| Parody Written by: | wannabemustangjockey |
Feng shui is one of those things that just deserves to be made fun of.
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn the bed around
It's feng shui in action
Turn it upside down
Pretend you're in traction
Love my chi, yes
These curtains don't look pretty
They're opaque and we cannot see the city
When you hear the sound of the buses beepin'
Then you'll know that's the reason why I'm weepin', and
Woah yeah
Turn the bed around
Don't you get the feeling?
Turn it upside down
Bolt it to the ceiling
Love my chi, yes
Turn the bed around
Paint the headboard chartreuse
Turn it upside down
Use wood from a caboose
Love my chi, yes
Some people like their retro,
But it just don't go with my set, no
And you see I've made up my mind about it
It's got to be the incense, no doubt about it, woah woah
'cause when the decorator starts playing
Gonna look like Martha Stewart, with the kitsch, kitsch, kitsch
Makes me wanna paint the walls pink yeah, yeah, yeah
And when the painter starts staining the floor
He stains that oak with the orange-tinted varnish
With the splat, splat, splat, splat, splat, splat of the brush, hey
Turn the bed around
Looks too good to measure
Turn it upside down
Blood rush acupressure
Love to turn it
Love to fern it
Love to furnish
Love to my chi, yes
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn the bed around
I can't wait to start, yeah
Turn it upside down
Class up my apartment
Love my chi, yes
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it upside down
Turn the bed around
It's feng shui in action
Turn it upside down
Pretend you're in traction
Love my chi, yes
These curtains don't look pretty
They're opaque and we cannot see the city
When you hear the sound of the buses beepin'
Then you'll know that's the reason why I'm weepin', and
Woah yeah
Turn the bed around
Don't you get the feeling?
Turn it upside down
Bolt it to the ceiling
Love my chi, yes

LOL! 5s
Love the concept. 555
A fine, balanced job! 555
Wonderfully, wackily written parody. 555
(SOTM06) That's a new twist on Feng Shui. : )
[SOTM] No complaints here, it was funny, and it looks like it took you a while to write. d;^){-<
[SOTM] I don't get it, but it's very funny.
(SOTM) I faced my sofa east after reading this one....
(SOTM) You mean people don't normally bolt furniture to their celing? Damn, I guess I'm going to have to take that couch out now...
(SOTM) Still wacky and well-written.
Some great rhymes and subs, Jay. I particularly like "bolt it to the ceiling" and the Martha Stewart line, but it's solid all the way through. And I totally agree with your introductory comment.
SOTM - A 1,09 long sample is a bit odd IMHO, but since it's the best I've found so far: www.emotionband.net/listen.html
SOTM - I think this one is well decorated or is that detaroced?? Great concept for a parody.
(SOTM) I agree with Spaff. Retro/set no also stuck out for me. Good use of TOS.
(SOTM) - gotta give you 5s just for the idea of Turn The Bed Around, and the jump from that line to writing a feng shui parody - which I kind of believe in but still think is ripe for lampooning - good pacing too, mustang - 555
(SOTM) This is awesome, great idea 555!
(SOTM) I'm totally with ya, jockey. Feng Shui not only deserves to be mocked...it MUST be mocked! 555
(SOTM) Here are some 5s to reflect upon in your Ba-Gua mirror.
:-)

Funny stuff. And your artwork isn't bad either.
(SOTM) Interesting ideas, very funny
SOTM: Great idea for a song, the title had me laughing. Well done!
(SOTM) DKTOs but lyrics were relaly good, 555
(SOTM) Very creative! I enjoyed it.
