The Lyrics
Naked = Free Believe it if you like. Enjoy.
To be naked in the forest
That is what I’d like to be
To be walking fully nekkid
And to feel completely free
The trouble with the ivy
and the poison oak as well
wouldn’t use it as toilet paper
Else that’ll sting like hell
But they’re tearing down our forests
No, this ain’t a hippy tune
But if my mighty trees are gone, well
There’ll be nowhere to get nude
To be naked, in the forest
Please don’t knock it till you try
You’ll be free to scream “I’m NAKED!”
And no-one would bat an eye
So the music break has finished
I should probably say again
“to be naked in the forest”
Is okay just now and then
Being naked’s quite natural
You should like the way you’re made
But the scratches on my body
Shouldn’t tempt you, or, dissuade
That is what I’d like to be
To be walking fully nekkid
And to feel completely free
The trouble with the ivy
and the poison oak as well
wouldn’t use it as toilet paper
Else that’ll sting like hell
But they’re tearing down our forests
No, this ain’t a hippy tune
But if my mighty trees are gone, well
There’ll be nowhere to get nude
To be naked, in the forest
Please don’t knock it till you try
You’ll be free to scream “I’m NAKED!”
And no-one would bat an eye
So the music break has finished
I should probably say again
“to be naked in the forest”
Is okay just now and then
Being naked’s quite natural
You should like the way you’re made
But the scratches on my body
Shouldn’t tempt you, or, dissuade

HeyCam, I DKTOS (don't know the original song), but I dug the parody just the same. That's always a good sign for a new writer (it was better than your Food Fight parody). Just curious if you plan to be the site's resident Rush re-writer--and if you plan on re-tooling the '2112' suite!
I'm in agreement with Agrimorfee on this one... Deforestation is a terrible thing to behold... just ask Britney's esthetician!
Hey, appreciate the feedback. Resident Rush re-writer? I doubt it, I just happened to have a wave of ideas, good and bad. As for 2112, I don't think that other parody can be topped, maybe Hemispheres at some stage? See how we go.
Ahh, so you will try for possible Hemispheres! Look forward to it. Maybe I should put it to you in the form of a challenge. I challenge you to create the first parody of Hemispheres! Also seems Doppelbock's got quite a lead on numbers. Write more dammit!
Also, try writing a parody for 2112.... see how it works out.
