The Lyrics

Teri took a dive
After "Lois and Clark"
Went from raisin' Cain
To jumpin' the shark
She did "Seinfeld" once or twice
Must have been on crack
When she joined Howie Long
In ads for Radio Shack
(Ugh)

Where'd "Sex and
The City" go?
We need another
Wholesome show

Desperate lives - desperate drives - of housewives
She moved - to Wisteria Lane
Desperate guys - fantasize - 'bout housewives
She moved - to Wisteria Lane

Nicolette disrobed
In the Eagles locker room
Scored some Janet Jackson buzz
Though censors fume
There's ratings - to strut
Awards out - the butt
Guess it's clear we all relate
To the neighborhood slut

On your knees, bitch!

& Eva yeah
She drives me wild
She gets her lawn mowed by a - chiiiiild

Desperate minds - desperate kinds - of housewives
They live - on Wisteria Lane
Desperate lies - desperate thighs - of housewives
They live - on Wisteria Lane
Feast my eyes - get my rise - from "Housewives"
Sleep all day, waste Sunday nights (whoa)

[Lurid instrumental]

One street's got fires
Murders and drugs
Fatal affairs
S & M moms
Wilder than you - tah
Dude if I had those neighbors
I'd never leeeave town!

Desperate lives - desperate drives - of housewives
We live - for Wisteria Lane
Desperate guys - fantasize - 'bout housewives
Let's move - to Wisteria Lane!
(etc.)

Brilliant line: "Went from raisin' Cain..." My wife is hooked on this show. I only watch it because she does. Really. Please believe me!

Hey, I DO know what the hell this parody is about. Great title, and it got better from there. Outstanding; about time you started putting that twisted, brilliant mind to use for once. Heh heh.

"Abbrev. Police"! I like that! I'm amazed that the word "abbreviation" (and all forms of it) itself gets abbreviated sometimes.

what Jeff said, except it's me who's hooked on the show, not my wife - it's new here so looking forward to the changing-room scene - and ditto about Eva! - and always a fan of Teri - esp. in the Seinfeld sauna - also the show lucked in to Sex and The City finishing, with all those women's bonding nights having nothing left to bond over - just so much to discuss! - we should start a thread - btw brilliant parody spaff, and brilliant matching to the OS - 555

I have yet to watch the show, Spaffer...I kind of feel like I'd be cheating on the memory of Sex and the City, which I am still mourning...; )...but this is pretty freaking hilarious...=) Nice work!

Thanx, scholar rhodes & Jeffaroo (yeah right) & Laudanum & Peterchyd (x3) & C4P (you forgot "angelic") & 2Eagle & Abbrev Fuzz (heh heh) & Jackie & haha (heh heh) & Stuartise & Sis Evenstar.

It's clear that I need to provide some footnotes on this one, so I'll put something up on the messageboard. (You get functional links over there.)

Haven't seen a single episode, but now I know everything important about the show. :-)
Michael Pacholek - February 23, 2005 - Report this comment
I'm still thinking that Kim Cattrall (Valeris in ST6) set a standard for sexy Vulcans with issues that Jolene Blalock (T'Pol on Enterprise) will never reach -- unless you want to go back to Arlene Martel (T'Pring in "Amok Time" from the original series). Uh, where was I? Oh yeah: This was wis-terical!
Serafina - February 23, 2005 - Report this comment
I liked the parody, even though I haven't really watched the show very much. I've only seen two or three episodes. Anyway... 5-5-5. :)
Melhi - February 23, 2005 - Report this comment
Glad you explained the show on the board Spaff. In addition to "getting" your parody a little better than I would have, I've also added the show to my "Must-not-see-TV" list under the heading "Shows I'd rather coat myself in K.C. ****MASTERPIECE**** barbeque sauce and sit on an anthill than watch."



You didn't say HOW we had to use the word, just that we had to use it. Heh heh heh.

P.S. Good work, as always.

Hoorah! Loved it! 'She gets her lawn mowed by a chiiiiild' was glorious. Dig up some 5s.

Thanx, Rex & Serafina & Adam & Ralphing Luke!
Melhi: Nice. Not only did you say "masterpiece," you also said "heh heh heh." So you get bonus points.
Kristof: Good luck with that T.P. problem. I feel your pain. (Not literally.)
Michaelopedia: Did you write that comment in Klingon? Here's what it sounded like to me: "Blah Kim Cattrall blah sexy blah blah blah wis-terical." But it sounded like a compliment, so thank you. Live long and perspire.

Thanx, Aggro. Historical history is my favorite kind.
