The Lyrics
Here is the first submission in a temporary on-going series of parodies. Having been in the parody writing world since 1983, I have decided to share with Amiright some of the parodies that I, sheepishly, feel don't pass the bar as far as "good parody writing" but have still kept in my archies. These are for entertainment and educational purposes. Think of these like authorized bootlegs--warts and all. Pacing, context and creativity may or may not be followed in these submissions. Rate if you will, but keep in mind that these were part of the maturation of a now responsible, but still quite insane, American male. That does fit in nicely with the theme of this first nugget found in Agrimorfee's Attic.
I am deranged
That's what they sall all together
The world turns grey, they don't understand and so I
Jump around as fast as I can
Throw a lit match on my hand
Then I run away, scream in the night
Then they try to restrain me
And I give them a fright and then I say
I think I'm OK now
Doesn't seem to be any monsters around
I think I'm OK now
The ticking of the clocks still gets me down
Look at the way
That I fit into a strait-jacket
Now what would you say
If I took a cat and smacked it
And then I
Jump around as fast as I can
Throw a lit match on my hand
Then I run away, scream in the night
Then they try to restrain me
And I give them a fright and then I say
(Chorus, repeatedly, ad lib)
[Editor note: Additional "ad libs" I included for the Tiffany version]
Don't you see the blinking eyes?
Can't you hear the clocks tick?
Don't care what you say
That's what they sall all together
The world turns grey, they don't understand and so I
Jump around as fast as I can
Throw a lit match on my hand
Then I run away, scream in the night
Then they try to restrain me
And I give them a fright and then I say
I think I'm OK now
Doesn't seem to be any monsters around
I think I'm OK now
The ticking of the clocks still gets me down
Look at the way
That I fit into a strait-jacket
Now what would you say
If I took a cat and smacked it
And then I
Jump around as fast as I can
Throw a lit match on my hand
Then I run away, scream in the night
Then they try to restrain me
And I give them a fright and then I say
(Chorus, repeatedly, ad lib)
[Editor note: Additional "ad libs" I included for the Tiffany version]
Don't you see the blinking eyes?
Can't you hear the clocks tick?
Don't care what you say
