| Parody Song Title: | "Puttin' on the Glitz" |
| Parody Written by: | John A. Barry |
Didn't look too well-to-do
Garbed in parka, seal muumuu.
Up there in the frosty air,
Shootin' wolves and moose and bear.
Squelch redneck, meth-nest squalors--
Spend 1-2-5 K dollars.
There's no K-Mart buys. . .
Nieman-Marcus supplies.
Yes, she was blue,
The hue in snow, wearin' snow shoes,
Ninety below. Now fashion, it's
Puttin' on the glitz.
Skim the ice off of the gray coat;
Must look nice: don't worry, they tote
Up the chits.
Puttin' on the glitz.
Dressed up with some many-dollars couture.
This the hockey-mom look? I ain't too sure.
Your corps? Too poor.
They've no sticker shock the fellers,
Dress this chick; bulged pocket-swellers
Ain't their dicks.
Spend a million bits.
Get her up in Versace and Prada.
Is there any spending limit? Nada.
Credit card-a.
Her "constituents" are shopping
Where price tags ain't thousands topping--
Hey, tough shitz!
Puttin' on the glitz.
Garbed in parka, seal muumuu.
Up there in the frosty air,
Shootin' wolves and moose and bear.
Squelch redneck, meth-nest squalors--
Spend 1-2-5 K dollars.
There's no K-Mart buys. . .
Nieman-Marcus supplies.
Yes, she was blue,
The hue in snow, wearin' snow shoes,
Ninety below. Now fashion, it's
Puttin' on the glitz.
Skim the ice off of the gray coat;
Must look nice: don't worry, they tote
Up the chits.
Puttin' on the glitz.
Dressed up with some many-dollars couture.

Sums it up nicely
Thanks, all.
Ritzy parody JB! Funny hockey mum line :)
I could use some glitz myself! I love the OS, especially Taco's version. This could also be a theme song for the fashion police! I'm with Peregrin, love the "hockey mom" line! Yep, I am now picturing supermodels walking down the runway with that song! Hail to all fashionistas everywhere! Fashion With A Passion! Keep it up, JB!
Bravo! Now you can continue the series with Mark Spitz and Fritz Mondale!
