The Lyrics

This is a tricky song to parody as it has a complex lyrical nature. Song is about a person who had had a bad start in life but i supposed you gotta try and have a laugh at certain situations. ENJOY
A new day here is dawning
And I’ve got more tears to shed
I turned my dog into a pillow
I can’t believe my dog is dead
Oh where the hell I’m going
I can’t see past my face
I know where I gotta run
Right To spec savers
And steal a pair of rims YEAH

I was brought in to this world
Was found born in a bin
No one gave me anything
Well I had to steal all my everything
They all tell me that I’m bogging
And I’m a piece of crap
Can’t even afford cable
I do sleep on a table
My mirror is a frying pan

I’m living down in a 10-floor storey
I might just jump off the roof
My walls are brown they’re all so greasy
Never got a good start
And got dealt bad cards
Having no fun
Call me slum junk

I want to eat some cornflakes
But I haven’t got a bowl
I ask if I'll grow to be a pie man
A good job that I’ve been told#
You ask me if I've known love
I can tell you that its a god damn pain
Well I feel so dumb
And I feel I’m let down
I haven’t got a brain

I’m living down in a 10-floor storey
I might just jump off the roof
My walls are brown they’re all so greasy
Never got a good start
And got dealt bad cards
Having no fun
Call me slum junk

Solo

Each fight that I get in
I say to them don’t break my teeth
No I don’t wanna take it easy
But before I punched to sleep
God I got to ask a favour
Can you lend us twenty quid?
Cause I’ve lived life to the dullest
Can I get a fix please man?
Hair is like a mullet
Got I wish I had ten grand

live down in a 10-floor storey
I might just jump off the roof
My walls are brown they’re all so greasy
Never got a good start
And got dealt bad cards
Having no fun
Call me slum junk

Can't believe I missed that one! This "person" you mentioned may have had a bad start in life, but I have most of my bad moments as well! I've been feeling down in the dumps lately since I came back from San Fran,because my mom treats me like a f*king baby! She's so annoying! I would find a place of my own if only I had the money for it. (Sorry to bore you with personal problems). Anyways, this is such an interesting parody. Reminds me of this 1990 movie "The Super" with Joe Pesci in a way. It's all good! 555!!!

Sorry to hear your feeling sad, maybe my new entries tomorrow will cheer you up :). I dont mind listening to people talk I think sometimes in life were so caught up in our lives we seem to watch others pass us by its a shame, sometimes an assuring word from a stranger can make a person feel better. Thanks for claryfying the fridge/freezer situation who'd think something so trivial would make a good parody. I hope you feel happier soon. Cheers Christie Marie M

Gari, I once wrote a parody that I thought was pretty good, but I didn't get any comments. I've seen many parodies that got votes of 5s straight across but no comments, and not getting comments is definitely normal to some degree. Especially when the parody is about politics or religion. Anyhow, I really liked this parody, and I notice that your general theme is destitute, depressed people, which is a funny one in its own way. My parody themes are generally silliness, gross-outs, pop culture, and anything else that comes to mind. BTW, I hope you feel better too, Christie Marie. I know the feeling very well. 5s.

Yeah I guess Andria, I'm not saying that commenting on parodies should be complusory, just cool to know what others make of your work thats all. LOL :) Hows your parodies coming on.

Gari, my parodies are coming along slowly, and I have plans for submitting some more when I get the time to write them and the ink cartridges and paper to print out lyric sheets and finished parody lyrics. Thanks for asking!
