"Farting Tonight"

Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

For The Great Karlando, it was a Monday Night Football kind of song. For
me, it completes my trilogy of songs for the aged ("I'll Be" and "You've
Got Depends" being the other two).

My body's gonna break some wind
It'll smell like poo
My body's gonna cut some cheddar
Nothin' you can do

Inside my poor digestive tract
Pressure's building strong
No use in tryin' to hold it back
In this nursing home

There's gonna be some farting tonight
Some farting tonight, I know
There's gonna be some farting tonight
Some farting tonight, I know
Lord, I know.....

Some people hold it in till bedtime
Some folks can't hold out that long
I think the more you hold it in
The more it comes out wrong

That meatloaf that they served for dinner
Tasted so bad, so not right
The way it's churnin' up my innards
Rectally it feels like dyn-o-mite

There's gonna be some farting tonight
Some farting tonight, I know
There's gonna be some farting tonight
Some farting tonight, I know
Lord, I know.....

There's gonna be some farting tonight
And methane is light
Though sphincter is tight
My friends are in flight
There's gonna be some farting tonight
Some farting tonight, I know

(Bassoon solo)

My body's gonna break some wind
It'll smell like poo
My colon's gotta air it out
Nothin' you can do

Inside my poor digestive tract
Pressure's building strong
No use in tryin' to hold it back
In this nursing home

There's gonna be some farting tonight
Some farting tonight, I know
There's gonna be some farting tonight
Some farting tonight, I know
Lord, I know.....

Shoulda passed up all the lima beans
The artichokes and prawns
The asparagus and devilled eggs
Look out because there's gonna be some
Farting tonight
Some farting tonight, I know
Whooo-haaa!

(Tuba solo with added sound effects)

Take that fart!

I'll bet that when you finished this parody you thought "well, that's better out than in"... ;-)

I give you 5's, and now I want to hear from the Master of Cosmic Flatulence Parodence........ Guy DiRito...... sir, your expert opinion, please!

Bob, feel free to call me if you're in town. Last week my phone was out three days. Jam and record?

That tuba solo really made me laugh! =) What a topper!

Phil: it really depends on where you're sitting, I guess. Mac: I forgot to tell you I had broccoli too. Sorry. Johnny D: Thanks, man. A Toast to The Human Body: endless fount of amusement and embarrassment. Rick D: I'll call you about jamming/ recording next Friday--that should work for me. Diva: I'm so glad you enjoyed the solo bit. It's one of my favorite ways to incorporate the reader's imagination into the song. This means that YOU rocked the house! Peace to Wild Man and kids. d;:^)

This was so gross but I was laughing my butt off! (Insert funny 'flatulent joke' here) The fact that it's in a nursing home made it all the more funny. Heheh...GJ! :-D

It took me a while to figure out what the heck you were talkin' about in your intro. I remembered I had done a Heartache Tonight parody, but what it was about had escaped me, probably because I don't reallt think of it as one of my better efforts. But now that your intro makes sense, I can finally give ya the 5's you deserve. Good job dude.

Bob, this really, really stinks. Well done. I'm telling Johnny D. that it is in good company that I get to share the FLATulent NOTEd parodies with out here. Your cheese cutting humor is as good as it gets.

I used to deliver medicine to nursing homes. This song is the real deal. I carried Vicks around to apply before I went in the worst ones. Five applications for this one!!!!!

Bob Gomez - February 21, 2004 - Report this comment

Birgitta: thanks, glad you enjoyed it. I have this stupid fantasy of doing these songs when I'M in a nursing home. "I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash, I've Got Gas Gas Gas!!!" Karlando the Great: Yeah, man, I had to check out what had been done before and yours was a good effort. I did not steal any lines from you, though; from the Eagles, yes, obviously. Guy: thanks, dude, glad to know I'm on the cutting edge. Paul: wow, that is so gratifying to hear that the song took you back to the olden days. Now, exactly where did you apply the Vapo-Rub??? We're all dying to know!! d;:^}

Bob, I'm adding this to the dieters' list -- lyrics that make you lose your appetite! Looking forward to doing more 3-fart harmonies with you!
