| Original Performer: | REO Speedwagon |
| Parody Song Title: | "Can't Stand These Lyrics" |
| Parody Written by: | Rick Duncan |
It depressed me sometimes when I hear certain songs and realise they are actually making money.....
I can't stand these lyrics of this hit song
And yet I can't turn off my radio
What moron wrote these dumb words, of this crap song?
I only wish I'd never heard of REO
I tell myself it can't go on forever
Because it's causing damage to my ear
These words hit like a hammer, not a feather
It causes inflammation
And it makes my eyeballs tear
And even as I wonder
Just who approved this tripe
Should have tossed it down the toilet
After using it to wipe
For the rhymes are grosser
Than a bowl of fruit that's ripe
And I can't stand these lyrics anymore
All they do is find some words to rhyme with "Or"
It could have been written by any whore
It really is a bore, whatever
Cause I can't stand these lyrics anymore
One verse wasn't enough, they had to write more
Soon I'm gonna hit my head on the floor
Be unconscious and snore
Buddy, I can't stand these lyrics anymore
My head has been in a tizzy since I heard this
I've been trying to get it out of my mind
And it always seems that they play it way too much
And it brings my morning driving and my poor teeth to a grind
And even as I reach fast to turn the damn thing off
I can't handle even seconds, turn my head and loudly cough
Please no more Speedwagon, I think enough is enough!
And I can't stand these lyrics anymore
All they do is find some words to rhyme with "Or"
It could have been written by any whore
It really is a bore, whatever

Soon I'm gonna hit my head on the floor
Be unconscious and snore

And what is wrong with lyrics written by a whore, I have to ask??? ; ) Nice work, Rick...
I was referring to songwriting sluts.... and it rhymed with shore and oar, so it must be good.
Good one Rick! Especially all the 'or' rhymes...
I think I started one called this (well, I know I started to write one called this, 'cause I found the file) aeons ago, but decided to write the "I can't find the freezer any more" sequel to "Fridge odour troubled Walter" parody instead. Also, this is a load better than what I've got sketched, so I don't think it'll be seeing light of day :-)
Some great ones today. This was excellent, and I'd like to point out that a parody that rags on other people's lyrics can only be successfully be pulled off by a great lyricist. Well done, Rick!
I'd just like to plug my new song on Soundclick (See top of page) Which is a song written from a parody. I guess this means that like Merry and Pippin, I can go both ways.
this si one of them recursive post-modern existential parodies - that I LOVE (if done well - and this is) - "All they do is find some words to rhyme with "Or" (which is what you are simultaneously doing and not doing) - very clever - 555
Well, somebody had to say it and you said it very well!
Muwahahaha - Exxxxxxcellent!
