| Original Performer: | Screamin' Jay Hawkins |
| Parody Song Title: | "I’ll Try to Sell This Slew" |
| Parody Written by: | John A. Barry |
I made it. 300 parodies of this Screamin’ Jay Anthem, which I plan to pitch to Guinness. Will let you know if anything happens. Extremely unlikely, but what the Spell, uh, hell.
I’ll try to sell this slew;
It’s long-shot time.
Three hundred I managed to do.
I’ll be tryin’,
Hoping they’re buyin’.
You know, I will contact
That Guinness Book crowd;
Hope I make an impact
And by my mad act they will be wowed.
How many “Spell”s I do?
Two ninety-nine
Plus ein.
It’s a slew
I did do;
Hope that crew
Thinks so too, and goes, “Wow,
Put him in there
So readers can see
His “Spell”in prow-
ess.”
Dreaming.
They’ll see my “Spell”ing slew
Right here, online.
