Song Parodies -> Fragments -> Boz Scaggs
These are short parody lyrics set to the lyrics of songs by Boz Scaggs.
Boz Scaggs
Boz Scaggs', "Lido Shuffle"
Better Lyrics:
Daddy missed the boat that day he left the house
But that was all he missed
And he ain't comin' back
I got the inspiration for these lyrics when the song was popular way back when. I thought the pronoun "he" in the original lyrics referred to my father, who committed suicide. I thought the line "And he ain't comin' back" meant that my father was never coming back home, but that was just wishful thinking on my part.
But that was all he missed
And he ain't comin' back

Original Lyrics:
Lido missed the boat that day he left the shack
But that was all he missed
And he ain't comin' back
But that was all he missed
And he ain't comin' back
