The Lyrics
Urban America seems to be getting worse by the day. CAUTION: This is probably my most crass and insensitive parody yet, so either turn back or enjoy.
"Boulevard of Unheard Screams"
I walked a seedy road
The only one with its own death toll
Don't know where it goes
'Cause you'll never leave if you walk alone
I walked this scary street
On the Boulevard of Unheard Screams
Where the killers creep
and I got shot and stabbed 'cause I walked alone
I walked alone
I walked alone
I walked alone
I walked a...(*gunshot*)
My stalker only likes to walk behind me
The crackheads are the only ones not aiming
Someday I hope that cops will find my body
From when I walked alone
Aaaah!, Aaaah!, Aaaah!, Aaaaaah!,
Aaaah!, Aaaah!, Aaaah!
I must have crossed a line
That divides the gangsters in my town
On the sidewalk line
Of the last place where I walked alone
See my chalk outline
With lots of bullet holes and stabbing wounds
Got no vital signs
I knew I was dead when I walked alone
I walked alone
I walked alone
I walked alone
I walked a...(*gunshot*)
The dealer only likes to walk up to me
The gangsters are the only ones I can't see
Someday I hope that cops will find my body
From when I walked alone
Aaaah!, Aaaah!, Aaaah!, Aaaaaah!,
Aaaah!, Aaaah!, Aaaah!
I walked alone
I walked a...(*gunshot*)
I walked this scary street
On the Boulevard of Unheard Screams
Where the killers creep
and I got shot and stabbed 'cause I walked a...(*gunshot*)
The muggers are the ones who always find me
Pickpockets, the only ones that don't harm me
Someday I hope that cops will find my body
From when I walked alone...
(*multiple gunshots*)
(*glass breaking*)
(*police sirens*)
I walked a seedy road
The only one with its own death toll
Don't know where it goes
'Cause you'll never leave if you walk alone
I walked this scary street
On the Boulevard of Unheard Screams
Where the killers creep
and I got shot and stabbed 'cause I walked alone
I walked alone
I walked alone
I walked alone
I walked a...(*gunshot*)
My stalker only likes to walk behind me
The crackheads are the only ones not aiming
Someday I hope that cops will find my body
From when I walked alone
Aaaah!, Aaaah!, Aaaah!, Aaaaaah!,
Aaaah!, Aaaah!, Aaaah!
I must have crossed a line
That divides the gangsters in my town
On the sidewalk line
Of the last place where I walked alone
See my chalk outline
With lots of bullet holes and stabbing wounds
Got no vital signs
I knew I was dead when I walked alone
I walked alone
I walked alone
I walked alone

The gangsters are the only ones I can't see
Someday I hope that cops will find my body

Not necessarily funny, but well written.
This was a little too insensitive - what did your parents ever do to you to make you write something as sad as this?
Hello everyone and thanks for reading this. Jeff and Mooshka- I meant for this to be kind of heavy and it's not due to some childhood trauma.
I'll be writing some lighter stuff soon.
Not Bad! I Wok Alone still rules as the best parody of this song. :)
Cool...my comment wasn't meant to be criticism. It was well written, but not fall off my chair laughing well written =) I took it for what it was.
well...it describes my neighbourhood, but it's kinda' funny...gr8 sound fx
I apologize for the earlier comment referencing my parody. I know what it's like to do a song that's already been done and have others reference it on your parody.
Definitely heavier than most parodies. And definitely well-written, Scathe.

(ABC-2005) DKTOS, but a good read.
(ABC) Heavy, but that's not a bad thing. Nice job!
Really? I found it darkly hilarious, like the rhyme in 'See my chalk outline/ With lots of bullet holes and stabbing wounds/ Got no vital signs'. Nice concept. 444
(ABC05) Yeah it wasn't THAT bad, it could have been a lot worse. A good exercise in urban paranoia. I've been there, and still act that way. I gave it 544.
(ABC) The conecpt was really good, I enjoyed it.
(ABC) You really oughtta find a house in the suburbs....545
(ABC-B) I've explored the urban darker side in some of my parodies and I can appreciate your effort here Scathe even though I seem to be DKTOS on this song. I understand where you are coming from on this one. Well done as it reads from a DKTOS opinion.
(ABC-05) the pickpockets are the only one's who get off lightly here, Scathe - very accomplished writing - 555
(aBc) I actually did find this very funny -- but because of what I attached it to. I've been playing an online computer game, called City of Heroes (yeah, me, who normally doesn't like gaming, at all) and the whole time I was reading this I couldn't help thinkiing this would make a perfect theme song for my character... in that context, it was wonderfully hilarious!
(ABC) Heavy duty indeed.
DKTOS, so I'm going with the majority on pacing - sharp and well-written.
(ABC) Well written, see above
woa, that was soooo insensetive!.......but so totally awesome at the same time, dude!!!!
