The Lyrics

i like to be...amused by he
i dig dr. seuss's novel escapades
the tales he spins...so full of whims
i dig dr. seuss's novel escapades

read "hop on pop"...and you will see
why dr. seuss is special to me
i like to be...amused by he
i dig dr, seuss's novel escapades

"green eggs and ham", says sam-i-am
"i will not put away...i just don't crave"
upon cat's head...a hat of white and red
in dr. seuss's world, he misbehaves

yertle sings and climbs around
way up on top...he'll soon be found
i like to be...amused by he
i dig dr. seuss's novel escapades

when whos shout...and air it out
ol' horton...comes by...to hear the wails
(horton always hears the wails)
rhymes enjoyed...a fox in sox employed
grinch, once...unhappy...now regaled
(grinch is so regaled)

it must be...mulberry street for me
and i think you'd really like it too
i like to be...amused by he
i dig dr. seuss's novel odd views
i dig dr. seuss's novel odd views
i dig dr. seuss's novel odd views

Another Beatles tune with a great write. Well done, Alvin.

Alvin - I've never heard anyone say they did not like Seuss and I've also never heard of anyone not liking your parodies. So once again you put Suess on the loose. Fine job - too bad he's gone and we shall never read another of his witty and clever poetic ballads. Fine write Alvin.

I always dug Dr. Seuss when throughout my toddler to kindergarten years! My faves are Green Eggs and Ham, Hop on Pop, One Fish....Cat In The Hat, etc. I've always wanted to try Green Eggs and Ham and to see how it tastes! LOL! I watched this Nickelodeon show "Ned's Declassified" and Ned in the show did a report on Green Eggs and says: "I read a book called Green Eggs and Ham. It's about a guy named Sam who doesn't like ham. I mean, c'mon, who doesn't like ham?" Also in Hop and Pop, I love the part with Red, Ned, Ed, and Ted sleeping in the same bed and when angry pop yells "STOP! YOU MUST NOT HOP ON POP!" That still makes me crack up! Well, I'll stop here for now and give you 555's for this Seussical Satire!

You and TJC ... and I (you've already read/v/c his Seussian parody and my mass-Seuss response).

One song, new song
Three Fives; no wrongs
Faves of mine are Hobbes and Calvin,
Dr. Seuss, and, of course, alvin!

I think this parody is sweet and it can't be beat. 555! The grinch is one of my favourites,I've seen the movie at least 20 times, Jim Carrey is so funny in that movie- yet again, Jim's always been one of my favourites.
