Pet My Cat
Parody of "Wear My Hat" by Phil Collins
She came runnin’ toward me with her eyes open wide,
like some maniac friend of mine.

She said 'Hey you, hey don’tcha remember me?'
I said ‘Sorry, I can’t say that I do’
That’s when her eyes grew redder
and then her hair stood on end,
then she said 'You've got the cat that I need, you've got the cat that I want'

So I said 'OK,

you pet my cat,
you can feel her coat,
you can stroke her back
'cause she likes that.
You can give her shoes,
you can give her socks,
come on pet my cat, she’s yours

If you love her,
you can have her if you love her,
ain't no problem if you love her,
come on take her if you love her.

So her mom came up to me
with a craft book in her hand,
expressing some interest in the fur of my cat,
She said ‘Hi there, have we met before? '
I said 'No,' she said 'Can I shave your cat?'

So I looked her and I stared
and my cat in my arms I clutched
she said 'Listen hun you don't know me,
no you don't know me but you owe me,

and I love your,
I love your cat,
Please sir, hand her over ‘cause I love her,
Her fur’s perfect for me and I love her'

So I suggested

you can pet my cat,
you can feel her coat,
you can stroke her back
but you can’t shave her.
You can give her shoes,
you can give her socks,
come on pet my cat, she’s yours

If you love her,
you can have her if you love her,
ain't no problem if you love her,
come on take her if you love her.

Well later on that day this man came to me
with some kitty litter in his hand
he said 'Hey buddy does your cat’s litter box smell?'
I said 'Why, ya gonna clean it?' He said 'No'
I said 'Listen pal do I know you? Have we ever met?
Why, sir, are you holding kitty litter in your hand?

He said 'I love it,
I don't know why but I love it,
like my best friend I love it,
carry it everywhere 'cos I love it'

I said 'Hey that’s real disgusting

you can’t pet my cat,
you can’t feel her coat,
you can’t stroke her back
’cause that would be gross
You can’t give her shoes,
you can’t give her socks,
now I’ll need to scrub the floors

If you love it,
you can have it if you love it,
ain't no problem if you love it,
please go away if you love it.

You can’t pet my cat,
You can’t pet my cat,
You can’t pet my cat,
Please don’t pet my cat.

Writer’s Block
Parody of "Paranoid" by BLACK SABBATH
Finished with my last song ‘cause I couldn’t find the words to rhyme
People think I’m insane because I am writing all the time
All day long I think of songs but nothing that would make you laugh
Think I’ll lose my mind if I don’t find something that’s not too daft

Can you help me write a parody?
Oh yeah

I need someone to show me a word that I can rhyme with orange
…Um, uh… *ahem*

Make a joke and I will try to put it in another song
Once I wrote a parody of “War Pigs” but it’s far too long

And so as you hear this song I hope that you will laugh a bit
If it’s not too much to ask I beg of you to vote for it

How I Got My Fake I.D.
Parody of "How To Save a Life" by The Fray
17, I can't do anything
Can't drink, can't go out clubbing
Can't go to see the girls get naked
That's when I met my buddy Ed
He told me all about his plan
To get past that big mean man
Always  at the door with his flashlight
Carding evryone to see their age is right


I grabbed my fake moustache and went to Ed's
Gave him 300 bucks, he took some pics
And I got my card in about two weeks
And that's how I got my fake I.D.

I'm now a 24 year old exchange student
My name's Einar, I'm from Iceland
Try to slip past the bouncer in front
Ed got through but I got caught
he yelled at me what was wrong
there was a mistake on my card all along
It said my eyes were blue
My eyes are brown, not blue

I grabbed my fake moustache and went to Ed's
Gave him 300 bucks, he took some pics
And I got my card in about two weeks
And that's how I got my fake I.D

Parody of "Do I Creep You Out" by "Weird Al" Yankovic

I know sometimes... I don't make too much sense..
But I know that... If I try hard enough.
I will be able... to sing a nice song to you.

