The Lyrics
Sight, revealin’s numbin’ poor ol’ me
Yeah, I’d blundered on most terrifyin’ scene
Not a doubt in my mind, not need rubbin’ of eyes
As my crop’s compromised with light-ish beam
Every ear of corn’s been swirled, you see
When the summer’s through, no profit, I will see
Though the reason’s unclear, fits my U.F.O. fear:
Sure that fearless beings from heavens, they have been...
I’ve got a crop that is whorled – spiro-graphic creation
And the circular rotation’s well defined
From above, they came down, little men of green abound
Work gloves useless now my crop has been whorled
Somethin' like a disc has earned disdain
And it's killin' me ‘cus grains are not for game
From the sheaves of the field won’t be much of a yield
An aggrievin’ ruin of snappishness do be
There’s unholy corn squished all aligned
Yeah, it seems I’m screwed, but hope that I will find
That the media will be thrusting fame on l’il ol’ me
And their greed - dollar signs, will mean I’m cheered
I’ve got a crop that is whorled – look at my consternation
At this cornly re-arrangin’ un-devine
It’s all grooved and it’s round; laser beams have singed the ground
Kind of crappy that my crop has been whorled
I’ve got a crop that is whorled – look at that degradation
And they’re so precise striations – well designed
From above, they came down, evidence displayed on ground
I done got me one them crop’s what’s been whorled!
Yeah, I’d blundered on most terrifyin’ scene
Not a doubt in my mind, not need rubbin’ of eyes
As my crop’s compromised with light-ish beam
Every ear of corn’s been swirled, you see
When the summer’s through, no profit, I will see
Though the reason’s unclear, fits my U.F.O. fear:
Sure that fearless beings from heavens, they have been...
I’ve got a crop that is whorled – spiro-graphic creation
And the circular rotation’s well defined
From above, they came down, little men of green abound
Work gloves useless now my crop has been whorled
Somethin' like a disc has earned disdain
And it's killin' me ‘cus grains are not for game
From the sheaves of the field won’t be much of a yield
An aggrievin’ ruin of snappishness do be
There’s unholy corn squished all aligned
Yeah, it seems I’m screwed, but hope that I will find
That the media will be thrusting fame on l’il ol’ me
And their greed - dollar signs, will mean I’m cheered
I’ve got a crop that is whorled – look at my consternation
At this cornly re-arrangin’ un-devine
It’s all grooved and it’s round; laser beams have singed the ground
Kind of crappy that my crop has been whorled
I’ve got a crop that is whorled – look at that degradation
And they’re so precise striations – well designed
From above, they came down, evidence displayed on ground
I done got me one them crop’s what’s been whorled!

Excellent :-)
For all newcomers to the site .. ie, people who have discovered this site in the last five years .. you may not appreciate who Merry and Pippin are, as they have only posted 30 or so parodies since 2015. But that represents a mere 5% of their total output of 576 parodies. In truth they are Amiright Hall of Famers. You should check them out whenever they submit something
Thank you Lennie, those are very kind words. I would have acknowledged them earlier, but I have been dealing with my mother's death in the last couple of days. So they have cheered me, thank you.
Thank you CML and Phil. :)
My condolences regards your mother. My own mother left this earthly vale in 2015, at the age of 93 .. on Christmas Eve, believe it or not. Still missing her sorely; her apartment was a gathering place for all my siblings. Now theres no place in Phoenix for the family to gather
A good old fashioned M&P parody, unsullied by spamed point values (because spammer doesn't know who they are i suppose)
Hey! Thanks Agri :)
