The Lyrics
Elmer's on the hunt again
Despewado
Whewe is that cwazy damn wabbit ?
Gonna cuwe that dang habit, of "What's up doc?
You'ww be a dead one
I'ww heaw no mowe of youw boasting
And soon I'ww be woasting you wight ovew my fiwe
Weww I'ww dwaw my twusty shotgun, boy
And shoot you when I see you
You know I'ww eat youw heawt wif fingew wickin' zest
When my gun goes off, just one thing:
Weww I wouwdn't want to be you
Cause I onwy shoot the ones that taste the best
Despewado
Oh you ain't getting no owdew
My fiwe wiww soon smowdew, whiwe cooking youw bones
I'ww eat him, yes eat him, and I ain't just a tawkin'
Owd Ewmew is stawkin' him thwough woods aww awone
And youw feet awe gowd when it's skinning time
Dis guy I know says the feet awe pwime
We'we gonna make a fowtune on ebay
Youw feet awe such a pwize you know
If I shoot one off Iww wet you wimp away
Despewado
Why not concede I'm the winnew
Come ovew fow dinnew, and hop on a pwate
I'm having wabbit: I'm gonna shoot it, not buy it
You best be vewy vewy qwiet
(Vewy vewy qwiet)
You best be vewy vewy qwiet
Ow ewse you'ww taste gweat
Whewe is that cwazy damn wabbit ?
Gonna cuwe that dang habit, of "What's up doc?
You'ww be a dead one
I'ww heaw no mowe of youw boasting
And soon I'ww be woasting you wight ovew my fiwe
Weww I'ww dwaw my twusty shotgun, boy
And shoot you when I see you
You know I'ww eat youw heawt wif fingew wickin' zest
When my gun goes off, just one thing:
Weww I wouwdn't want to be you
Cause I onwy shoot the ones that taste the best
Despewado

This is vewy vewy good.
Eh... What's up, Doc? Your score: 5.
oh how i'd love to see a video of this
hehehe....send this to the Eagles...they'll freak. Maybe not...they're pushing 60 and just made a platinum CD. They sound very good. Make that vewy good. Maybe they'll put this on another CD. This was so funny and easy to follow! 5's
Wonderfuw - loved the "owdew/smowdew" rhyme. What Alvin said- this would make an awesome videw
You and I are in a MELlow mood today, Dee. Hiwarious.
The Master has me under his spell again Very good, Sir. Your words take me back to the 70's during my days & nites with the Rancher's Son . . .listening to Linda''s version, which is my favorite.
I have never seen that many silent W's before. Fiwve-Fiwve-Fiwve
I weally weally liked it. OK, enough of that. Nice memories of cartoons from days of yesteryear. (westerwear?) I miss Elmer and Bugs...
whoa is this Mel Day? funny how that synchronicty often happens - loved the idea Dee - you're on a roll - and esp. loved "Cause I onwy shoot the ones that taste the best" - 555
I once shot a wabbit that was wabid. It was a wasqwewe wabid wabbit it was and scwey too. thee-a thee-a thee-a that's 5 folks.
Kiww da wabbit, kiww da wabbit...
Thanks all for the kind comments. Always appreciated. And to alvin and Phil, I advertised for a cartoonist to try and make a video of this, and am meeting a cartoonist after Christmas to discuss the possibility of getting it done. He doesn't know Flash, so it might just have to be something on the order of sequenced cartoon panels to go along with an audio. I'll post it on AIR if anything comes of it.
Basically pretty good, but a few lines are too heavy-handed and therefore not as funny, including "cooking your bones", but most particularly "I'll eat your heart with finger-licking zest", which is just gross.
What a wonderfuw gem I've unewthd wears wayter! Fantastic!
Hi-wawious!
In my hometown one radio station had an Elmer voice dupe named "Ozzy Fudd". He'd sing about having a bloody Easter and the chorus would go "Kill the wabbit! KILL THE WABBIT! KILL THE WABBIT!" and one of the last lines went something like , " and there's gonna be lots of dead wabbits this season! Huh-huh-huh-huh-huh!". My supervisor said when he first heard that he nearly lost control of his van and swerved into a ditch. This parody is a total wiot!
