The Lyrics

(Disclaimer:- it's just a comedy name - my wife & I'd like to state, there's no offence/confusion intended...that I'm NOT one of "them"!) (Opening line in brackets are incase you're listening to the live version!)

(A fright, from a quack...
is just a fear of the duck)

I am a man who walks alone
On public footpaths near the road
Too close to water - and I'm gone

You may call them feathered friends
Some of you even feed them bread
But you won't see me near the park

Fear of the duck, fear of the duck
I have a constant fear a waterfowl is near
Fear of the duck, fear of the duck
I have a phobia there's one surveilling me

As you run your finger down the page
To understand your fear of drakes
Swimming, waddling or in flight

Sometimes when you're scared to look it up
Anatidaephobia
The fear waterfowl's watching you

Fear of the duck, fear of the duck
I have a constant fear a waterfowl is near
Fear of the duck, fear of the duck
I have a phobia there's one surveilling me

Have you ever heard a quack echo?
Are ducks real? Do dolphins know?
I wish I was a pipistrelle

Now I must quicken up the pace
I have to fly now, like a train
The Mallard's all I can think of

Fear of the duck, fear of the duck
I have a constant fear a waterfowl is near
Fear of the duck, fear of the duck
I have a phobia there's one surveilling me

Fear of the duck, fear of the duck
Fear of the duck, fear of the duck
Fear of the duck, fear of the duck
Fear of the duck, fear of the duck

Watching horror films is no problem
Live/animated/CGI
Not if it's Disney's Donald Duck

All waterfowl leave me in pain
It makes me soil the porcelain
There's no relief - look, Toilet Duck!

Fear of the duck, fear of the duck
I have a constant fear a waterfowl is near
Fear of the duck, fear of the duck
I have a phobia there's one surveilling me

Fear of the duck, fear of the duck
I have a constant fear a waterfowl is near
Fear of the duck, fear of the duck
I have a phobia there's one surveilling me

When I'm walking on my own
I fear I'm never just alone

(1.2.20) Since 2018, the UK music buying public have made their Xmas #1 a 5th consecutive parody (now a record, surpassing the Beatles). Often, a new artist can announce their arrival with a particularly good cover, made uniquely their own. I'm no singer nor musician, so if you can perform this (or any of mine), please send me a version & lots of royalties!

Just out of curiosity, is Duc4AmIRight’s (Captain Copy/Paste) username named after a duck? Also I want a clarification of the name, Van S A’Parody. Who are you trying to not offend, and why are you not one of “them”? No one on this forum understands that, so I want clarification from both of you. At least George&GermaineBriantFan, who just recently retired, was obvious with his username.