I like to sing... really ba-adly
I know that I, may not go very far.
But that does not mean...
That I can't try, to sing if I wanted.

I want to win Idol.
More than it can possibly meet the eye...
And would you vote for me?

If you vote for me now, I will probably start to sing...
Another lousy song.

Please don't let that scare you away.
I promise I'll, do better.
Maybe someday!
Oh-oh!

Something I should ask about..
Do you have an idea for a parody?
And can I use it. Can I use it next time?

The votes are coming in.
So if you haven't voted by now.
Please vote for me!

If you don't, that's okay.
I'll be back for another day...
but please vote for me....
Please vote for meeeeee!
Woah!

Parody of "Trapped in the Drive-Thru" by "Weird Al" Yankovic

He say’s “well, well well
Put the money in the bag
And add some French fries too”
He’s lookin really mad
Before I take my gun
And let a bullet loose
I walk up to him and say
“you’re mad, whats your excuse”
and he said “buddy,
I’m so hungry
And a nice burger
Would fill my tummy”
And I say “whats up with that
Do you really wanna get fat”
I says “you don’t know who you’re dealin wit
Man I’m Weird Al Yankovic!”

“Now it’s obvious you have just a small bit of pent up rage
A little mad
And plus waving that gun a bit.”

Then he’s shiftin and lookin around, trying to get himself away
Then I looked in his eyes and I said “listen buddy, hey”
Pull out my fries n’ say “I can share”
Shook his head and he said “no”
He’s checking around every door
Heard the sirens and said oh no.

He screams “what the heck, are you thinking?
Waiting for them to rat me out
Man you really must be crazy
I could have cracked a bullet right up in your curly headed snout

Cops bust in and said “now that’s enough”
They’re flooding in every door
He looked at me and said
“I just can’t take anymore”

He said “you know buddy you know me
And this may come as quite a shock
You’ve known me for a couple years
And just put me on mental block”

I said “man what do you mean”
He said “I think that you know
Think back to that plumbing job
The one that happened just a year ago

I say “paul”
He says “shut up
Don’t you say a word
Being caught robbing this joint
By a friend feels so absurd

I said “Pauly don’t you try to turn it all on me
Cuz the fact still remains you tried to get your food for free
You came right in here shoutin
Curlin your face in a frown
But that’s not what brought me down twas the fact you were waving that gun around”

He moves in a little closer to me
He’s so scared that he can’t see
“he said first just let me explain
I said “no need to, just accept the blame

And then he says “uh, uh
I says “Uh what?”
He says “you see that booth right there,
well place your butt”

he calls out I just don’t wanna tell you cuz of what ya been through
and then says “now Al, I’m going to tell ya that I was actually robbin this store for you
I look confused, look in his eyes and I start to question if he is jokin
Then off in the corner, I hear a sound that familiar,
Well it’s The sound of some guy choking
Then I jump to my feet
Run to his side and start clutchin his chest
I push against his chest
Harder against his chest
He spits up half of a French fry
And then hands me a buck
He says thanks a lot for saving me
And I thought “wow that reward sucked

Paul’s talkin to the policeman
Tells him lots of strange stuff
Next thing that I realize
My wrists are in handcuffs...

Parody of "My Favorite Things" by Richard Rodgers/Oscar Hammerstein

A new post's been made on my favorite forum.
Some guy in Nigeria will share his great fortune.
Another hot cam girl seeks friends on MySpace
These are a few of my emails today.

Herbal BAN ME I'M A BOT has magical power.
My junk mail folder gets bigger each hour.
A note from my girlfriend says we need to talk.
These are a few from my email box.

Click here to get a free Nintendo Wii,
See a scandalous picture of Paris and Brittney,
My bank needs my password for the hundredth time.
These are the emails that I read online.

When I'm at home,
On my laptop,
When I'm feeling bored,
I simply read all of the emails I've got.
And then sit and wait...for more.

