Writer, I was once in the blues
I said, I was new and learning the rules
I felt no one dared to enter this thread
I felt the whole test was so dead
Thats when Kristof gave me a hand
And said, Jason, take your head out the sand
It's a thread there called the SOTM
You can enter and do your best
Its fun to enter the SOTM!

nice inviation to a sort of invitational. :-)
That was great, awesome idea/title sub .5s
Thanks Jack and Stan! This took me AAGGEESS to write!
Now do "ABC" (should be easy as 1,2,3!) ;) Nice promo.
Thanks Agrimorfee! As I said above, this took me a very long time to write. I am still working hard to be on top of the SOTM leaderboard though.
This may motivate me to enter sometime.
Thaks for the shout out, Jase. Only too happy to lend a hand to newbies, if they turn out as committed as you, mate. 555
Thanks John and Kristof!
John B: You should enter. Your parodies are pretty good. Thanks!
Kristof R: You are welcome. Thanks!

I'm not an author myself, but I loved reading this parody. It still gets a perfect score from me.
cool
Thanks Ferragamo and Ann H.
One of your better writes, Jason. Good humor, great pacing, excellent chorus sub. Only thing I might have changed is the "They have all the help that you need to do well/
You can meet up with all the dudes" lines to rhyme a bit better and be less repetitive... and to include the women who enter SOTM. =)
I did get a bit lost in scanning this to the song, but I think I was listening to a remix (it's hard to find this OS on YouTube!), so no points off there. You definitely improved upon TOS. 555

Thanks Jack! Your feedback is always welcome. Its great to see my works getting great all the time.
In this, the first chorus is actually repeated once.
OMG! Some stupid prick unobombed me! Shame whoever did it is much to cowardly to leave a comment!
I got thrown by the extended first chorus as well. But all in all a very good parody.
The coward does it to me dozens of times.
Yea I have noticed. Can't understand why as your parodies are quite good.
Such an obvious title swap that I figured it should have been done already, but searching says no, so I say yes and give you 5s despite having to go for another source.
This was pretty decent, but the fact that it is too Amiright-esque is going to hurt you when it comes time to vote, because although we can relate to it this song is not open to a wide audience if it was recorded.
(SOTM) Is it what it says it is? Only after the votes are counted can we be sure. :)
See above!
(SOTM-Mar08) The SOTM idea went very well with the OS. And I do not doubt that you worked hard and long on this one. The OS at first glance looks easy to do but I have done this one and this is one author that knows it is no push over. "In The Navy" is even worse. I'm giving extra consideration for a good job on a tough song and your crack at the SOTM recognition. Good job Jason.
Hey Jason. Here you are in the SOTM. The parody idea was funny. I wish you nothing but the best in this round and in the future.
I'm starting to think it's me... another technically very good parody: well-worked and fits its subject matter well. But I still didn't find it very funny, I'm afraid.
See above!
(SOTM) As Matthias said, parodies about AmiRight rarely do well in the SOTM (I speak from experience). However, you did do a great job here, so there's that at least.
SOTM- Sounds like a great promo to bring more authors into the comps. Well done, Jason.
SOTM - I think it would been a little bit better if you mixed up the chorus like Red Ant said above.
Well, I have only made the podium once, so I know how you feel. What makes it worse for me is I'm always right behind the top 3 it seems. In fact, it's become rhetoric. Weenie on a Hot Bun, Full of Himself Rhapsody, Smelt You on the Bus Line--I've had so many that were "Number 4" or 5, and Churnalicious may join that list. I do particularly bad on the last day (as the one who does the math, I do see when I drop out, but I keep on trying none-the-less, Antarcitcan Terrorist--my one SOTM medalist that wasn't a Wild Card from last year, nearly dropped out the last day too, so I know how you feel)
Well written parody, Jason! So glad they gave you an SOTM for your SOTM!!! This would make the best theme song for AmIRight!! 555!!!
