The Lyrics
The last pigeon song will be up later, gonna try to work on "In The Wall"
Pigeons roasting on an open fire
Bad stench nipping at our nose
Helpless cooings being sung in ire
And we're freezing by our toes
Everybody wants a turkey and it's getting old
Want to bask in season light
Orange dots on their eyes all aglow
Will find it nice to eat tonight
We'd love some pandas by the way
Some loaded bags of dogs and kitties on their way
And every parent's child is gonna cry
Angrily ask us for those reasons and why
So I'm offering some pigeon treat
To kids from 1982
Although they got ticked many times, many ways,
A very painful Christmas to you
Bad stench nipping at our nose
Helpless cooings being sung in ire
And we're freezing by our toes
Everybody wants a turkey and it's getting old
Want to bask in season light
Orange dots on their eyes all aglow
Will find it nice to eat tonight
We'd love some pandas by the way
Some loaded bags of dogs and kitties on their way
And every parent's child is gonna cry
Angrily ask us for those reasons and why
So I'm offering some pigeon treat
To kids from 1982
Although they got ticked many times, many ways,
A very painful Christmas to you
Feel free to overreact just like before, I'll go and nape some apes because they ate my steak (Some should get this reference).

Branching out in your diet I see. ;D
It has given me an idea for a parody! It is called "Max Power Roasting On An Open Fire!"
Nah scrub that idea, I thing the fumes would be too much...
I don't care, go for it.
Ok I will, but I wll add some seasoning and some barbecue sauce as well. Now do a parody 'Kittens Roasting On An Open Fire'
An improvement over your last stab at this OS, which was about roasting puppies. At least most people don't feel the same way about pigeons as they do about dogs. As for the "Max Power Roasting On An Open Fire" parody, Chucky would likely never approve it. 4-5-5.
My brains questioning this odd desire? All this roasting why who knows?
Comedy Central does it all the time, if they can do it to Shatner then why not? :)
The great Tom Lehrer once sang about poisoning pigeons in the park. Years ago, in Kansas City, Kansas the city's animal control officer reported that there was no longer a stray dog problem on South Mill Street. He told the reporter he couldn't figure out why. South Mill was a housing project where a lot of newly arrived Hmong immigrants were settled.
I don't mind a good roast as long as Carrot Top doesn't show up.
Hiya Max, long time no see here. An unusual point of view, as always from you.
Thanks, yeah I know it's been a while. College courses isn't exactly kind to me so that tells you something. I still have plans to work on my NSYNC parody but I'll need to put the idea to use. I'm still going to try to reach 400 parodies by the end of the year.
(ABC) A good selection from your catalog Max. It's a strange that people on this site are crazy about eating strange types of birds. Maybe I should do a parody about eating ostriches or kiwis. LOL! Short, but sweet. Good work.
Hi. I've actually eaten ostrich meat - as a jerky stick and as a "hot dog". It's tasty and valued for its nutritional leanness. I've also eaten a quail sandwich, too. Very chickeny in flavor. Good stuff. You should try it. Painless Christmas to you.
(Ages) So you're eating animals that people usually don't because...why? I really don't see any humour in this, it's just "I'm roasting pigeons because...derpty doo". Clearly this is not my cup of tea.
I think this is really funny. Poking fun at the poetic descriptions of the OS and the thought of roasting pigeons for Christmas seems funny to me (or maybe I'm overthinking it haha)...either way, nice work!
This one was one of your better ones Max. I actually some reference to what was going on in this parody which unusual especially of your work.
(ABC) What? Roasting pigeons for Christmas isn't a normal thing? LOL JK! Good job Max!
