| Original Song Title: | "She'll Be Comin' Round The Mountain" |
| Original Performer: | Traditional |
| Parody Song Title: | "Can't Do Plumbin', Sink's A Fountain" |
| Parody Written by: | Kristof Robertson |
A little singalong about my frankly non-existant DIY skills
Can't do plumbin', sink's a fountain, coz I'm dumb
Can't do plumbin', sink's a fountain, coz I'm dumb
Fix the tap, I thought I oughtta
Now the basement's fulla water
Can't do plumbin', sink's a fountain, coz I'm dumb!
I was puttin' up a shelf, took out a wall
I was puttin' up a shelf, took out a wall
Tho' my life's all glitz and glamour
Boy, I'm hopeless with a hammer
I was puttin' up a shelf, took out a wall!
Tried rewire-in' my kitchen, house burned down
Tried rewire-in' my kitchen, house burned down
Tried rewire-in' my kitchen
All the firemen are bitchin'
And they're tryin' hard to run me outta town!
In my mind I am the world's best handyman
So I undertake repairs without a plan
My intentions always noble
But my pad looks like Chernobyl
Or a post-war version of Afghanistan!
Can't do plumbin', sink's a fountain, coz I'm dumb
Can't do plumbin', sink's a fountain, coz I'm dumb
Well I shouldn't be allow-ed
It's been 3 weeks since I've showered
Can't do plumbin', sink's a fountain, coz I'm dumb
Cha cha cha!
Can't do plumbin', sink's a fountain, coz I'm dumb
Fix the tap, I thought I oughtta
Now the basement's fulla water
Can't do plumbin', sink's a fountain, coz I'm dumb!
I was puttin' up a shelf, took out a wall
I was puttin' up a shelf, took out a wall
Tho' my life's all glitz and glamour
Boy, I'm hopeless with a hammer
I was puttin' up a shelf, took out a wall!
Tried rewire-in' my kitchen, house burned down
Tried rewire-in' my kitchen, house burned down
Tried rewire-in' my kitchen
All the firemen are bitchin'
And they're tryin' hard to run me outta town!
In my mind I am the world's best handyman
So I undertake repairs without a plan
My intentions always noble
But my pad looks like Chernobyl
Or a post-war version of Afghanistan!
Can't do plumbin', sink's a fountain, coz I'm dumb
Can't do plumbin', sink's a fountain, coz I'm dumb
Well I shouldn't be allow-ed
It's been 3 weeks since I've showered
Can't do plumbin', sink's a fountain, coz I'm dumb
Cha cha cha!

LOL Kristoff! Love it!
Priceless, my dearest little S.A.B!!
Tho' my life's all glitz and glamour
Boy, I'm hopeless with a hammer
I hope that's ALL you're helpless with...;)
Hee...I LOVE this! 5s...

Hee...I LOVE this! 5s...
Hilarious. And hits home, so to speak.
Laughed till I puked. Still, you could do repairs at my house. Super high 5's
Thanks a million Ash, Arwen,John and Dee...I'm not really that hopeless, and I make up for it in other ways..(smirk)
That's really good :) The rhymes are wonderful especially.
Puked till I laughed - just kidding! Brilliantly hilarious, Kristof! Magnificently fun!
Almost as radiant as Chernobyl, but much funnier to visit.
Hahaha! 5's!
love it good job! same line as arwen's for my favorite! 555
funniest one i read today...great job
There's nothing better than tearing down a house, when that's what you set out to do in the first place. Very nice Kristof (the Tool Man) Robertson.
Brilliant! One word to sum it all up!
That was halarious, dude! 5-5-5
Excellent! Song of the day!
Well, Kristof, I finally got around to coming 'round to this parody and I like it. 5's...BTW, here in Am-merr-iker we don't say some one is "dumb" when they can't do something. I believe the correct phrase might be "A home-repair/home-improvement challenged Individual" - that way you can maintain your self-esteem even when you do stuff that is dumb...
Good one! The OS was one of my favorite sing-alongs as a child.
Great stuff !
Boy howdy!! Thanks Indigo, JD, K1chyd, Joelle, Dawg, Al, 2nz, Bob, Kitty, Billy, Paul, Merry and finally Adam (whew!)...I really enjoy doing the silly little ones like this!
Very funny! 5's are your salary's pay for doing a non klutzy job of this spoof.
Yee-Haw!! That was so funny, Kristof! 5's
This really brought the house down! Gloriously done!
ROFL! Though I must admit I find it hard to understand how it is that some people make such horrendous DIY cock-ups: I mean, it ain't exactly rocket science.
Funny. Just flat-out, straight-up funny stuff. Loved it, and the words were so perfectly placed do I didn't stumble. What else? 5! 5! 5!
seriously good ... fabulous Kristoff .. lots of good rhymes .. special mention goes to noble/chernobyl.....
Thought Id just sung my favourite of yours but this one replaces it - superb!
Hahahaha bloody great stuff mate!!! A HUGE improvement over the original "She'll Coming Around The Mountain", the original sucked plumbers crack!!! I never liked nursery rhymes. Anyways all 5s from me!!!
Hilarious. I think the "cha cha cha" was my favorite part; I'm still laughing.

What Claude said. This is laugh-out-loud funny. Don't get me started with the highlights or my whole screen will end up fluorescent yellow.
(Wild Card)ROTFL This was silly and brilliant.
can't believe I hadn't seen this - "my God but it's lovely!" (just watched "Girl in My Soup" again last night) - that is damned perfect pacing and the Chernobyl Afghanistan bit was brilliant - way to go KR - 555
Great song K!
(wild card) see above
hilarious stuff ...! gets my vote! ( wc)
Ummm....blimey!! Thank you all so much for your comments and votes!!...*sniff*....*sob*.....*Gwyneth*....:-). It's good to see there are so many DIY dyslexics out there who can relate to this. Cheers!!
(SOTM WC)
Well, it's pretty obvious that you're going to win this one, and even though I wish it were me, it's pretty apparent why it isn't, what with songs like this one to contend against. Nice Work!

Excellent parody. The Chernobyl/Afghanistan line was the best, but it was all good.
Still great fun, Kristof (the Tool Man) Robertson.
What Spaff said. Still great.
What John Jenkins said. Still great.