Girl I cannot have it
Something about the way you cook (hey!)
Saliva is dripping all over you (hey!)
The way you let the spatula take over you (hey!)
Baby don’t stop keep it going make it good (hey)
The way you put your hand in motion
Oh I love the way you cookin’ it
You got me comin' out of closet
Cause you are cookin' like the chef in my dreams
I step up in the kitchen first thing I see is you cookin’ it
Your eyes and body language tells me you want me to cook it
Well I say girl
Cook that thing for me
Spicy (ohhhh)
A little spicy (cook it)
Come on and blend it now (cook it)
Come on and serve it now (cook it)
Girl it's getting ready now (cook it)
It's time to put this sausage on fire now

Eat it up
Girl make it good like the fryin' pan is on fire
Eat it up
Girl the way it smells, it's only my one desire
Eat it up
Girl I don’t care if the whole kitchen burn down
Eat it up eat it up eat it up

I'm sorry to say that Barney Slayer, kristineslipson, Lemonhead & LN3K/LN3000/LameName3000 did not make it through. :(

As for the final 12, the challenge will start tomorrow and won't end until early-mid Janurary (I'm going on vacation for Christmas, and I reckon others will too). That gives you a couple of weeks to write a parody! Wow! This'll mean that I expect reeeeeeaaalllly good songs when I come back.

Until then, keep watching the skiis...

(*Advertising Space by Robbie Williams*)There's no healthy way of knowing
What was in your head
When you started watching
The whole world looked
A viewer storm was coming for you

Waiting for mom to stop this
And up to your face in darkness
Everyone knowed that you was corrupted
Please, say somethin'

There's no dignity in podcast
To sell the world your broadcast
They're still watching over
Everything that you sended over

I saw you looking at the tube
All night long and all day too
You had that webcam aimed at your face
Broadcasting Yourself

And
No one learned from your videos
You let our space go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is Broadcasting yourself

Through your eyes
The world was turning
Please be quiet
I'm still recording
You couldn't stop saying
As you kept loading up

They tricked you with suscribers
Whatever the content
Everybody loves your comments
But you said..

Special accounts for directors
Through videologs and filming a yarn
No one really gave a darn
Did you think the suscribers did

I saw you looking at the tube
All night long and all day too
You had that webcam aimed at your face
Broadcasting Yourself

And
No one learned from your videos
You let our space go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is Broadcasting yourself oooohh

QUOTE (Billz by Insert Coin(s) to Continue)
(*Grillz by Nelly*)Rob a liquor store just to pay off my bills,

Uh, uh,
Got a full file cabinet of bills new and old,
Yo!
I'm going to have to write a check for this one,
You know that I be so - so dead,

I've got 30 from electric, 30 from credit cards,
28 for the gas, and 50 from K-Mart,
I run my electricity to power my lights and Xbox,
And now they're calling my house, they're wanting a lot,
I'll get around to paying them before I get old,
But they're calling their lawyers, or so I am told,
I let my house mortgage run high (oh!),
All that I buy (oh!),
All that I try (oh!),
On my Visa,
Now my water's turned off,
My interests are up to the top,
The companies hate it,
But my pocketbook loves it,
'Cuz when I (open up the house, it be freezin'),
(Pay the bills, you have no reason),
I collect bills like Pokémon, you know what that means,
It means I'll be living off of crackers and jelly beans,
I wouldn't leave them forever, only a crazy man would,
But I can't pay them all now, I would if I could,
They say,

(Turn off the lights),
Where's my power at?
(You've gotta pay your bills),
Want me to pay my what?
(Your, your bills,
Your power bills),
Every single month I get stuck with more'a these bills,
They say,
(Turn water off),
Where's my liquid at?
(You've gotta pay your bills),
Want me to pay my what?
(Your, your bills,
Your water bills),
I am scammin', not doin' what I'm told,

