The Lyrics
The song "Poinciana", written in 1936, has many covers, and I decided to go with this lush vocal version. I added extra lines to the ending. OS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1F4mfIFgFWA Topic: http://www.cialis.com
Point Cialis
In the direction of your love.
You’ll rise
Just like the torrid sun above.
Point Cialis:
It helps you feel that pulsing beat.
Those gold pills
Bathe you in sweet and spicy heat.
If your old romance
Won’t dance, hangs limp and flat and bored,
Try our golden pill;
It fits the bill; you will have soared!
Point Cialis:
You’ll climb up higher than the skies.
Slowly,
You’ll hear your groans turn into sighs.
Point Cialis…
(instrumental break)
Point Cialis:
You’ll feel your joy begin to rise.
Alice
Will take you into Paradise.
Love’s let you down?
Let you hang near the ground?
We’ll help you fly!
Climb the heights! Reach the sky!
Love is in view!
She will now welcome you.
You hold the key
To unlock passion free.
In the direction of your love.
You’ll rise
Just like the torrid sun above.
Point Cialis:
It helps you feel that pulsing beat.
Those gold pills
Bathe you in sweet and spicy heat.
If your old romance
Won’t dance, hangs limp and flat and bored,
Try our golden pill;
It fits the bill; you will have soared!
Point Cialis:
You’ll climb up higher than the skies.

You’ll hear your groans turn into sighs.

Or as Gracie Slick used to say, "Go grab Cialis; now you're ten feet tall." (Hat tip to some guy named Patrick for that one)
Reads like an advert
this isn't funny at all, just a commercial rip-off. 1s
Satire goes over some people's heads. She riffing on the grotesque annoying ads--that's the point.
Leon: you should have given me 4 or 5 on the pacing. Whether the parody is funny or not is up to you, but I deserved better for the pacing. Give credit where credit is due, please.
