The Lyrics
Whoever is a fan of Gilligans Island: This is for you. Enjoy!
Just plomp on back and you'll become deaf,
Be deaf of my story,
A Story I started 120 minutes ago,
I don't remember the rest because nothing else happenned,
But the gay was mighty sure,
That the mate was a girl. "EWWWW!"
5 un-lucky passengers,
were stuck all day with me,
Having to hear a funny tale,
Of the gay man's ship.
I then got struck by lightning and passed out on the ship,
The passengers pled guilty and then got sent to jail,
But they coudn't go,
Because there wasn't one around,
There wasn't one around.
Their ass set ground on a desserted Island,
Got stuck with the gay guy and Gilligan,
The pig, the horse, the cow.
Lets not forget that damn rooster!
I'm gonna kill it!
So that is the story of Gilligans tale,
They just wouldn't die!
They better get protection,
Because I'm getting sick of this,
The gay guy, and his pig,
Will do their best to marry eachother.
"NO MAKE-UP!"
"NO JEWLERY!"
No peace loving,
Like the cow,
as gay as it could be,
So join us every week,
To see how gay we are.
Now thats my story,
I can't believe you still are alive,
..........Wait, your not,
OH WELL!

I watched a lot of Gilligan's Island when it was first run show, then forever after in reruns. Somehow, I can't match your lyrics to the melody I remember. Nor to "Amazing Grace", "House of the Rising Sun", "America the Beautiful", "Little Town of Bethlehem", "Ghost Riders in the Sky" or any other of "Gilligan's" alternative melodies.
Thank you for the critisism. It is my first time doing these parodies and I can use advice.
When I was watching the reruns in college, there was a lot of speculation about the sexual orientation and hanky-panky amongst the castaways. It would make for an entertaining song. A good idea would be to try to find the original theme on youtube, which is a great way to refresh one's memory. The original lyrics are no doubt available elsewhere. It takes a lot of work to match the syllables and rhyme, and I'm still struggling with it after nearly 50 songs. It's quite rewarding when you get it right. My reference to "Amazing Grace" is based on a recording by "The Blind Boys of Alabama", gospel group that recorded the lyrics of the Christian hymn to the old blues melody of "House of the Rising Sun". Many songs can be transposed between melodies. I'm sure there are more than I listed. The strangest one is the interchangeability of the Nazi "Horst Wessel Song" with the Celtic lament "Danny Boy". That actually came to me in a dream one night. Keep experimenting and you'll nail the right song and idea. This is a fun hobby.
Okay, that was pretty painful. Can't overlook that. Can't lie. Pacing, meter, subject matter all could use vast improvement. BUT, if you are sincere at wanting to improve and are having fun, keep going. That's the most important thing. I encourage you to keep writing and re-writing which is the most important part of writing. Good luck and look forward to seeing you improve! No scores from me because you know you need improvement and it wouldn't be fair for a first attempt. E for effort though!
Thanks for the advice. I am trying on other songs, but I have to find the right time to do it so that I can get it perfect the next time I do it.
hahahahaa really funny!!!!!!!!
Thanks.
