The Lyrics
Corrected the pacing and other errors in the original post because I plan to record it and it's one of the "Epic 40" over at inthe00s. . .When recorded it will join my other parodies at badave.com
I’m just a Pool-Boy prophet
with test strips in my pocket
and I’m scrubbing off the Algae at dawn
I’m just a Pool-Boy prophet
can't go close to the sockets
'cause I'm all covered in water ya'll--boy
See I've gotta strong back to carry your D.E.
and I scrubbed all that grime from your deck indeed
Through the weekend cleaning all your debris
I'm gonna use my pool sweep dear, and then pump had quit
Your pool's bizarre but now these things I can fix
Sweat was drippin' from my lips and my scheduling conflicts
Well I just fixed it now
It's working wow
It's working wow, wow, wow ,wow
Cause I'm the Pool-Boy Prophet
Pool is green, but I'll solve it
and I'm waiting for your butler to call
Cause I'm the Pool-Boy Prophet
Yes the Acid, I spit it
just pull your check book from your pocket ya'll
Said I'm the Pool-Boy Prophet
from Salt systems to patch it
I've got everything you need and more-oh
Yeah, I'm the Pool-Boy Prophet
Maybe Bromine will solve it
and I charge you by the minute ya'll -ya'll
Well if you're all bent out with stress, just write a check check check check
I don't smoke cigarettes cause I'm wet from that hole in your ground
Your pool's PH is near nothing in the deep end
Well I can plainly doubt you cleaned your filter,
and you've got grease all on your tiles
And is it outside your comprehension that chlorine is worthwhile
Oh get a grip there's no need to get riled
I'm starting this operation with my own style
Grab a slice of toast and then I'll read the post
because I’m heading to your place, at your pool the sun will roast
Your pool's a moat, not tryna' be a butt hole, it's really gross
Grab some booze, dead bodies float
Cause your pool is my vocation and I'm quite the sensation
See I wear this little thong, it's the ultimate temptation
You say, "I like your style from the ground up"
Swallow my pride, we'll I'll wear less for 20 bucks
Yeah I'm the Pool-Boy Prophet
Calcium just may fix it
oh for swimming it is me you should call
Yes I'm the Pool-Boy Prophet
for some more I will drop it
and I’ll show off my rocket ya'll
I'm the Pool-Boy Prophet
Got Chlorine in my pocket
and I'm slating you for tomorrow, come on
I'm the Pool-Boy Prophet
Got black algae I'll fix it
and I'm solving all your problems at dawn, dawn
(Long Instrumental Pool Cleaning Video)
Well Cal-Hypo's dispersing
through your pool it is traversing
Well your water's clean now
and it's looking superb
Some extra tabs I bring
and I never do curse
Picked up my ringer
it's your neighbor and her pool is worse
Now you know I'm the top
of all the Pool-Boy Prophets
and everybody else agrees
that I'm the best out on the market
I'm a whiz
I can rule this biz
Just cleaning out your pool, call this kid
I'm just a Pool-Boy Prophet
and I'm gonna clean your pool out this morn'
On the Job
I am the Pool-Boy Prophet
Keep my card in your pocket
Cause you can bet I will be there on time
I am the Pool-Boy Prophet
Got rust stains and I'll solve it
Pullin' out your check book
oh come on
I am your Pool-Boy Prophet
and wearing tight outfits
as I'm waiting here for your call oh
See I'm not like no other
Cute as you'll discover
With the talent
to make green go away
Even if your pool is filthy
Yeah, I contain the ability
to get rid of every piece
of green and yellow algae
Spell my name out right
On that check you write
All the grannies say, "Dave you look so pretty"
Work in the sun-light baby
Tanning all through the day they say
"I wanna see you daily"
No way, way, way
Wo--yaaa
Somethin's different in your pool today
Oh it changed
Just pay my fine
It is turning yellow
I'm cleaning
hey, hey he-a-ey
Somethin's different in your pool today
Oh it changed
Just pay my fine
It is turning yellow
Cause I'm the Pool-Boy Prophet
The Pool-Boy Prophet
The Pool-Boy Prophet
Yes I'm waiting for your butler,
Yeah I'm waiting for you butler to call
OH I'm the Pool Boy
Call me up in the morning
Pool Boy Prophet
I can ease your pain
in the summer
Hey-ay-ay Hey-ay-ay-ay
Somethin's different in your pool today
Oh it changed
Just pay my fine
It is turning yellow
with test strips in my pocket
and I’m scrubbing off the Algae at dawn

(ABC4P) Sounds like some pocket pull toy going on here.
Believe me... I'm still amazed that you pulled this one off. Spectacular work here Dave, and I can't wait till you record this one this weekend, it's going to be tough, but I'm sure you can pull it off, because your a Recording Prophet... This is sure to get Top Marks in the ABC for sure.
We don't swim in your toilet . . . So please don't pee in out Pool. ~the Management
Line... I love you. That totally made my day.
Geez, I know we've talked about this one, can't believe I haven't commented until now. Superb write and very funny. Some of the chemical terms might slip past those not familiar with pools or water chemistry (e.g., "D.E."). Pulling this off will make ITEOTAWKI look like singing "Kumbaya", lol. "Yes I'm the Pool-Boy Prophet/for some more I will drop it/and I’ll show off my rocket ya'll" LMAO. 555
(ABC) Why have I not commented on this one before? This one I remember as your first really big challenge...a song NONE of us ever heard before, I believe, and a hard one at that. Big delayed kudos for you.
(ABC4) I know I've commented on this before, it was in the Parody Decathlon Mark 2! Still brilliant!
(ABC4) say, have you ever been a pool-boy Dave? - your knowledge of the topic is outstanding (although it would take a lot of DE for that stuff to ever become heavy - where do they get that stuff from anyway?) - 555
Great job here Dave. The pH for this is 5...5...5 (do I have to say it 3 times ?). Put that in your speedo...
Guy DiRito: Thank You:)
Matthias: Yeah, so far this is the hardest of the Epic 40, but I love the OS, Thanks Bud
Red Ant: You probably commented on the original post, I sometimes spot major issues I want to fix, this was one of those cases, so I resubmitted it, it does help that you've seen me perform EOW, but yes, having now performed it--Curbside Prophet is the toughest song I've had to perform to date.
Agrimorfee: You did, it was in Dec2 but that version had some 2nd verse pacing errors that somehow got copied before I had corrected it, so I reposted. Thank you, and I hope I'm not the last to do this one, it's hard but it's a fun OS to work with. Thanks Agri.
TCOP: You did, and thank you:)
Stuart: As a mater of fact I have, and I've had to carry 100 pounds of D.E. before doing it (Commercial Pools get heavy). Thanks Stu
Invisible Boy: I will, and thank you!

It's like taking the Nes-tea plunge!
You already know what I think about this one. It's a Below Average Dave classic. This is going to be the one to beat in this comp.
Yeah, you won this Artistry round hands down, Dave. It's got all the standards of a great parody. Creativity, a little research, consistent tone, subtextual humor even.
(Artistry) With this parody and a cameraman I'm betting you can have your own show on HGTV.
(Artistry) See above!
(Artistry) Way to dive into this one! Great job!
