Parody Song Title:

"A Friend In Wii"

Parody Written by:

Jonathan S.

Inspiration has struck me once again--only this time it stayed long enough for me to finish an entire parody. Here's hoping you're not yet tired of me writing about video games.

No offense intended to Playstation and Xbox players.

And yes, there is a lyric deliberately borrowed from Weird Al's "You're Pitiful."

See the original
I've found, you see, a friend in Wii
Big N, you see's much better
Than Microsoft; at them, I scoff
Xbox looked never deader

I've found for me, a friend in Wii
Playstation's not fantastic
You pay a fortune for no more
Than just a waste of plastic

On bended knee, in rended jeans
I've gotta beat the Rabbids
My family crest's an NES
That's how much I'm an addict

Nintendo Wii, it has gripped me
I never read my letters
Real life's a mess, I must confess,
But I've felt never better

[chorus]
Grades falling
Enthralling
Games calling
Still wanting

High-scoring
World touring
No curing
This moron

My den and me look so dingy
Life socially's no better
Still, I impress, 'cause I'm the best
Of Guitar Hero shredders

My skills are sweet like grenadine,
Or maybe cheap fruit leather
I'm half-undressed, chips on my chest,
My fingers getting stiffer

[chorus]

My loyalty's with this machine
For there can be no other
My sport prowess ain't second-best
'Cept when I'm boxing Mother

A slave to Wii's the fate for me
Yes, I will leave it never
Cause, as you've guessed, I'm too obsessed
We've spent our lives together...

And, BTW, my mum really is better at Wii Sports Boxing than I am.

Love that OS! Really tells the story of Wii well! Great subbing! Fives

A fairly obscure OS, but a good parody of it. I guess some PS3 or XBox weenie 1'd you on the funny, but at least gave you good pacing marks.
