Don't know the OS? Are You Lonesome Tonight? MIDI here ~ Thinkin' bout changin' my handle to Samuel L. Presley after this one...
[ sung ]
Have you flown some in fright?
Were there snakes on your flight?
Are you sorry you got on that plane?
Did your poor heartstrings flail?
Go all Irwin-esque pale?
When en-ven-omed while sipping champagne?
Did attendants treat "coachies" with dripping disdain?
Do these sung in-ter-rog-a-tives strike you as lame?
Was it wry déjà vu? In-flight flick—'Snake Pit 2'!
Tell me dear, have you flown some in fright?
[ spoken ]
I wondered if you'd flown some in fright
You know, someone once said all the curled's encaged
Guess that's a metaphor for pheromone-crazed snakes on YOUR plane
Pam Anderson and Kid Rock, eh?
Fate had you side winding to that fateful terminal in your Dodge 'Viper'
Act one was when your too, too weighty Gucci snakeskin bags pegged the 'scales'
You left behind your first edition Ulysses—'serpentine' plot—heavy man, heavy—
You didn't get rattled, made weight and slithered your lithesomness on board
Then came act two—400 writhing vipers poured from the vents
and oozed up through the toilets
All while you blithely sucked down a 'stinger'
And you, being a herpetologist and all—Is THAT why I have herpes?
Honey, you almost died when some snake
probed your 'innermost' thighs
And then a real reptile got his fangs in you
And I had forgotten to take out flight insurance
But, luckily,
Phil Spectre, Christopher Walkin, OJ, and Mike Boogie* were aboard
And they knew how to deal with their own kind
Now the cage is bare, and you've got a prayer
With verklemptiness coiled all around
And at last you've come back to me
Then, after the curtain fell,
Mr. Jackson easily made his net-net on front-end points
[ Sung ]
Did those fangs cheeks inflame—make your asp huge again?
Smell pee here—guess you've flown some in fright!

A brilliant bit o' work, from the title to the footnote!
Like to see your longer songs...lots of literate laughs, and sophisticated humor, here...Brilliant job
Another snakey plane song. What is it that you guys like so much about snakes and planes. I thought guys liked women.
Red necks on a plane?
new laws say that snakes must leave their fangs at the airport... great piece of work here...5s
As much as I love your edelweis stuff, I have to echo AFW.
I echo PMS and AFW - but it's only because your longer ones are so brilliant that your Edelwiess ones (though always witty concise and clever) don't compare - this one is packed with treats - 555
Gotta agree with AFW...you're at your best when you've got some space to flex your parody muscles. Top stuff. 555
John - Thanks... I'm sure you could have suggested several dozen historical snakes off the top of your head... as for the living... I shouldd'a included Geraldo Rivera!
AFW- Thanks...I think a lot of it is I don't have your or JAB's rapidity o' productivity and Edelwrites don't take all Edelnight!
Ann Hammond- I'm not sure it's planes and snakes for all guys... for Tom Cruise, it's couch-hoppin' and personal sonography machines!
2Eagle- great idea... if you write it, maybe include this vignette: A passenger comes up to the redneck flight attendant and says you gotta leak in your sink, and the redneck sez... "go ahead"
Alvin, PMS, Stuart and Kristof- thanks for all the comments... I think I have to ditto my remarks to AFW...I am amazed at how many of you crank out 2,3,4 and occasionally 5 longish premium parodies per day, albeit in in or'G'smic spasms!

Looks like AFW is the one to agree with here, and who am I to argue? Great stuff. Nice catch on herpetologist/herpes, and "Do these sung in-ter-rog-a-tives strike you as lame?" is perfect.
"SOAP" hasn't yet picked up enough parodies to become an "Amiright Perfect Storm" -- Dick Cheney's hunting accident (uh-huh, sure, it was) remains the most recent -- but as long as the tunes that do get posted are this good, I'll sail right into them. (Or should that be "fly into them"?) Alvin: Actually, snakes are allowed to bring their fangs onboard, but they have to check their venom, what with the new liquid restrictions.
Spaff and Michael- thanks for taking the time to comment! And, I guess you're right, this one ain't all that timely now... now you've gone and burst my [SOAP] bubble!
'Specially liked the Dodge Viper reference...
FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
