The Lyrics
Decided to post one of my earliest efforts. It's no masterpiece, but it could have been worse... (and at least it gets me one step closer to 25 submissions!)
Well, I've been trying to get slim
And so, I've worked out at the gym
When I come home, my shirt really smells
Mom says it stinks as bad as hades
Hello, hello, hello, hello (x2)
Mom says, "You smell like rotten cheese
Lemme go get the Febre-eze!"
I mean, my shirt really does smell
Lemme tell ya, boy, you can tell
It's a pungent kind of odor
Anytime I lift my shoulder
Yeah!
Yeah . . . . yow
I thought it was just a bunch of bull
When they told me my pits were lethal
I thought it was a big joke until
The cops told me somebody got killed
Oh no, oh no, oh no, how gross (x2)
My pits knock 'em dead real quick now
They would make you really sick now!
They had Mensa students work on
Industrial strength colo-ogne
Smelling this bad's such a cho-ore
I can't take it anymo-ore
Yeah!
Wow . . . . whoa
They say the doctors aren't really sure
That they will ever find me a cure
Well, can't we put this whole thing behind?
Oh, well, whatever, nevermind
Who knows, who knows, who knows, who knows? (x2)
When I walk in, Mom says "Oh, geez!
Lemme go get the Febre-eze"
I mean, my shirt really does smell
When I work out, boy, you can tell
People pelt me with tomaters
Well, I guess I'll smell ya later
Smell ya later! (x9)
And so, I've worked out at the gym
When I come home, my shirt really smells
Mom says it stinks as bad as hades
Hello, hello, hello, hello (x2)
Mom says, "You smell like rotten cheese
Lemme go get the Febre-eze!"
I mean, my shirt really does smell
Lemme tell ya, boy, you can tell
It's a pungent kind of odor
Anytime I lift my shoulder
Yeah!
Yeah . . . . yow
I thought it was just a bunch of bull
When they told me my pits were lethal
I thought it was a big joke until
The cops told me somebody got killed
Oh no, oh no, oh no, how gross (x2)
My pits knock 'em dead real quick now
They would make you really sick now!
They had Mensa students work on
Industrial strength colo-ogne
Smelling this bad's such a cho-ore
I can't take it anymo-ore
Yeah!
Wow . . . . whoa
They say the doctors aren't really sure
That they will ever find me a cure
Well, can't we put this whole thing behind?
Oh, well, whatever, nevermind
Who knows, who knows, who knows, who knows? (x2)
When I walk in, Mom says "Oh, geez!
Lemme go get the Febre-eze"
I mean, my shirt really does smell
When I work out, boy, you can tell
People pelt me with tomaters
Well, I guess I'll smell ya later
Smell ya later! (x9)

Well this stunk
Don't be so rude.
i dont think it "stunk" i think if you just spaced some words out and fit them in sequence a little bit better it would have been good but its got all the symptoms of a comey song.
Very good effort. 5's
Thanks for your feedback, everyone!
Ausfahrt: My turtleneck? I agree.

Jonathan, whoa, Dude! ;) .. only tip: "2x" is as lazy as, a, well, turtle... use your creativity and come up with original subs, even if the OS repeats. Gives readers that many more laughs, too. Cheers.
That's a situation coming from a typical teenager who would have poor hygiene! Great work, hilarious, Jonathan! Laundering 555 teen shirts for this one!
Thanks, TT and CMM!
Turtleneck Tommy: Like I said, this was from when I was just starting out. Decided to submit it in its original form without editing (save for adding "oh no/how gross") because I didn't feel it needed a major overhaul. However, I submitted a Soundgarden parody last night that does include several subs for one repeating line. Would be interested in your feedback on that submission.

Well, if a certain Admin had done an update today.... (wink) ... will try to remember to check it out on Friday, though DK Soundgarden. (Link to OS lyrics helps readers in that situation.)
When it finally does get posted... at the top of the page, there's a link to the original song. Thanx again for your comments.
that smell
