Parody Song Title:
"(I Spent Just a) Bit More Than He'd Planned"
Parody Written by:
Arwen
The Lyrics
Perhaps a sequel to "Visa's Preferred"
Diamond rings
I got plenty
Fancy things
One too many
My budget's a fright
Went shopping tonight
I spent just a bit more than he'd planned
He will say
That I'm absurd
Just to pay
For a rare bird
I know I was wrong
My list was too long
I spent just a bit more than he'd planned
No, I didn't need a crystal snowman
But I couldn't seem to put him down
I'll say, "Are you angry?"
He'll say, "ARWEN!
Go get a job to pay my Visa down!"
Bought a new
Washer/Dryer
And a nice
Kitchen fryer
Admit that I paid
For some Ginsu blades
I spent just a bit more than he'd planned
I guess I thought we had cash to blow, man
But he's looking at me with a frown
Got him a CD by Lindsay Lohan
To play while I try on my Dior gown
Goes to show
I'm a villain
But you know
He'll be chillin'
His pride I can sway
Pout to get my way
He'll know he's lucky to be my man
Though I spent a bit more than he'd planned
I got plenty
Fancy things
One too many
My budget's a fright
Went shopping tonight
I spent just a bit more than he'd planned
He will say
That I'm absurd
Just to pay
For a rare bird
I know I was wrong
My list was too long
I spent just a bit more than he'd planned
No, I didn't need a crystal snowman
But I couldn't seem to put him down
I'll say, "Are you angry?"
He'll say, "ARWEN!
Go get a job to pay my Visa down!"

Very nice. Forgive me if I don't show this one to my wife till AFTER Christmas! =)
Laughing at this wonderful parody.
Thanks, gentlemen!
I sympathise after I looked at how much we'd spent on Christmas presents!
I am not kidding when I tell you that my fiance and I had a VERY similar conversation last night. I told him he'd regret giving me a Master Card, but did he listen? Noooo. So I say it's his fault. Fabulous job!!
Is that your fiance or your finance? =)
Arwen, nicely done.
Top shelf parody...Excellent word choices, rhymes, and all..555
I've spent over a week trying to come up with a Christmas parody to a Christmas tune, and.. bupkus. Yet here you've done it. Masterfully. Bastard.
Pickle...I think it might not have been such a big deal if the money had been spent on present for other people...but a girl's gotta be good to herself, too, right?? Thanks!
Ash...Do you want me to give him a call? In arguments, everything is his fault. I could cross stitch it onto a pillow, too...if that would help. =)
Jeff...hee hee!
Tim...nicely commented, thanks!
AFW...please don't put it on the top shelf! I won't be able to reach it!!

Leo...I will award you three 5s...all for using the word bupkus! I love you!! Bastard.

Good thing you bought that new doghouse, Arwen.
LOL to the detail Arwen - your specialty (and LOL to Steven's comment) - guess you can't thank me though, in these times of comment embargo
(sigh) ah well.................

Hee, Steven...thanks!!
Nice one, Arwen. I didn't know just how much of a villain you were until today.

LOL, 2nz!! I'll admit...I'm a handful...only the strongest men (or the weakest, depending on how you look at it) can survive me...; )
You really ARE very high maintenance, aren't you? :-) 555
He plans for your spending????? Does he not understand the concept of a blank cheque?
As usual, your song cracked me up :-)

Kristof, what's that thing called that's UNDER a statement again?
Kristof...=) But don't pretend you didn't already know that, darling!

Some good lines, but what about rhyming? Plenty and many don't rhyme, nor do snowman and Arwen. Couldn't you have made it snowmen?
You're clearly not singing it with a Rivendellian accent, Millard. Nice try though...
Artistic license, women's intuition, call it what you like. Plenty and many are close enough to work if you sing it.
And that, my friends, is why Jeff Reuben can always count on me to have his back...so don't mess with him...
Hey Millard...check this out:

In other words...I'm never wrong.

To that kind of behaviour I just put my foot down and say NO! (But I'll say yes to this parody).
Thanks, K1!
Arwen, thank you for referring me to rhymezone.com. I will not argue with that resource, so I retract my criticism of plenty/many. What about snowman/Arwen?
That's where my accent comes in...