Can't shower, baby, my time's expired,
I've had no money ever since I was fired,
Now I'm stealin' cable from my neighbor's house, like that,
And I'm stealin' "lectricity from the orphanage of St. Pat,
I couldn't pay my bills if I found a deposit of oil,
I'm so far in debt, I think my blood is starting to boil,
I'd put my money where my mouth is and pay my bills,
But I can't afford them like retired couples trying to pay for pills,
My motivation is that I can't miss next week's 24,
But I've got three dollars to my name; I need twelve thousand more,
I've got a sports bar, a nice car, they'll go away,
When I get the next call from my local bank,
Maybe I could go on Oprah, get a little extra money,
But I can't afford the postage to mail my request to Ms. Winfrey,
I'm looking for a kitchen that can serve me my evenin' meals,
People call me Gary Coleman because I can't afford to pay my bills,

(Turn off the stove),
Where's my heating at?
(You've gotta pay your bills),
Want me to pay my what?
(Your, your bills,
Your, your gas bills),
My house is gettin' cold because I can't pay my bills,
They say,
(Get out your house),
Where 'm I living at?
(You've gotta pay your bills),
Want me to pay my what?
(Your, your bills,
Your mortgage bills),
They're taking my home and my car's being sold,

Come on,
I start to feel cold with every single breeze,
I'm shivering all night as I am living on the streets,
You can catch me in court next week,
The companies are letting me speak,
I used to fly to Hawaii just to get a little tanner,
Now I can't afford a package of the Arm and Hammer,
I've moved all the way from the top to the bottom,
Now I'm looking worse in court than the bearded Saddam,
At first I missed a couple payments and then it became very hard,
Now I can't even afford a stinkin' library card,
I can't focus, I just need some money,
I can't get a job because I smell too funny,
I'm up to my neck, it's one hell of a thing,
I wouldn't answer my phone even it did still ring,
Lawyers have my picture up on their walls,
They all want to sue me and make the calls,

(Bring me his car),
Where's my "mobile at?
(You've gotta pay your bills),
Want me to pay my what?
(Your, your bills,
Car payment bills),
End bad credit scores and just pay off all my bills,
They say,
(Throw him in jail),
Where is my lawyer at?
(You've gotta pay your bills),
Want me to pay my what?
(Your, your bills,
Taxes and bills),
I get the top bunk here until I'm sixty years old,

Boy,
Why didn't you just pay?
Did you think you could get away?
Every time I see you,
The first thing that I want to say, hey,
Is,

(Bring me his TV),
Where're my possessions at?
(You've gotta pay your bills),
Want me to pay my what?
(Your, your bills,
Your outstanding bills),
Sitting in a cell because I don't pay my bills,
They say,
(Bring me his cap),
Where is my favorite hat?
(You should have paid your bills),
Want me to pay my what?
(Your, your bills,
Your, your, your bills),
I skipped some payments and now I am broke.

There's a new Superman
No more Kid Rock and Pam
We watched Deal or No Deal

And a new single Britney
There's STILL the Simple Life

QUOTE (Electronics by spacedingo)
(*Ironic by Alanis Morrisette*)

A high school dropout sits at the register
Calls his manager for a pricecheck on a printer
It's a great deal, as long as you don't need a cartridge
It's not included and that model's not in stock at this store's department
And isn't it frustrating? Don't you think?

You can't buy an Eminem cd, cause it's edited for content
But kids can buy video games with loads of violence
Here's an hdtv with a screen with a line through it
It's the electronics department at Walmart!

Don't bother asking for help with getting a video game
the guy's gotta talk to his girlfriend who he hasn't seen all day
And when he hangs up he gives you an angry glare
How dare you ruin his relationship just because you wanted the new Warioware
And don't you just want to hurt him? Don't you think?

You can't buy an Eminem cd, cause it's edited for content
But kids can buy video games with loads of violence
Here's a dvd set, and they're all loose from the package
It's the electronics department at Walmart!

