The Lyrics
I loved to work at Boston U.
With germs that can attack
Until one day, to my dismay,
My air-pack sprung a crack
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Tu-la-reee---e-mia-
-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
My air-pack sprung a crack
I love to juggle all the bugs
That could lay waste to man
No vaccine, drugs, or feral pugs,
Could stand what's in my hands
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Tu-la-reee---e-mia-
-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
No feral pugs could stand
Overhead the crop-dusters
Could spray these bugs of death
And then Bill Murray's Ghost-Busters
Could clean-up what was left
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Tu-la-reee---e-mia-
-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Bill Murray's dog-like breath
Oh may I go a-blundering
In B.U.'s pressured labs
'Til germ-bombs go a-thundering
And we're all under slabs
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Tu-la-reee---e-mia-
-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
My air-pack sprung a crack!
With germs that can attack
Until one day, to my dismay,
My air-pack sprung a crack
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Tu-la-reee---e-mia-
-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
My air-pack sprung a crack
I love to juggle all the bugs
That could lay waste to man
No vaccine, drugs, or feral pugs,
Could stand what's in my hands
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Tu-la-reee---e-mia-
-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
No feral pugs could stand
Overhead the crop-dusters
Could spray these bugs of death
And then Bill Murray's Ghost-Busters
Could clean-up what was left
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Tu-la-reee---e-mia-
-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Bill Murray's dog-like breath
Oh may I go a-blundering
In B.U.'s pressured labs
'Til germ-bombs go a-thundering
And we're all under slabs
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Tu-la-reee---e-mia-
-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
My air-pack sprung a crack!

As a B.U. alumnus, I'm donating 555 to this hilarious parody.
Thanks, JB. The fun thing about being "on sabbatical" is that if inspiration strikes, you can go with it, if and when you feel like it!
As you've seen, I am no longer doing my former "post-several-parodies-every-week" thing ... however, that doesn't mean I won't post a parody when a fun idea comes along.

Johnny, I'm Playing Ed Norton In The Honeymooners!
I can't believe no one has said this, but...that was really catchy. 555
Jessy, Jeff, Tim, Alvin, Pat, Kristof --- thanks very much!
Jessy --- Hey, that sounds like fun! Break a leg, Ed!

DKTOS- but I am still voting and commenting ahead of time for the classified thingys for the contest. lmao
[AmiRight Classifieds] Hee (cough) hee. And extra points for "feral pugs".
(Help Wanted) Clever cough/uh/cough/cough writing. (no, I mean it!)
(Classifieds) I read the news story in the link - I noticed the date was Jan 19 2005, the same day you posted this. Quick jump on this. Level 5 quarantine won't hold this one back!
(classifieds) - typical flawless pacing JD, and that Bill Murray Ghostbusters bit was brilliant - 555
Wunderschön (I know the OS in German, as it happens)... I missed this first time around: I've been thinking about this song for a while, but haven't had anything obvious to do with it. Nice one, JD :-)
(Classifieds) Great parody, it was a cough, cough... Gas!
Classifieds: Something about this is bugging me =) Well done!
Not much,I,d prefer if you,d put the REAL lyrics of that wunderbarische Lied on your website and leave out the stupid BULLSHIT, That,s my comment.
Where are you going besides No Where and getting hopelessly lost?
Biden's blundering everything and he trips a lot
