Song Parodies -> China's War
| Original Song Title: | "Rhinosaur" |
| Original Performer: | Soundgarden |
| Parody Song Title: | "China's War" |
| Parody Written by: | MrMacphisto |
This covers the economic dependency between America and China and vaguely references the lead scares and other problems with Chinese products.
Branding with hegemony
Some of us scorn
Replaced our legacy
Feeling alarmed
Then it happened in a spurt
With the deadliest of forms
Even wealthy feel the hurt
Buying cheaply lost its charm
Betrayed, but we're to blame
Feeding the horde
They wait, and play the game
Machining their arms
The pull is now complete
They've tethered our hands
No raise goes to their slaves
While we get obese
We depend on what they make
While they're bleeding 'till they're old
Jobs they're stealing for our sake
Wish we'd make it all at home...
They depend on what we take
Only reason so much sold
Not appealing when it breaks
Time to make it on our own...

"Wish we'd make it all at home..." would be an overreaction, but this is a well done parody, with a lot of good substitutions - starting with a very good opening line.

Hard-nosed parodying here, Mac. Insightful and classy. 555
Thanks, John, Rick, & Alvin. :) John, it is true that we couldn't feasibly make all of our own products, but it is a nice idea, eh?...
Thanks also to you, Kristof... I guess your comment got in there in between the time I viewed and then posted... :)
Good points, good job
Thanks, AFW.. :)
DKTOS, but this is topically fives-worthy.
