The Lyrics

Here's another song everyone has done a parody to. So here's my (ahem) generation. Have Wikipedia handy.
When I try to write stuff d-d-down
(seeking out my inspiration)
Look for words with the same s-s-sounds
(it takes all my concentration)
I propose to break the m-m-mold
(here’s a twist on rhyme creation)
Help me make this tune unf-f-fold
(and there is no obligation)

This is my invitation
Here is more information, baby

Come on now, let’s st-st-start today
(listen to this explanation)
And make the first sound of the l-l-long ‘a’
(like the ‘a’ in ‘medication’)
Move your lips to make the next sound v-v-vibration
(second syllable location)
Make the ‘shun’ sound like in ‘p-p-punctuation’
( ‘a’ and ‘shun’ in combination)

That was your preparation.
Here’s your rhyme dispensation, baby

Pip succumbs to s-s-social sway
(Dickens wrote Great ___________ )
I wrote about this the other d-d-day
(Christmas lights are ________ )
Too much of this limits art-t-ticulation
(Drink some wine, a fine ________ )
Then travel on to a cool l-l-location
(Griswolds had a wild __________ )

Want some more situations?
More word associations, baby?

What’s the coolest trick in t-t-town
(See Criss Angel’s _________ )
Give to things you find prof-f-found
(Cash deductible _________ )
Sci-fi’s trilogy of o-o-old
(Isaac Asimov’s _________ )
INX’s tune of g-g-gold
(Talking bout their new __________ )

Those are my meditations.
Hope it met expectations, baby.
I think this is as close as I'm going to get to getting audience participation. More oddities on The Blogging Baker. (CAUTION: SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION AHEAD- PROCEED AT OWN RISK) And be sure to rate and share my video The Ballad of Jon and Kate now playing on YouTube.
