The Lyrics

I have this knack for coming up with parodies that no one else would even think of, I think this is one of them.
Verse 1:
Christmas decorations
Under a wreath that's green
We had a big celebration
If you know what I mean
All the lessons that it taught me
All the things it put me through

I saw the definition of perfection
[Won't need another role-model again]
You don't want to know what I'm thinking that rhymes with perfection!
[Won't need another role-model again]

Chorus:
I met a guy named Ray
I saw him/He said hi
He was such a goof
He was a funny guy
He seemed to know all the answers
On Jeopardy
Who could ask for more?
He's who I want to be

Verse 2:
Paper bags with smiley faces
The party was underway
It was quite a celebration
And Linkin Park started to play
Too bad I didn't get any action
But I never do anyway

He may have a strange complexion
[Won't need another role-model again]
And it caused me some perplextion
[Won't need another role-model again]

(Chorus)

Bridge:
I met a guy named Ray
He was nice and he said HI!!
[I met a guy named Ray!/Met a guy named Ray!]
[I met a guy named Ray!/Met a guy named Ray!]
I met a guy named Ray
He was a funny GUY!!
[I met a guy named Ray!/Met a guy named Ray!]
[I met a guy named Ray!/Met a guy named Ray!]
I met a guy named Ray
He's who I want to BE!
[I met a guy named Ray!/Met a guy named Ray!]
BE!!
[I met a guy named Ray!/Met a guy named Ray!]
BE!!!
[I met a guy named Ray!/Met a guy named Ray!]
BEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
[I met a guy named Ray!/Met a guy named Ray!]

(Chorus)

This is probably the second most liked Winkin Shark song, so liked, in fact, that I wrote a "sequel" for Reallyboreda: "He's Ray!". I suppose the lyrical pacing is quite good, although I'm suprised that "You don't wanna know what I'm thinking that rhymes with perfection!" didn't dock my pacing rating down to 4. Of course, maybe you're one of the few, the proud to have went to my website and actually listened to the song to understand the pacing. In that case-GOOD FOR YOU! lol And once again, I appreciate actual comments, even if the rating is straight 5s. Tell me what you liked, didn't like, etc. It'll help me if "Projekt Winkin Shark Continuation" manages to succede, or if I just go "all lyrics" for the rest of Winkin Shark, because I'm out of material to record with (meaning the midis I've used for all my songs).
