The Lyrics

Wouldn't it be funny if someone else has already done this song? No offense intended to anyone, but you know how it is when you get an idea and just HAVE to click that submit button.
As I was checking
The new submissions
I saw before me
A few additions
I barely read them
Then started bitchin'
Hey!
That song was made here first by me

That song is my song
It is not your song
Mine is a wry song
Yours is a poor song
You don't like my song
I'm fraid that you're wrong
That song's created first by me

I get ideas
I like to bunch 'em
It's hard to check them
With no search function
But they're my songs now
You best not touch 'em
Them songs were made here first by me

That song is my song
You done the same song
My supa-fly song
Will beat your lame song
Least give me credit
(don't git my name wrong)
That song's created first by me

Actually, the only songs I consider to be all mine are not even on this site. And copyright law says no one can own a title.

Not long ago, some DB actually took one of my posts verbatim and passed it off as his/her own a few days after I first posted it.

Ohhh.... this gives me an idea for tomorrow! Thanks for doing the hard part for me! Heh heh heh!!! (Just kidding, of course... I'll wait a few weeks before slapping my name on this and resubmitting it. *evil grin*)

Love this, btw! Love it, love it, love it.

This is fabulous! I can't believe how uptight people get about "their" songs. Do they forget that they're writing a parody of what someone else wrote in the first place? Seriously...

I have to agree that this was awesome! I have major issues with folks who get so cranky over stuff like this...let's think about what's really important, people! 5s...

Great take off....and rhythms right along with the original..I'm kinda new at this site...but I can see where such could occur.
