The Lyrics

As all die-hard Beatle fans know, the classic Beatles tune "Yesterday" was originally titled "Scrambled Eggs". Here, for the first time in public, are the original lyrics for "Yesterday", found recently in Paul McArtney's old footlocker at the Abbey Road studios-- scrawled on the back of a takeout menu from the local eatery.

Scrambled eggs
All my troubles seemed so far away
But it looks like they are here to stay
Oh, all I eat are scrambled eggs
Every day, I would have my eggs a different way
All of a sudden I would eat them all day
You know what it was, it was scrambled eggs
There is something wrong,
What it is, I cannot say
It is gnawing at my brain
Why do I love the scrambled eggs?
In an omelet or dessert soufflé
I have turned into an egg junkie
Oh, I am stuck on scrambled eggs
"That food's gotta go, take it slow"
All the doctors say
I say, "You are wrong"
How I long for scrambled eggs
Scrambled eggs
It is such an easy food to make
For a meal or just a quick snack break
Oh how I love the scrambled eggs
Mmmm,mmmm,mmmmm!

You are now the fourth one to use this title. I was the third. Not a criticism. Just a commentary on how warped minds think along similar lines, and it's very humbling to join this group of warped minds, and find out that we are indeed, a "roomful of monkeys".

Yeah, Rick, I was a little embarrassed to notice this after I entered the tune and then found the other songs. Being first written in 1984 though (with slight revisions since then), I still think mine holds up well. Believe me, there's a lot of crap that I wrote over the '80s that I won't bother throwing on here (including a Ghostbusters parody called Home Dusters that's just as piss-poor as you would expect. ;))

I didn't tell you that to complain. (Other than to commiserate because it happened to me a bunch, too.) I immediatly felt a kinship with you on the first day. After testing the waters, I came in here and slammed all may beatle parodies on here, only rewriting a few that were horrid. Your taste and subject matter seems very close to mine. Please feel free to peruse my submissions and let me know what you think. I'm gonna keep an eye on you, and I'm curious to know what city you're from.

Pacing was difficult to catch, especially the omelet/souffle line. Nothing that can't be fixed, though. How about "On my toast/In an omelet or dessert souffle..."? d;:^)

It's actually a really bad parody. It doesn't rhyme at all and it doesn't fit in the original rythm. Soory man but it's quite bad.

Tom... Agrimorfee wrote this in 1984, so it's obviously not up to what he writes now or even what he did when he originally posted this.

The parody isn't that bad, but I'll give it 3s since that seems like a fair score...
