The Lyrics

There are currently eight parodies in the AIR archives with the name Karen in the title, but only four of them seems to be about this rather new derogative meme type function of the word. Here's a fifth!

A YouTube version of the original song can currently be found here.
Last week a crazy woman, came barging to our store
Last week a female cliche, stood screaming at the door
She flailed like a baby, ”I want the manager NOW!”
And when he were'nt coming she stomped like a cow
And then

For an almost hour, she aired grow... grow... growls
When a Karen yells, you need towe... towe... towels
For an almost hour 'gainst wet, wet drool
When a Karen's on the, the prowl
What a tool!

She's not like neighborly, more like powder keg
Unjolly pirate without a cool wooden leg
What set her off and brought her to us there?
D'way she got off we should have called the fuzz!
Because

For an almost hour, she aired grow... grow... growls
When a Karen yells, you need towe... towe... towels
For an almost hour 'gainst wet, wet drool
When a Karen's on the, the prowl

They're making wild transgressions
Attacks on the go with much fervered aggression
And they're popping up almost anywhere
All along, screaching on, they are human malwares

She gave her mind, to us then
A million words, or more
All our retorts, in vain was
Her mission's not obscure

Would've sold our souls for zip ties
A tazer or have her drugged
She scorched us all, and we just gaped
Prayed God, prayed God, prayed God, prayed God
Would have her cakehole plugged
Because

For an almost hour, she aired grow... grow... growls
When a Karen yells, you need towe... towe... towels
For an almost hour 'gainst wet, wet drool
When a Karen's on the prowl... prowl... prowl
What a tool!

Oh yeah, crazy Karen
She airs growls
Grow... grow... grow... grow... growls

Her tiny little braincells
They air growls
Grow... grow... grow... growls

I’m one of the few Karen contenders with a title almost the same as yours lol Loved this so I won’t have to speak to your manager lol

They say that great minds think alike, or so I've heard. :-)

I actually have a kid sister named Karen, who is nothing like this steteotype at all. She is, in fact, sweetest and most tolerant of my four sisters. In short, my sister Karen is no Karen (?) .... OTOH, another sister could be deemed an OberstgruppenKaren (OberstKarenfuehrer?) she is so karenistic in her outlook

Plural - Karenwaffe? :-)

Lest we forget, there is also Die Karensmarine (Seaborne Karens, mostly seen on cruise ships) not to mention Die Karentruppen, who deploy in their Panzer Karenwagons to conduct Karenkampf harrassment raids in pursuit of their nefarious goals.

I'm beginning to think there might be a medium size list parody about germanized Karen troups tropes possible.

I was going to put down a few more Karenistic Krautologisms, but I was just informed by a particularly miffed Karen that if I continue to insult her Karenraden she'll be speaking to the site administrator ... (Tip of hat to Matthias
