The Lyrics
A little song about everyone's favourite cartoon dad (before The Simpsons came along), Fred Flintstone.
I get up around seven,
Eat dinosaur eggs around nine.
And I'm in a hurry out the door,
I gotta get to the Quarry on... time
I usually punch in around eleven,
But I had to be there at nine.
Mr. Slate is really getting' angry,
Says I'm fired if I can't get there on time.
It's not easy being, Mr. Flintstone.
Barney's knockin'.
He won't leave me alone!
No, no, no, he won't leave me alone
Wilma's getting mad and Dino is a drag,
And now Pebbles is rolling on the floor.
Betty's always over and my shaver is a gopher,
Now Bam Bam is breakin' down my door.
Schemes I'm always planning and Barney's always laughing,
Wish I could dump him out by the shore.
Wife and kids I gotta dodge to attend the Water lodge,
Everything I do feels like a chore!
It's not easy being, Mr. Flintstone.
Barney's knockin'.
He won't leave me alone!
No, no, no, he won't leave me alone
Wish I could stay in bed forever,
I don't wanna get up this time.
Cause' that Barney Gumble, he's a real muthafucker-
Killin' him would make me feel just fine.
Wilma's getting mad and Dino is a drag,
And now Pebbles is rolling on the floor.
Betty's always over and I'm just barely sober,
Now Bam Bam is breakin' down my door.
Schemes I'm always planning and Barney's always laughing,
Wish I could dump him out by the shore.
Wife and kids I gotta dodge to attend the Water lodge,
Sometimes I can't take it anymore!
It's not easy being, Mr. Flintstone.
Barney's knockin'.
He won't leave me alone!
No, no, no, he won't leave me alone
Barney, leave me alone
My family's such a riddle and I'm stuck in the middle,
And they, they drive me out of my mind!
Always causing mayhem, man I wish I never met 'em,
Said I'd, I'd leave it allbehindYabba-dabba-doo!
Eat dinosaur eggs around nine.
And I'm in a hurry out the door,
I gotta get to the Quarry on... time
I usually punch in around eleven,
But I had to be there at nine.
Mr. Slate is really getting' angry,
Says I'm fired if I can't get there on time.
It's not easy being, Mr. Flintstone.
Barney's knockin'.
He won't leave me alone!
No, no, no, he won't leave me alone
Wilma's getting mad and Dino is a drag,
And now Pebbles is rolling on the floor.
Betty's always over and my shaver is a gopher,
Now Bam Bam is breakin' down my door.
Schemes I'm always planning and Barney's always laughing,
Wish I could dump him out by the shore.
Wife and kids I gotta dodge to attend the Water lodge,
Everything I do feels like a chore!
It's not easy being, Mr. Flintstone.

555 great. If you would like a more morbid version see yesterdays Mr Tombstone I did. :)
Thanks for the comment. Yeah, I saw your parody yesterday...it made me smile.
Thanks. PS--You did a excavating job on the chorus, I found it fairly limited, but yours is rock solid. :)
Very....well done! :)
