The Lyrics

Whew, took a while to find a good song, but then it all came together. You da man Walken.
It ain't no joke, this guy's more famous than the Pope
Cause he's dominated the movie industry
He's not your average guy, no blunder one-hit wonder,
You'd think he'd make a couple films but had to do 93.
So cut the guy some slack, and forget Kangaroo Jack,
Deer Hunter was a gem, looked better than a Big Mac.
How bout Pulp Fiction, The Addiction, and Catch Me If You Can,
If he keeps on going he'll be making movies forever man.

Come on there Will Ferrell, give Walken some more cowbell,
That's right 6 times this damn guy, hosted Saturday Night Live,
Hopefully there will be more, some others are good,
But your cerebrum knows that this here guy named Walken brings the fun.

Fifty-nine years ago, he broke out and he woke up,
To aggression and depression inside New York City,
Took 10 years to make his first TV appearance,
Just playin' and nappin' as the young Kevin Acton.
He'd attract a crowd, one that was loud,
Without a doubt just loved this guy's work, and
Saw that he had no frowns.
Soon enough came Last Embrace, then Heaven's Gate,
It was hardly just starting a career so damn great.

Come on there Will Ferrell, give Walken some more cowbell,
That's right 6 times this damn guy, hosted Saturday Night Live,
Hopefully there will be more, some others are good,
But your cerebrum knows that this here guy named Walken brings the fun.

This is for real, Walken's led a life of zest and zeal,
With his fame, it seems like he just makes it one big game.
But he'll still do more, a world tour, maybe president '04
Why stop there when you can reach for all the damn stars and soar?
So don't retire Chris, Sire, you're still much stronger than fire.
I'll bet in thirty years your niche still will not expire
Poolhall Junkies looks like it's the bomb, what can I say?
I'm just so frickin interested in all the flicks you make.

Come on there Will Ferrell, give Walken some more cowbell,
That's right 6 times this damn guy, hosted Saturday Night Live,
Hopefully there will be more, some others are good,
But your cerebrum knows that this here guy named Walken brings the fun.

That this here guy named Walken brings the fun...
That this here guy named Walken brings the fun...
That this here guy named Walken brings the fun...
That this here guy named Walken brings the fun...
That this here guy named Walken brings the fun...

I very nearly did this song as well! Decent job.

I don't know the original, but you can read the rhythm and the rhymes- it's a good bit of work.

Good parody. You caught the odd rhythm in the chorus very well. That's one thing I love about the original - though it made it hard to catch the lyrics for a while - lol! Nice job!
