The Lyrics

This is for Peter Andersson's ONE WEEK NOTICE challenge (Week 14) hosted for the first time by Claude Prez! Sometimes you can't let life bring you down or stop your swagger and my Mr. Success lives by these rules!
Slammed the door on my hand
Got kicked out of the band
But the singer's a pest
Thus I'm Mr. Success!

Waiter dumped my whole meal
Chili made my skin peal
But my pun was the best!
Hence I'm Mr. Success

Once I parked in the handicapped spot
But the fine wasn't a lot
Was only slapped once on a date
At Denny's she said "You're cheap!"
Called me a creep
Only cost fifteen dollars and those eggs were great!

Went to ski...
Almost went past every tree
Plus my nurse had huge breasts!
Call me Mr. Success

(Insturmental Break)

Doooooooooown.... in Vegas I cheated at cards
Mob didn't beat me 'that' hard
They only broke one of my legs
Fell down the stairs in a heap
Not a soul heard me weep!
Since good luck is my power there's no need to beg

Stung by bees...
Just attacked my bad knee
Sat my butt on their nest...
Thank God that I am so blessed

That raccoon's sick with rabies and chomped my behind
When I'm messing with nature I told him "Nice try!"
Far from... deceased... Mr. Success!!!

Should have titled it "The Eternal Optimist"! Keep up that spirit!

I like the juxtaposition here, and loved the second verse. Very well played :) Date at Denny's...no good?

That second verse was a shout out to you and your "Feel It Still" OWN tune also the part about the rabid raccoon was a shout to my "Feel It Still" OWN tune! Thanks guys!

The "almost went past every tree" joke was kinda brilliant! I'm soo gonna use that way of phrasing myself at some future point! See - this community, feedback and inspire each other thing is working!

Love the way you turned it on its head -- very clever and funny! That line Peter pointed out was my fave as well; with the "Mob didn't beat me 'that' hard" line a close second. Awesome job!

This had the most jump out and tickle you lines of the week. Great job on this. I love the parodies where you take the idea of the original song and turn them 180. Very successfully done!
