Submitted By: Robert D. Arndt Jr.
Smashbox 20
Matchbox 20 combined with Smash Mouth
Might work, since both bands began to climb the charts in 1997, and the first syllables in the respective names sound somewhat similar. One song they could do if they performed together: "Walkin' On The Sun at 3 A.M."

Song Parody Fragments:

"All Star"
Better Lyrics:
Somebody once told me the world was macaroni so I took a bite out of a tree,

It tasted kind of funny so I spat it at a bunny in the bunny start cursing at me.
Original Lyrics:
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me

I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed

She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb

In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
Submitted by: Geneviève Bell
"All Star"
Better Lyrics:
Somebody once told me the world was just a phony
so I took a bite out of a tree
It tasted really funny so I spat it at a bunny and the bunny spat it right back at me
Original Lyrics:
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
Submitted by: Wildheart
"All Star"
Better Lyrics:
Somebody once told me the world was macaroni

So I told them, no, it's nacho cheese

So I took a giant chip and I stuck it in the dip, and I threw it right at their forehead.

Ten minutes later, he was Darth Vader, and he threw his lightsaber at me.

But it missed by a meter and it hit Justin Bieber
Original Lyrics:
Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb

The Funny Lyrics:
For you I'd take off my shoes and my socks, baby
And watch you laugh as I walked across burnin' rocks
Why They're Funny:
it makes no sense, but it's still kind of funny.
Submitted by: oddxsocks
"She Turns Me On"
The Funny Lyrics:
Jackie O. did she know
Why They're Funny:
This is one of the dumbest songs I've ever heard, but that line cracks me up. The 'O' is held out for too long to make it sound like an initial, which it really is supposed to be.

Repetitive Song Lyrics:

"Flo"
The Repetitive Lyrics:
Florence, can you hear me?
Can you hear me, Flo?
Why They're Repetitive:
I love this song, but saying the same line eight times in a 2:12 song is a bit much.
Submitted by: Lieselette
"The Fonz"
The Repetitive Lyrics:
But you're the Fonz
Why They're Repetitive:
I got bored and counted how many times 'but you're the Fonz' was said one day...thirty four times in all. I would like to think that most people understand the concept of the line 'but you're the Fonz' the first or second time, but hey, one can never be to sure...

Nonsensical Song Lyrics:

Submitted by: David
"All Star"
The Nonsensical Lyrics:
Hey now you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid.
Why They're Nonsensical:
Well, duh, that's the whole idea of being a rockstar. If you don't put on a concert then nobody gets paid. In other words, thank you captain obvious!

Misrhymed Song Lyrics:

"Allstar"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
My world's on fire, how about yours?
That's the way I like it and I never get bored.
Why They're Misrhymed:
even though 'yours' and 'bored' sound similar, they still don't rhyme.
Submitted by: Carrie
"All Star"
The Misrhymed Lyrics:
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
Why They're Misrhymed:
I admit that 'differ' is a tough word to rhyme, but this is still pretty sad.
Submitted by: Da Phoenix

Dated Song Lyrics:

"Walkin' on the Sun"
The Dated Lyrics:
Twenty-five years ago they spoke out and they broke out
Of recession and oppression and together they toked...
Why They're Dated:
This song was released in 1997. '25 years ago' refers to 1972. When this song is played 25 years from now, the reference will be inaccurate.
