The Lyrics
*This parody title doesn't actually make much since with the parody itself. It's actually inspired by the "Homonym Police" pointing out that I used the wrong word homonym wise(on a previous parody of this song). This parody is really a practice of using the wrong form of words in the lyrics(with asterisks by each one). Homonym Police, this one goes out to you. Have a fun! Enjoy!
Oh, the games we one*, while we had fun
all those games we one*, while we had
while we had fun
The swimmer in this pull*, gives me a tool
and the swimmer in this pull*, gives me a tool
gives a-me a tool
The guy, and the guy stands around

Oh, the stakes* that cook, make my dog look
and those stakes* that cook, make my dog
make my dog look, yea..eah..
Ya..aa..aa..aa..aah

The buyer in this add*, sells me a pad
and the liar who will dye*, steals me a pie

when on this bus we'll stand.. stationery*
And the bore*

and the bore* and bore*
the bore* runs 'em down
and the bore* and the bore* and the bore*
the bore* stomps around

the bore* runs 'em down

another nice idea Stephen :-) - 555
Yes, a very unique twist, here
Very clever stuff
Just want you to know that I was not the Homo Cop, despite my previous parody "There. Their, They're";... And the new submission on homonyms that appears Wed. 12 April was written and submitted before I saw this.
Teaching by negative example can be very effective and is really a clever twist. (yes, without the * some might have thought you didn't know better - good idea) DKTOS , but 5 for the idea and execution, and I'll trust you and the three knowledgeable souls above on pacing.

Hahaha! Grate idea hear Step-chan. 5s.
Thanks for the votes and comments everyone! Don't worry Tommy, I never suspected you were(I don't think I seen that parody).
Stephen, that's practically asking for a plug... OK, can't resist... http://www.amiright.com/parody/60s/thebyrds27.shtml
Okay, I know that one, I'll vote on it here shortly.
I'm surprised that the Homonym Police didn't comment on this. After all, they inspired the idea. ^___^
