| Parody Song Title: | "Scavengers Due" |
| Parody Written by: | Alvin Rhodes |
scavengers due...fill their bellies
scavengers seen
if something stinks...really smelly
they think that's keen
how do they know...when there's killing
scent tells them so
when life departs...its so thrilling
that's when they go
they clue their friends...all are milling
they get to work
and in they plow...willy nilly
they go berserk
all through the day...bellies filling
straight on to morn
when something dies...it gets nibbled
while its still warm
scavengers chew...blood is spilling
scavengers seize
they bare their teeth...really cruelly
with meat between
that's how it goes...isn't pretty
these guys are pros
when they take part...its a frenzy
one would suppose

Got to give you your `due'.... that was a dilly (dilly, dilly)!
I haven't heard this song in like forever! You nailed it well (really, really)!
This reminds me of those nature shows where two animals pull bloody meat apart between them. Eww. The parody is really good and not too gruesome.. : ) 5's
thanks TJC serafina and adagio

The combination of sweet OS and graphic subject matter worked wonderfully well, Al. I got a buzz(ard) out of this one. 555
thanks PMS and kristof
Couldn't place the OS....until I saw TJC's remark with "dilly, dilly"...that rang the bell a little...good job - 5's ~ ~ ~
You mean someone actually SANG this OS (besides my mother?). Anyway, delightfully sick parody.... :-)
