, and just as I was starting to write my comment, I had to step away from the computer for 15 or 20 minutes.
Oh...I should have known. :)
I guess this did need an explanation. :/
Not for me, Pat, I love it.
Thank you! :) :) Johnny
Loved it, too. 5's...
Thanks, Paul. :)
yes you are
Thanks? :D
SOTM - Well done Pat. I'm not shy about giving you some 5s for this.
Really rather cool, Pat.
When I can't get off my rocker anymore, that's the end.
SOTM--For some reason I started singing this to "We Are the Champions." Couldn't figure out why I kept getting lost...anyway...good job, Adagio.
Thanks Guy, Phil, Rick and Arwen!
From your title, I thought this was gonna be Carmen Electra talking about Dave Navarro. Heh heh. "Very strange musical interlude," indeed. Just shy, eh? Can't we get you to admit to being just a LITTLE addled?
Thanks Spaff. Addled? Me? Shirley you jest. ;)
(SOTM) I can't download a sample at the office, but it sure reads very interestingly. The sequel? "I'm Just a Writer in the Amiright Land"? ;)
Thanks, Agr. I did do one so far to the other song...http://www.amiright.com/parody/70s/moodyblues4.shtml
(SOTM) Aww, your addled musings are always welcome, Adagio!
(SOTM). Have commented, will now travell.
Thanks Jake and K1!
(clever comment implied). Fun read.
Thanks, Claude. Hmm...maybe I should have used a different title. No, I like this one. :D
(SOTM) - Very fine job. Already voted above.
Thanks again Paul.
SOTM: Call me off my rocker, but I like this. :)
How could I call you off your rocker, Melhi? :D Thanks
another sidewyas glance at a lyric .. very good as always Adagio .. always so different!
Clever, well-rhymed word play.
Thanks martha and JJ!
(SOTM) See above!
Good work there Adagio
(SOTM) Like the way you snuck in the line about everyone thinking you are high! ;-D
Thanks Johnny, Peregrin, and Meriadoc. ;) (Merry, you know they do.)
Wow, them there's a hard buncha song. For some reason 'I'm not addled, I'm must shy' was very funny to me.
Thanks 2nz! Maybe it just goes with my name...Addled Adagio....lol.
should i vote, for this poet, after thought, yeah its five five five :)
Thanks a lot, Özgür!!! ;)
(abc05) When you submitted during SOTM, i coudln't hear the sample, but now I have. I am impressed that you wrote it against such a difficultly-timed song.
(ABC05) Followed the sample well, but what does it mean? Just kidding, excellent work and I've never thought you were high.
ABC... DKTOS, so i can't vote... funny though!
Thanks, Agrimorfee for such a nice compliment! : )
Thanks Red Ant ! and thanks for the read, Dominic! (there is a sample of the OS at the top)
Thanks Red Ant ! and thanks for the read, Dominic! (there is a sample of the OS at the top)
(ABC) Still diggin' this rockin' parody!
(N) "feelings you just imply" nicely sums it up for you adagio - good OS for it too
(ABC) Still a poetic feast, dear adagio. And those new visuals down the side compliment your work nicely!
(ABC05) Excellent parody...555
(ABC05) Not bad!
Thanks Johnny, Stu, Luke (I love their CD covers), Rick C. and Gofunko!!
(ABC) this parody perfectly encapsulates your muse, Adagio...should be your theme tune! 555
Thank you dear Kristof.