Oh they're employees have a funny way
Of sneaking up on you and asking for help when you're clearly all set
But when you actually need help
They're nowhere to be found and avoid you like you have
the bubonic plague

It's the customers cramming their carts in the tiny rows
It's the guy ringing your orders after he just picked his nose
It's paying 50 bucks for a 30 dollar game
It's the clerk turning off the security marker
And the alarm in the front of the store going off on you anyway
And isn't it annoying? don't you think
Wanna arm yourself before you go in...yeah I really do think

You can't buy an Eminem cd, cause it's edited for content
But kids can buy video games with loads of violence
Is there such a thing as shopping cart road rage
It's the electronics department at Walmart!

They have a funny way of sneaking up on you
Just don't bother asking for help
Asking for help

QUOTE (V For Vendetta by avesjohn)
(*Dani California by Red Hot Chili Peppers*)

Getting born in the country of Great Britain
Don't know who he is, but he's here on a mission
Parliament building, he was gonna blow up
Price you gotta pay when your leaders get corrupt
He never knew that he was ever gonna meet a girl
What in the world? What did the government take him for?

Clothes all-black, and a Guy Fawkes mask
Destroy the Old Bailey with a big bomb attack
He's a vigilante, rebel, and a terrorist
On his merry way acting like an anarchist
Chancellor Sutler givin' off a bad vibe
Just another reason to die..

V for Vendetta, rest in peace
Simultaneous release
V for Vendetta, show your face
Go hide now, cops on the chase
Yeah, yeah

You're a lover, and a freedom fighter
You can see it coming, the future's gonna be brighter
With a cause like V for Vendetta
Day was gonna come when Evey was gonna mourn ya
A little cunning, he was stealin' another breath
He loves his Evey to death

V for Vendetta, rest in peace
Simultaneous release
V for Vendetta, show your face
Put that Chancellor in his place
Yeah, yeah

Who knew the other side of you?
Who knew what others died to prove?
Too true to say good bye to you
Too true to say say say..

Push the button, get the train movin'
Blow it up now and then you'll be cruisin'
Like the guy in The Count of Monte Cristo
Gotta love revenge more than you love your girl

Down in the Underground you were savin' the best for last
It only hurts when I laugh
Gone too fast..

V for Vendetta, rest in peace
Simultaneous release
V for Vendetta, show your face
Covered in burns, hard to replace
Yeah, yeah

V for Vendetta, rest in peace
Simultaneous release
V for Vendetta, show your face
You're gonna miss it, Evey's embrace
Yeah, yeah

(*Irreplaceable by Beyonce*)

To the curb, to the curb…
To the curb, to the curb…

Mmmm, to the curb, to the curb.
Everything that fits in that bin to the curb.
I’m afraid of greenhouse gas
And I wouldn’t mind the extra cash.

You can say I’m conforming
Trying to stall global warming
But, I don’t care if you disagree
It makes sense to me if we’re saving a tree.

Walkin’ through the front yard it seems much to your chagrin
Carryin’ my two brand new multi-colored bins
My wife insisted…

Please don’t throw in the trash
Anything made of glass
Or aluminum or elastic
Or nearly anything made outta plastic, baby.

There is another plan
For your used soda can
They can make another one by tomorrow
But hold on to that bag of Cool Ranch Doritos
It’s non-recyclable…

I don’t see why you refuse.
I’ve tried to reduce and I’ve tried to reuse.
Drink a Snapple by the dockside
Then turn it in and save carbon dioxide.

And there’s no debate
A banana peel quickly does biodegrate.
You know you’re in deep
When you build your first compost heap.

Standing in the front yard wearing gloves on both my hands
Soritng out empty ketchup bottles from pop-top tin cans
And you assisted…

Please don’t throw in the trash
Anything made of glass
Some aluminum or some plastic.
Doesn’t take anything very drastic, baby.

Take it as flattery
I saved that battery
I’ll refill another color ink cartridge
But I don’t know about that pizza box with grease stains
It’s non-recyclable…

To the curb, to the curb…
To the curb, to the curb…
Mmmm, to the curb to the curb..
Take everything that fits in that bin to the curb.

