The Lyrics

Deep into
Bing cherry munchin'
Often do
I tweak my luncheon,
With such bits..
Spittin' out the pits

Plump red gems,
Hooked on the habit
Pluck their stems,
Purse lips and nab it,
From my mitts,
Spittin' out the pits

Sometimes I'll toss one in air, a looper
Showin' off my skill, when near a group 'er,
(Oops, a blooper)

Tarty fun
And just can't wait, so
Rush next one,
Like Lay's potato..
Multi hits..
Spittin' out the pits..

Buy I can't, not "Well to do"
Cost a mint, a pound or two
Shop in Kmart, stop and stare,
Sweet and piled up, shiny there
Reach out and test a sample
Ten, or fifteen seems ample
Never spend a dime,
For this cherry-fill time..

In one year,
I've snitched a thousand,
Weekly cheer,
Just slyly browse
And ogle tits..
Spittin' out the pits

Forced to quell
Fruity self-giftin'
Store dicks tell
Cops I'm shopliftin'
Bench charge, writs...
Spittin' out the pits

Next day I'm brought up before..a Just-ice,
Peeks above his nose specks, soundly cussed us, (Bust us)

No O.J.,
I draw the slammer
Here to stay..
A ten day whammer
No acquits..
Sittin' here's the pits..

No more it's
Spittin' out the pits..

Since placed in
Post office wall bunch
Curb my sin,
Buy grapes, a small bunch..
Legal "Gits"
Seedless..with no pits

Legal "Gits"
Seedless..with no pits

Really interesting and unexpected directions taken, AF... you writer of hitz, you!

AFW - Nicely done. After all - life is just a bowl of cherries. Interesting and dark (cherry?) twist as well. This at least this is not "the pits". ;D

Nice word arrangement. Just be careful not to bite into any cherry bombs.
Christie Marie M - September 03, 2010 - Report this comment
Very catchy, AFW! I find this cherry of a ditty rather "cordial!" A spitting distance of pits comes to a 555!

I prefer the kind of "cherries" that have no pits (at least, in the sense you're using, heh heh!), but you get charged with a lot worse than shoplifting. Thought that's where this might be going when it turned to ogling and criminal, but this was more consistent - and "safer". :-) 555

Was going to plug TT's "Cherries", but you've already v/c'd - and got the double-entendre, as expected, although a few readers didn't. No need to re-read. (hey, that rhymes!)

Not an easy song to do, and it flowed great with a nicely flowing story line. Enjoyed this a lot!
John Jenkins - September 05, 2010 - Report this comment
Clever story and clever rhyming, pariticularly the "justice/cussed us/bust us" verse.

Good. Now eat a watermelon.

Wow! Nice to see another parody of Puttin' On The Ritz! I did one for those who may not remember, called Mr. Fix It awhile back. This is without a doubt a very, very difficult song to parody!! So I'll Pop in a cherry (oops, no pun intended LOL!;-D) and spit out 3 5's - 555 :-)
