The Lyrics
The last track of the Mr. Bungle album 'California', for your parody amusement. DKTOS? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3B3ObT8DzgA&feature=related
I'm hip, so I think
No thanks to my mother
But what's the message
To get from That '70s Show?
Goodbye Topher Grace
Living at Point Place
Dopy Eric loving Donna most
On and off again but why?
Red and Kitty parents
Not so cool to the guys
Goodbye Topher Grace
"Spiderman 3" took him away
Jokes from our past now are sly witticisms
For the future
And Hyde now fears for you
When all he says came true
Goodbye Topher Grace
Reruns on the way....
(a mysterious smoke begins to fill the air and the entire computer screen you are reading now turns 360 degrees as a queer feeling of peace, love and tranquility suddenly invades your mind....)
huuuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...
Wilmer Valderama is more than I can handle
Fez is almost the star ------SHOCK!!
Maybe he can find another role
For now, dear friends, let's share a bud...
huuuuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...
ROCK!! ...Rock, rock, rock, Ooga-shucka, ooga-shucka ooga-shucka! ...(whoo, whoo, whoo!)
Rock, rock, rock ooga-shucka, ooga-shucka, ooga-shucka, ooga-shucka, ooga-shucka, ooga-shucka, ooga-shucka, ooga-shucka....
(Ride the circle, ride the circle, we're alright dude, we're alright dude, wooh yeah dude...)
One thing to ask
Before they clear up all the smoke
What Dad or Mom
Would name their little son so?...
I mean, "Topher Grace"?
Goodbye Topher Grace...Goodbye Topher Grace...Goodbye Topher Grace...
(sounds of deep exhalation, orgasmic panting, guitar chords and fireworks and smokebombs and cymbals crashing and bottles breaking and bra-straps snapping at the end of the KISS concert, with the crowd cheering in ecstacy for a night they will only vaguely remember, fading into nothingness...the end)

Nice tribute to an Awesome sitcom!
I also am an on/off fan of That 70s Show. I wasn't really a fan at first, but that changed as I sat down and watched a few. These songs you and Matty are hitting are so unusual. . .so different.
BAD, thanks for the open mind about Mr. Bungle :). They were simply the greatest band no one ever heard! (but you can still hear their influences in System Of A Down, and Mike Patton brings his weird sensibilities to bands like Tomahawk, Peeping Tom and Fantomas.
A bit repetitive, but this is still a good ode to That 70s Show. 545
(ABC5 O) Interesting choice of music. Phrasing and structure are well done and the points on 70's Show are well said. I liked the comment at end about name of Topher? What a strange name. It sure wouldn't pass the 4th grade on the payground test.

I dunno - I'm not too keen on tribute parodies in contests. They just seem to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. But I will tell you that this is well written and 5 worthy, Is that "Topher" like in two fer Tuesday? =;-)

(ABC5O) Always like the show, and I relly liked the parody!
Hanging out! On Amiright! Same old song! That I read in '08! Not a thing to do! But 555 you!!! You're songs alright! You're song's alright!!! HELLO AGRIMORFEE!!!!
(ABC) Tough stuff. Hard to follow. I give you plenty of credit for taking on such a rare and unusual song. We're all all right! We're Amiright! 5-4-5.
(ABC5) I have to give you props for taking on an obscure song, but I have never seen the '70s show, so the only thing in this parody I understood was the Spiderman 3 gag. So...yeah.
ABC5(O) I had a problem with the OS selection - The vocals seemed to be so deeply submerged in the music I had trouble knowing when the lyrics were being sung and what words they were singing...As a result, I couldn't tell how the parody lyrics matched up with the OS.
Like all Mr. Bungles songs, I had trouble understand TOS at all, so lost in it, uh, wow Agri, you and obscure songs. . .LOL, well I'll give you the benefit of the doubt on pacing, I am familiar with That 70's show, but I guess I haven't seen as many of them as I thought. . .
Interesting OS, but I have to agree with Leo re: the difficulty following the parody to the song. Add in that I'm not familiar with That 70s show... better luck next time from me.
