Parody Written by:

Johnny D

They missed her trampoline, man - made a splat to see!
On that movie set, with all the cameras rolling too...

They missed her trampoline, man - made a splat to see!
In a single mangled morning, they dropped out of this world

Stunt Director, she said, "Boys,
It's time for you to fall -
From a platform not so tall -
Don't you be concerned at all -
It's as safe as it can get -
You just have to hit,
the trampoline that's under it"

The Stunt Men looked up and said, "Ma'm,
That platform in the sky -
Looks like it's eight miles high -
If we miss this we will die -
But, we're macho, we'll go for it!"

They missed her trampoline, man - made a splat to see!
On that movie set, with all the cameras rolling too...

They missed her trampoline, man - made a splat to see!
In a single mangled morning, they dropped out of this world

Gaffers, Grips, and Best Boys ran,
To see what they could do -
And the Stunt Director too -
When they reached that pile of goo -
They all knew just what to do -
Grabbed a camera, and,
they filmed it for a horror-flick...

The Stunt Men, they won every kind
of posthumous reward -
Academy Awards -
All those Oscars, what a hoard!
All Hollywood applauded them...

They missed her trampoline, man - made a splat to see!
On that movie set, with all the cameras rolling too...

They missed her trampoline, man - made a splat to see!
In a single mangled morning, they dropped out of this world

What a fresh idea! I thought at first this was going to be about accidental pregnancy from misusing a diaphragm. However, having worked in Hollywood, stunt men generally use airbags. ( I know, picky, picky)

Sorry it took so long to comment on this; turns out I'd already voted though. Sick but fun, loved the "eight miles high" reference
Johnny D - December 22, 2003 - Report this comment
Thanks, Claude - I think you're the first person to specifically mention noticing the "Eight Miles High" reference I slipped in.

Johnny D - Good one! Well, nuts...Claude already glommed onto the "8 miles high" reference - and that was gonna be my witty remark to add on to this note. Oh, well...5's anyway...
