The Lyrics

We're posting this on Claude's alter ego even though he isn't in it, because he started it. This group effort is all over the map, and that's what I invited. That's what experiments are for.
Rick D

I'm offering this tune up as the basis for more verse
You can spin off any topic, be it funny, gross or worse
All you smart, compulsive writers will chip in for it's a curse
To wreck this grand old song

Story, story, short and clever
We can write them here forever
Make this one a group endeavor
The spoofs go marching on!

Philbo

If you don't know the original, just look at what Rick wrote
I'm sure you'll get the rhythm - that's right, get it by the throat
You really do not need to work out every single note
Let's wreck this grand old song

Story, story short and clever
Make it gory? Hell, whatever
Just don't say your name is Trevor
The spoofs go marching on

2nz

Mine eyes can see them coming, yes just as I sing this chord
I am sitting on the grass because it's all I could afford
Oh, to watch the deeds of Jason and his Argonautic horde
They both go marching on

Gory, Gory, wow he slew ya
You don't like that feeling, do ya?
Bye, bye see ya, wish I knew ya
Now Jason's in the song

EmiLoca

Norm'ly I'd chicken out, should such a group-thread pass me by
But since last time I got hounded, I think I'll give this a try
Hope I'm not diving into a pool that suddenly runs dry
Here goes my random song!

(Come on, find a rhyme!) Don't rush me!
(Quarry? Dorrie? Toilet flushing?)
That was stupid, now I'm blushing
Embarassed - I'll get gone.

Armstrong

Yes people pissed me off today and so I must complain
Some are taking my emotions and throwing them down a drain
Then some stupid Asian woman cannot FRIKIN CHOOSE A LANE
So hear my angry song

Short on dinner by a nickel
"Paco" didn't nix the pickel
Happiness just tends to trickle
Till days like these are gone


(Missing Leo Jay verse that was full of emoticons)

Philbo

Leo Jay's one of a bunch of great new am I writers
Along with EmiLoca and a few more upstart blighters
But Leo's been inflicted with that rampant smileyitis
(He loves emoticons)

Leo, Leo - for your style is
Overloaded with those smileys
Here, the verdict from your trial is:
Please, less emoticons

Johnny D

Today we heard the news that SpaceShipOne flew very high
And established private enterprise's claim upon the sky
Give three cheers for pilot Melvill, he's a "Right-Stuff" kind of guy
And 62 years young!

Story, Story Musgrave flew, ya!
Then, John Glenn flew with much brou-ha!
Now, Mike Melvill flew up too, ya!
Old astrofarts, rock on!

Joelle

Mine eyes have seen brochures from colleges from day to night
I won a scholarship, but then- surprise- I they did slight
And my parents don't want me to fight 'cause they assume they're right
I should not go to school.

Should I really go to college,
Fill my head with useless knowledge
Is it really called a priv'lege
To go to school again?

Philbo

But if Leo inserts a verse without a smiley in
There still won't be a context for my comment about him
So put in all the smileys (if not smiley, least a grin)
So Rick can post this song

Smiley, smiley makes me happy
As a baby in its nappy
Even if they just look crappy
Just put them in the song

Johnny D

We'll slap this crap together and we'll post it in the cage".
Where the gibbons, apes, orang-utans, and mandrills take the stage
But please don't discuss our monkey-poop or aoid you'll enrage
Let's sing our monkey song:

Eee, eee ah ah eee eee ooo-ah!
Eee, eee ah ah eee eee ooo-ah!
Eee, eee ah ah eee eee ooo-ah!
Your fur's got bugs - yum-yum!

Rick D

Yes, these topics seem quite random, but it was an open test
Thanks for the participation, be you regular or guest
Johnny, please call the exterminator, you might us infest
The chimps go marching on

Stories, stories, long and clever
We did write them here forever
Made this one a group endeavor
The spoofs go marching on!

Rick D, Phil, 2nz, EmiLoca, Armstrong, Johnny D, Joelle,....thanks

Having been to the Mojave Airport I got a laugh about the SpaceShipOne taking off from there...

Boring boring is Mojave
A town that just is not too saavy
Got 10 trailers and a palm tree
Four streetlights and no mall....
