Song Parodies -> Unavailable
| Original Song Title: | "Unforgettable" |
| Original Performer: | Nat King Cole |
| Parody Song Title: | "Unavailable" |
| Parody Written by: | Steve Kalafut |
"Unavailable" is the latest term used by telemarketers to avoid having their names identified by caller ID units. Sometimes, their number appears; sometimes, it doesn't. This parody is based on Nat's orginal version, but if you want to sing a father'/daugher duet like Natalie did, that's OK, too.
Unavailable, that's what I see
On the face of my caller ID
It won't tell me the identity
Of the call that has been sent to me
I wonder how someone can be called
Unavailable, is that your name?
Telemarketers, is that your game?
That's why, mister, I won't answer you
My subscription you can cancel, too
I'll no longer take my chances with you
[instrumental]
Unavailable that's what you claim
Telemarketers, you're all the same
If you really want to speak to me
Please tell me the person reaching me
Otherwise, there's no more leeching for you

enjoyed it
Good message...good write
Any number that comes up 'unavailable' on my called ID doesn't get answered.
Liked this one.
Excellent pacing and idea. 555
love it...i hate those guys more than the "ones guy"
I like it when you ask them, "Are you a telemarketer?" and they respond, "No, I'm just trying to share an opportunity with you." Anyway, very well expressed, Steve.
Right on, Steve. (BTW, is anyone having any luck witht the FCC's "Do Not Call" list? Been on it more than a year and still get a few.) Great OS and very topical switch. Five dinner-interrupting rings.
