Song Parodies -> Ozone Hole
| Original Song Title: | "Kodachrome" |
| Original Performer: | Paul Simon |
| Parody Song Title: | "Ozone Hole" |
| Parody Written by: | Johnny D |
When I think back on all the crap we burned to stay cool
In our summer air-conditioned halls
And all our freon, CFC's, and greenhouse-gassy fumes
It's a wonder we're still here at all
Ozone hole
You give us that nice bright UV
You give us sunburns in summer
Makes us think all the world's in cosmic rays, oh yeah!
We slather on that sunscreen
We're wearing stupid wide-brimmed hats
Oh how can we take that Ozone hole away?
If you took all the tanning booths I've put my face in
And shined them all together as one light
I know they'd never match our sweet Sun's illumination
And all my skin feels safe only at night
Ozone hole
You give us that Ultra-Violet
You make us wear cool sunglasses
You keep the South Pole Station crew inside, all day!
We got some sun-proof clothing
We built an Earth-sized umbrella
Until can we take that Ozone hole away!
Come on now take our Ozone hole
Come on now take our Ozone hole
Come on now take our Ozone hole away
Come on now take our Ozone hole
Come on now take our Ozone hole
Come on now take our Ozone hole away
Come on now take our Ozone hole
Heal our holey Ozone dome!
Come on now take our Ozone hole away
Come on now take our Ozone hole
Hmm-mmm-mm!
Come on now take our Ozone hole away
Okay!

Once again, you've impressed me with your good yet parallel ideas. One of my best originals is called "Hole in the Ozone". Once again, I say you should be writing originals. Don't get bent when I make these weird comments to you. I am just amazed at how much syncronicity is on this site, and you're a big part. Gave you 5's. There's an old joke. "Wow, you're a genius! You know the same things I know!"
Thanks Rick - I love finding synchronicities, it's kind of a hobby of mine. I could imagine doing a parody called "Hole In The Ozone" to the tune of "Down In The Boondocks":
"Lord have mercy, our world's got a hole in the ozone ! "
"Lord have mercy, our world's got a hole in the ozone ! "
As an expression of how much I enjoyed this, I give you a quote from my favorite human, Steve Martin: "Do you ever wonder where all the farts go?... They go into the atmospere and form the Fart Zone. It's just above the ozone layer. This is why we MUST PROTECT THE OZONE LAYER."
Holy ozone this one was good. Nice job JD.
Great job!
Great work Johnny ! And Spaff, love that Steve Martin. The reason he got benched as Quaterback in high school.
He kept calling for punts...
on first down.

This was great Johnny!
Gee, thanks very much, Spaff, Guy, Adagio, Wild Man, and Meriadoc! I didn't think that this parody was one of my better efforts.....so your encouraging feedback means a lot to this ol' geek !
Hey, you're definitely in the zone with this one...the O-Zone, that is! Some of the strangest things in my life have been synchronicity type events too...
Thanks, Old Comedywriter!
