"If You Parody This Song"

Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

If you parody this song, make a change
Not the same line all along, make a change
Here is my stated position:
There should be a prohibition
On repeated repetition, make a change

Because it gets extremely boring, all the same
And it might just induce snoring, all the same
For my most fervent wish'll
Be not to be prejudicial
But variation's beneficial - not the same

For your patience will be tested, with no change
You'll end up uninterested, with no change
It will cause immense frustration
If there's lyrical stagnation
And there is no variation with no change

If you want to make it awsome, make a change
So your talent, it can blossom, make a change
In the final ana-lysis
Then, to obviate this crisis
My precise, concise advice is: make a change
