The Lyrics

"Bozone (n.): The substance surrounding stupid people that stops bright ideas from penetrating. The bozone layer, unfortunately, shows little sign of breaking down in the near future." - Mensa Invitational winner
He professed he would maintain that sop,
But burning was his very shame
'Cause something of a 'fraidy he was
And "The Wuss" was his name.

He's not it, Yeah baby he's not it.
Well, he's a big wuss, he's our ire, he should retire
Well, he's a big wuss, got no fire, he should retire.

His bozone layer tried to look wise
Making every scam a plan
Back from the fight he was
Snot tried to look all bad.

"I got 'em. Yeah baby I got 'em."
But, he's the big wuss, he's our ire, he should retire
Well, he's a big wuss, got no fire, he should retire.

He's not it, Yeah baby he's not it.
Well, he's a big wuss, got no fire, he should retire
Well, he's a big wuss, got no fire, he should retire.

"Bozone"---Ha! I love it! Hey, doesn't the Bozone-Layer prevent Ultra-Brilliant-Idea-Rays from penetrating?

Hee! Sure does, Johnny. Thanks.

"Bozone" Is hilarious, and this parody is damn fine. 555

The introductory comment needs further explaining. The Mensa Society challenged people to just add a letter to an existing word and come up with a new one, with a definition.

I feel like I'm missing something -- who is this about?

Bozone--a good portmanteau word. Good parody too.
Jeff Reuben - April 29, 2005 - Report this comment
Bozone--hilarious, and thanks for the explanation. Good parody!

Thanks Kristof, Leo, John B and Jeff.

Leo, it's about nobody in particular, just wusses in general.

555. I have a new Mensa society word for you: " Adagiod " ( verb. ) To make a funny parody as in the style of the person named Adagio. Adagiod ( noun. ) A rare gem or crystalline structure encased in a pentagonal casing, only found on a website known as www.amiright.com. Okay, perhaps not Mensa material, but my IQ is only twelve squared plus the reciprocal of one-ninth minus (two to the fourth power) ( roughly ).

Ant...that could have another meaning too.

This made me laugh! Well done, Adagio...5s

Thanks Rick C.

What would that be? That I am lying or qualify for Mensa? The answer is 137 which is true ( varies from 135 to 140 on almost every test I have taken ). Or is it something else of which I'm oblivious? ( which may get me a Darwin Award vs a Mensa Card ). Not trying to show off here as I'm sure no one needs to know my test scores, just leaving a comment ( now 2 ) that related to the parody and some flattery towards you and your parody. :)
