Song Parodies -> "96 Beers"

Original Song Title:

"96 Tears"

 (MP3)
Original Performer:

Question Mark & The Mysterians

Parody Song Title:

"96 Beers"

Parody Written by:

Andria

The Lyrics

A parody about drinking beer in excessive quantities after a breakup, resulting in non-fatal alcohol poisoning. Need I say more?
Too many brewskies
For one gal to be drinking
Not enough reason
For my life to carry on

I'm way too drunk now
Since he left me
Depression's bearing down on me

Hey, look at this
I have got some Coors beer
And I'll drink it all
In just a little while

And then I drank 96 beers
And then I drank 96 beers
I almost died, died, died
Died, died, died, died, died, died

And then I drank 96 beers
And then I drank 96 beers
I almost died, died, died
Died, died, died, died, died, died

I almost died



This is NOT autobiographical, and I know the situation of surviving the consumption of 96 beers is impossible.

Good companion piece for " 9 Caronas".
Andria - March 06, 2009 - Report this comment
Thanks, 2Eagle. But isn't that famous Mexican beer spelled "Corona", as in the 1970s Toyota product or a feature of the Sun?

I'm with Alvin on that last comment! I had my share of breakups and lost loves 4 years ago. I remembered one time this guy I was with moved to Florida and I was drinking heavily with a friend in order to keep my mind off of missing my boyfriend. I was wasted that night. Luckily I wasn't the one driving, though. That is why I can relate well with this parody that you wrote. 96 tears and 96 beers for guys we lost! Here's 5 Coors, 5 Michelob's, and 5 Heineken's for ya!!

Thanks, Jason, this parody probably isn't as refreshing as some of those English beers you might be familiar with, yet it still delivers, thanks Alvin, lol, and thanks for the votes and adult beverages, Christie Marie.

ABC: Heard the OS only once before so something seemed a little off for me...not your fault, but mine. 455 days in rehab for you.

ABC "Sobering' advice once again, Andria!

Thanks, Abbott and Mark. BTW, Abbott, you forgot to vote.

It's a parody of a very simple song, and as such the parody ended up being simple, not bad Andria--nothing over the top though, but what can you do with so little to work with.

Coors beer? Coors was banned in my home state of Ohio until 1988 but a few years before I tasted it while visiting my cousin in Memphis. That juice tastes like industrial slop water. Couldn't that girl get tanked with something better than that panther piss in a can? ; ) Still, you made a good parody. I've heard the OS a number of times. Trivia fact for when you play on Jeopardy! : critic Dave Marsh in 1971 applied the term "punk rock" to classify this song and others like it. It was one of the first uses of this term - and this was before the Ramones! Kudos on your parody.

This is a pretty average day for me.... 96 beers especially if it's dollar beer night at the bar. Just kidding, I'm not that big of an Alkie.

Wondering what could have been done to avoid repittion here.

(ABC M/N) Nice to read/sing this parody again. Imbibed with humor! Sometimes people drink in order to keep up with emotions, as well as smoking. But since I don't smoke and only drink on certain occasions, I eat in order to cope with my emotions. Sure I'll gain weight and may have other health problems later on. Well, enjoyed this lots for the second time, girl! So keep on keepin' on!

Thanks to all who commented-

B.A. Dave: Agreed, very simple song. I have a parody of a very difficult song (the full-length, mostly Spanish-language Macarena) in the works, but my far-from-finished horror novel is taking higher precedence.

Brewster Punk: Yeah, it tastes bad, but it's cheap and cheerful. Boone's Farm wine coolers taste much better, are cheaper and get the job done faster.

Matthias: LOL! I don't recommend heavy drinking at your age anyway, unless you started out underage like me. :D

Agrimorfee: I admit, not my greatest parody, but certainly not the best. (I'm still going to contact Chucky G about removing all the parodies I wrote prior to 2008. They're as bad as Chucky is cool.)

Christie: Nice hearing from you! I haven't touched a cigarette in a while, but still drink like a sperm whale and eat quite a bit, so I have those proverbial shoulders to lean on. Don't know when you'll die, but I'm set to die between 2019 and 2035 due to my health history and weight.

Thanks to everyone, again for votes and comments, and I'm looking forward to seeing how I come out in the end of this ABC segment. And Mr. 1s, please explain why you left your signature vote, Do you not like Democrats? Animal lovers? Women? People in general? Alcohol? Or something else?

Wow 96 of them - ah, that's like four cases. I'll drink to that. How's your head? I did ninety-six beers way back around 2003 and I can't even remember what I wrote about. Drinking parodies are always fun to read. Good job.

(ABC5-MN) Not a lot to work with, but you did pretty good with what you had. 555-worthy.
DJ Blaze - August 15, 2010 - Report this comment
A little bit short for a comp parody, but very nice take on a very overdone subject, although you did spice it up quite a bit. 555

Personally, I preferred this one - and kudos for coming up with the title switch first.
