You all...I hate to tell you this but,

The song is, in fact, 160 words long.

The chorus is what this debate is about.

I like the line:
"I know if I put my mind to it
I know I can find a good rhyme here"
I am gone until June, as a result of the Junior Cert, a very large exam.

Yeah, I didn't even know it was a parody until a few months ago


I feel soooooo old now!!!

This is yet another instance where the parody is WAAAAAYYYYY better than the original. That original one was kind of annoying and not at all funny and way overplayed on the radio. The parody, however, is freaking brilliant!!!!

I like both. I dont think that the original was supposed to be funny. I kind of liked Georges video for it. But I really dont think George wrote it to be funny. But Al did.

RIP George Harrison.

George didn't write it at all; Rudy Clark did.

Ok I'm wrong sorry. All I know is George sang it, and it wasn't made to be funny. But I didn't know that.

May I ask how you knew that? Your younger then I am. What did you do research on this song. :P

Wait a second, look on the Mothership. It says George Harrison.
