The Lyrics
She likes machines, yeah!
Yeah, right between the ground and she!
With a louder sound she rides in the night
Only place it fits is right
Goes fast, no fear, she can blast away from here!
Well, you don't know what
This may hide
Why don't you try and give this a whirl?
It's a magic rockin' ride!
(Well) You don't know how
This might be
Why don't you try this ride and see?
Sybian will set you free!
Close your eyes now
Take a ride now
Let the hum shake you away
Last night I held your tremblin' hand
And as you rocked and rolled and swayed
Upon the magic rockin' seat
Well, no one dared to make you walk away
You looked
Around
And then collapsed upon the ground
Well, you don't know what
This may hide
Why don't you try and give this a whirl?
It's a magic rockin' ride!
(Well) You don't know how
This might be
Why don't you try this ride and see?
Sybian will set you free!
Close your eyes now
Take a ride now
Let the hum shake you away
Yeah, right between the ground and she!
With a louder sound she rides in the night
Only place it fits is right
Goes fast, no fear, she can blast away from here!
Well, you don't know what
This may hide
Why don't you try and give this a whirl?
It's a magic rockin' ride!
(Well) You don't know how
This might be
Why don't you try this ride and see?
Sybian will set you free!
Close your eyes now
Take a ride now
Let the hum shake you away
Last night I held your tremblin' hand
And as you rocked and rolled and swayed
Upon the magic rockin' seat
Well, no one dared to make you walk away
You looked
Around
And then collapsed upon the ground
Well, you don't know what
This may hide
Why don't you try and give this a whirl?
It's a magic rockin' ride!
(Well) You don't know how
This might be
Why don't you try this ride and see?
Sybian will set you free!
Close your eyes now
Take a ride now
Let the hum shake you away

JD - Excellent, you sailed this one right on by. Never saw the "Master Better" at his craft. Nice job, sir.
Thank you Guy !
I parodied this song myself not long ago, and I must say this one is at least as good. 5-5-5, and a great display of changing most of the lyrics while staying on track with the original rhyme scheme. And it was hilarious too.
Thanks, Freedom Rock ! Did something happen to the webpage when you tried to cast your vote ? Your vote didn't register - you might want to give it another go - thanks again!
Yeeeeee-haaaw, this contraption sure does move, JD. We'll get a speeding ticket for going 5-5-5 in a 55 zone.
Extremely good parody, Johnny! 5's. Yeah, it did sail right on by...:D
Thanks, Adagio!

Adagio - your vote didn't register.....at least the count didn't change....
Ok...got it. :D Johnny
Tempting to just hum this one, all day. *G*
Thanks 2nz, Adagio, and Melhi !
I'm not sure which I like best-- your parody or Guy's comment
Vote is now registered, and out of the other 13 voters (so far), none are rhythmically challenged or deprived of a sense of humor, at least when it comes to this song. The vote I cast was, of course, 5-5-5.
All I have to say about htis is how Johnny Bravo's name would appear in a phone book Bravo,Johnny!!!!!!!! All 5's!!!!
Thanks Royce, Freedom Rock, and Jack !
Email me Johnny - we need to talk... hee hee. ;-)
What's yer email address, Mer ? Hee Her >;-D
Oh and Mer - didja vote? Voting was quirky today, didn't seem to register at certain points during the day - please check, thanks!
Hehe...that was a good comment, Guy!
I did vote, but you are right - it didn't register... So I just voted again. Oh and I am Meriadoc33@hotmail.com.
Thanks Meriadoc!
LMAO that (1) you did a song about the Sybian, and (2) that it got through. Forget Santa Claus - Johnny D is the man with all the toys.
Thank you, Mighty Spaff !
Johnny D - missed this while I was on vacation up North. Great job! I'm posting a parody on "My Carpet Ride" and wanted to make sure it was pretty much unique. This is a great one... 5-5-5
Hey, thanks, Paul R. !
