Parody Song Title:

"Are You Phonesome Tonight?"

Parody Written by:

Michael Pacholek

My favorite bumper sticker: "HANG UP AND DRIVE!"
Are you phonesome tonight?
Did you miss your turn right?
Are you talking while driving your car?

Does your memory stray
from that bright summer day
when they outlawed such talking by far?

Do the points on your license
prove you just don't care?
Do you gaze at your tickets
that cops gave you there?

Is your car full of pain?
You're pulled over again!
Tell me dear, are you phonesome tonight?

I wonder if you're phonesome tonight.
You know that someone said the world's enraged
when any of us play this part.
Fate had me giving a shove when you talked to your sweetheart.
Act One was when you met.
You loved him at first glance.
He bought you a cellphone
but no tooth-of-blue.
Then came Act Two.
He moved away.
You called each day.
And drove talking on the phone.

Honey, you swerved and you barely missed me.
And I have much cause to hate you.
And I'd rather go on hearing no more of your talk
and I will still berate you.

Now, the jail ain't bare
'cause you're standing there
with steel bars all around.
And if you're gonna talk on your cellphone
can you at least keep it down?

Is your car full of pain?
You're pulled over again!
Tell me dear, are you phonesome tonight?

Hey Chuck, can you change the title of this one to "21st Century Elvis, Part IX: Are You Phonesome Tonight?" It just occurred to me that it fits the series.

Sir Michael, Lord Pacholek, please don't change this title, Sir ! It is what makes it soooo hilarious, and we can hear Elvis trying to phone his PriscillaHoney!