To the curb, to the curb…
But forget about that vacuum cleaner dust bag.
It’s non-recyclable.

QUOTE (Please Roll Over by U62)
(It's Not Over by Daughtry)

I was going to say
We had a nice day
Our love was heaven sent
Then we went to bed, you and me
And it went downhill from there

I just need to get some sleep tonight
But somethings wrong and I don't know why
You're snoring away, snoring away
It sounds like you're sawing wood

Loudest thing I've ever heard, hands down
Please roll over,
Just stop making all that sound
Please roll over,
Wear two pairs of earplugs just to drown it out
Your snores are killing me
Come on now would you just
Please roll over

You're keeping me awake
And I cannot take
Hearing this all night
BreatheRight strip, put this on
Before I kick you out

You know I'm trying everything
What is wrong with your breathing?
You're snoring away, snoring away
It sounds like your sawing wood
And you sure are sawing good.

Didn't your mom ever say you were this loud?
Please roll over,
I just can't ignore that awful sound
Please roll over
So stinkin loud it could drown out a crowd
Your snoring's killin me
Please, please if just this once
Please roll over

How'd it get to be this way?
Just get out, just get out
Stop thinking only of yourself
Just get out.

Please roll over
Just stop making all that sound
Please roll over
Got a pillow on my head just to drown it out
Your snores are killing me
Why aren't you listening...
Please roll over         

Hi there Rover
Please scoot over
Yes I would rather sleep
In a doghouse built for one
Good night Rover

QUOTE (Devil by GrayJ)
(*Level by The Raconteurs*)

My baby is the devil
She gonna kill us all
I'm on the path to hell
She used to be a doll

But I can't see just why
If you're wanting me to die
I would have much prefered
To go with suicide

{Guitar Solo}

My baby is the devil (My baby is the devil)
She gonna get you too (And you, and you, and you)
I'm startin' to get tired (I'm startin' to get tired)
She'll haunt me all the time ('Til the very day I die)

Oh well what did I do wrong now (Whatever did I do)
It was just one bad night (A night out on the town)
That's all I've got on me (Now you really should call)
The ol' S.P. hotline

All parodies can be found here: forum/index.ph...=0&#entry427542

Please vote for your LEAST favourite, not your most.

If a mod would be nice enough to merge this into Idol Gameplay? Thanks.

Apparently you can't merge polls so I'll set up a new one...any votes cast will have to be redone.
I'm ranking every Beatles song on my new pop culture blog. Check it out!

Cowellmentary!

UnionJack
Well, this is pretty good, apart from the fact that it's a bit over done. I mean, it's creative, but I would've prefferred something a bit less... Timberlakeish and repetitive.

YouTube (Broadcasting Yourself)
YouTube. Like MySpace, it lends itself to parodies well, but many of them probably won't hold itself up in this game. This one, however, is quite good.

Duct Tape
Well, a parody of a TV theme. Original, I'll amit, but this really didn't do anything for me, except for the subject.

Billz
Rap songs are, i find, to be the hardest to write for, but they either are really great, or uber-crud, and this is more leaning towards the great side.

2006
A recap of the year. Highly original and very true.

Electronics
Probably my most favourite of them all. Well done.

V For Vendetta
Haven't seen the movie, and I really didn't plan on seeing it. And then this parody came along. Now seeing the movie in the 'If it's on TV and nuthin' good is on another channel' pile. Alright.

Non-Recycleable
Very good. One of the best of this bunch.

Please Roll Over
This one is good but... there's something missing. I dunno what it is, but there just isn't that thing that a lot of the better parodies have.

Devil
Wow. I'm sorry, but this is the worst of them all. It's not funny, it's too short, it doesn't seem inspired.

Voting will close this Friday.

Okay! Voting is now over!

GrayJ, I'm sorry but your Idol journey has come to an end.

Same for Numbers.

So... What a first round that was! Around two months long. Anyway, the next subject will be announced on Sunday. Hopefully round two will be more organised.
