Song Parodies ->Authors -> Charlie Decker
As you might have percieved, my name is Charlie Decker. I am a high school student, and I live in New York City. I have been writing parodys on and off for years, and I am very grateful to this site for providing me with an outlet to share them. I aspire to become the greatest political parody writer who ever lived. Clearly, I have a ways to go.
As far as my parodies themselves go, the most important thing to me is perfect pacing and rhyming. I am a real stickler for pacing, and any song that I write where the average pacing rating is below 4.50 is considered a failure.
Finally, regardless of your own political views, I only ask that you rate my songs fairly. I understand that you might have divergent political opinions, but that doesn't effect how tight the pacing of my song is.
Send me an email at cdecker@nyc.rr.com if for some reason you feel the need to contact me. Hope to hear from you!
