Here is the submission for the Minor Celebrities!
Once in a while
When you hear a catchy tune
You might, reasonably conclude
That if you just change all the words
And add a couple jokes
That song about gang violence can become an ode to food
But hold it right there
It’s way harder than it seems
To create, a parody work of art
You might think it really works
As you sing it to yourself
I’m telling you the chorus is the only funny part
So don’t rewrite this song
Your premise isn’t very strong
Parodies by Weird Al are much better than yours
Oh, don’t rewrite this song
Ohhh, you’re just filling space
With your second and third verse
The lyrics, so unfunny it’s a crime
You’ve abandoned the song structure
And the pacing is way off
If you have to do that poop joke the least you could do is make it rhyme
So don’t rewrite this song (No no)
That extra syll-a-ble don’t belong
Parodies by Weird Al are much better than yours
Just don’t rewrite this song
I know that fair use covers
All forms of parody
I’m not suggesting that you have no recourse legally
If you insist on writing one
I hope that it somehow
Is better than the one I’m singing nooowwwwww!
Don’t rewrite this song (Don’t do it no no)
Your rhyming structure is all wrong (What’s that supposed to rhyme with?)
Parodies by Weird Al are much better than yours (They really are)
Oh, don’t rewrite this song
Don’t rewrite this song (Hey it could be funny if you)
Limit it to thirty seconds long (Remember YouTube)
Parodies by Weird Al are much better than yours
So don’t rewrite this song
