Song Parody Fragments:

"The Street Where You Live"
Better Lyrics:
People gawk and swear, that don't bother me
'Cause there's nowhere else on Earth that I would rather pee
Let the slime go by, I don't care if I
Can pee here on the house where you live
Original Lyrics:
People stop and stare, that don't bother me
'Cause there's nowhere else on Earth that I would rather be
Let the time go by, I don't care if I
Can be here on the street where you live
