The Lyrics
"Kokomo", as recorded by The Beach Boys, hit the Adult Contemporary Billboard Charts in 1988, and also the Hot 100 Charts as #1 that same year...
Well I really hate "Kokomo"
(Not the only one, I know)
Yes I really hate "Kokomo"
Sakes alive!
I could take you dancing for a silly polka
And I can stand "Livin' La Vida Loca"
But I really hate "Kokomo"
Don't know why
I like many songs that suck
That make chicks blubber
And I can take Stevie Wonder's "Part Time Lover"
But I really hate "Kokomo"
It's so trite
I'll even take songs by Air Supply
Or Barry Manilow, or Dionne Warwick's "Walk On By"
But please, don't play Eskimo
I will bribe!
How 'bout Seals And Crofts now?...
(opening bars of "Summer Breeze" gently hummed...)
A dead dad's duet
With Natalie Cole
Or even the light ballads of Mr. Billy Joel...
Yes, Billy Joel
But I really hate "Kokomo"
Really hate "Kokomo"
(Not the only one, I know)
Let's hear some Il Divo...
Please, just don't play "Kokomo"
(Not the only one, I know)
Yes I really hate "Kokomo"
Sakes alive!
I could take you dancing for a silly polka
And I can stand "Livin' La Vida Loca"
But I really hate "Kokomo"
Don't know why
I like many songs that suck
That make chicks blubber
And I can take Stevie Wonder's "Part Time Lover"
But I really hate "Kokomo"
It's so trite
I'll even take songs by Air Supply
Or Barry Manilow, or Dionne Warwick's "Walk On By"
But please, don't play Eskimo
I will bribe!
How 'bout Seals And Crofts now?...
(opening bars of "Summer Breeze" gently hummed...)
A dead dad's duet
With Natalie Cole
Or even the light ballads of Mr. Billy Joel...
Yes, Billy Joel
But I really hate "Kokomo"
Really hate "Kokomo"
(Not the only one, I know)
Let's hear some Il Divo...
Please, just don't play "Kokomo"

What happens when you submit a parody after only getting 3 hours of sleep the previous night is that you screw up line #17.
Not bad, once again I would have enjoyed it more if you finished the song with mockery of the various bands. This one would have worked expecially, but it was still good.
That was awesome! 5s
as a member of the "no mo kokomo club", i give this resounding fives
he he I had a feeling you were going to use Kokomo with this.
