The Lyrics

I realise this song actually does rhyme.......
If I could learn to rhyme
If I could find a way
All my songs would be much better
Hey hey hey

I don't know why I wrote the things I wrote
I come across like a dyslexic goat
I've got no fans and not one word of thanks
Words are like weapons, and I'm firing blanks
I didn't mean to write this rubbish
It's all extraordinarily bad
I know I made you groan, not clever

If I could learn to rhyme
If I could find a way
All my songs would be much better
Hey hey hey
If I kood lurn to spel
I'd write good songs for you
Doo-bee doo-bee doo-bee doo-bee doo-be doo

I keep on trying but I really suck
I'm getting random- big red 18 wheeler truck
When you gave me "ones" I swore that I didn't care
But I lost everything, darling......grizzly bear

Too dumb to not use words like "penguin"
Too proud to give the whole thing up
I want to be Bob Dylan, big problem

If I could learn to rhyme
You'd send some fives my way
But I just rhyme "heart" with "fart" every day
If I could get some skills
Then I could be a star
Waffle waffle tutti frutti la-di-da

All the girl singers are trying to be Madonna, but Madonna is still trying to be Cher -- and Cher's 12 years older, looks better, and can actually act. If you could learn to rhyme... you'd be one up on the Emerald-Veined Pooches. But since you HAVE learned to rhyme, here are some words that (sort of, in some cases) rhyme with "Fitzgerald": feral, G/Jerald, herald, Merrill, peril(ed), quarrel(ed), Terrell. There's your opening. Don't wreck it!

I don't really care for Cher myself; but this was a really great parody. I vote 5-5-5.

There's a lot to be said for a lady who is as old as Chief Powhatan but still looks as good as Pocahontas (well,almost,in both cases!)

For some reason...and really, don't ask me why...random mention of goats ALWAYS makes me laugh...really hard. Again...I don't know why...so don't bother asking...but, needless to say...the dyslexic goat line won me over! SOO GREAT! 555!
