Parodies - 4

Parody of "Head Over Feet" by Alanis Morissette (by Weird Alex)



I had a choice and went with you

You took me to the games at the fair

I thought about it

You treat me like I'm a princess

We went to all the great games

And when we'd finished



You'd already won me a Grover, in spite of me

Though I'm so clumsy I'd fall head over feet

So don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are

Though I couldn't help it

You won after all!



Your aim was straight, right to the goal

You're more accurate than I gave you credit for

That's not lip service



(Chorus)



You are the bearer of trinkets and things

You held your breath and won some more for me

Thanks for your patience!

(rubber duckie solo)

You're the best marksman that I've ever met

You're my best friend

Best friend with benefits

Didn't take you too long



I've never felt this wealthy before

Of little stuffed and furry animals

I'm quite aware now

Of your great flair now



(chorus)

Parody of "Ironic" by Alanis Morissette (parody by Weird Alex, inspired by melvan)



An old man eating piles of hay

Turned real green and died the next day

It's like eating black flies mixed with Chardonnay

It's a bologni sandwich turned a mottled gray



Isn't it moronic, don't you think?



Like singing rain with three syllables

A free ride to where you don't wanna go

That bad advice, you just had to take

You should have thought, cuz it figures



Mr. Play-It-Safe was afraid to fly

Until one day he thought he'd give it a try

The problem is, he forgot to note

He didn't have wings..."Splat" was his final quote

And wasn't he moronic, don't you think?



Chorus



Well stoopidity has a way of sneaking up on you

Just when you think you're pretty sharp and OK

And you think you're doing something right

Yeah, stoopidity has a funny way of making you look dumb

When everything goes wrong and then it all just blows up in your face



A traffic jam you caused while you were late

A no smoking sign on a barbecue display

It's like 10000 moons above the earth tonight

Meeting the man of your dreams... then realizing he's someone's wife



Now isn't THAT moronic, don't you think??? A little too moronic... yeah,

I really do think!



Chorus



Stoopidity has a way of sneaking up on you

Stoopidity has a funny, funny way of helping you out...

To look like a lout

Parody of "The Lament of Desmond R. G. Underwood-Frederick IV" by Steve Taylor (parody by FadeAway)



Dedicated to the IRC addicts of #bannerman



Oh, the news of the impending split

Came at a very bad time for me

Yeah, the news of the impending split

Any other day might have been OK



I was starting to join channels left and right

I was getting prepared for another big night

But when the servers start rumbling, do beware

Makes you feel like pulling out all o' your own hair



FadeAway, if I may be so deep

Chatting should never pre-empt your sleep

Undernet, Dalnet, it doesn't matter

If you must irc or eat, choose the latter



(guitar)



Oh the news of her impending /QUIT

Came at a really bad time for me

I was far too young to appreciate

The complexities of a cyber-date



I used colors so much that she typed "/me swoons"

I played too many wavs, so she left the room

Now I'm getting requests, and they all say "/HALT"

And I'm pretty sure this is my .. server's fault



FadeAway, if I may tell you something

Colors and wavs, they may count for nothing

Offer her {{hugs}} at your own discretion

Better get ready to learn your lesson



(guitar)



Oh the news of my impending /QUIT

Came at a really bad time for me

When they drop your account at the ISP

Tends to steal a bit of the old joie de vivre



I'd just gotten my nick on another page

'Cause I bravely revealed my true name and age

I had set up five channels all of my own

Until a still small voice screamed on the phone...:



"FadeAway, if you don't pay your fee

Gonna deny you your I-R-C

Then we'll get nickserv to drop your nicks

So you'd better get money to us by 6:00"



FadeAway, if I may be so deep

Chatting should never pre-empt your sleep

Undernet, Dalnet, it doesn't matter

If you must irc or eat, choose the latter

Parody of "Sock Heaven" by Steve Taylor (parody by Beldin)



Out of Canada

Into the network

sings the clones higher

belting out a classic, he shocks!

lotsa parodys tumbling out together

couldnt sing forever

now we're missing the qaz!



lord where does he go?



one guy waits with their gfot in a bot!

another guy nervously mocks melvan!

intoverts lost in the big world take heart

surely there's space up in qaz heaven



out of canada

into the network

couldnt just retire

had to try tempting the bots

one little chan'l spinning round together

couldnt cling forever

god I think we're losing our mates

seven good months

followed by a feeling

we'd hit the lost feeling

maybe he wont disappear

pick any network

pick a lost packet

if you can hack it

misfit you do belong here



lord where did he go?



one guy waits with their gfot in a bot!

another guy nervously mocks melvan!

intoverts lost in the big world take heart

surely there's space up in qaz heaven



didnt want a channel to speak some more french

didnt want a webpage in net heaven

didnt want more than to be understood

maybe there's space up in qaz heaven

lord where did he go?



were gathered here to

keep the world guessing

maybe not just guessing

maybe they're not guessings at all

chatt'n on the bot with very lit'l attention

did we fail to mention

this time you were destined to crol

and every day the net dies

just a little more

I was sure you were

lovingly watching us wrangle

dont get it now

but we'll get it when in qaz heaven

we'll see it all from your angle



one guy waits with their gfot in a bot!

another guy nervously mocks melvan!

intoverts lost in the big world take heart

surely there's space up in qaz heaven



didnt want a channel to speak some more french

didnt want a webpage in net heaven

didnt want more than to be understood

maybe there's space up in qaz heaven

lord where did he go?
