mellon-collie...lol...5s

Son of a bitch..... lol.... 5's

Doggone funny!

I don't think he's gonna come out from under the bed (I wouldn't).... TMGLTM, extra points for varying the chorus internally, and the SOB line was so good that it overshadows the fact that it didn't quite scan.... Five... gimme five... C'mon, boy, gimme five.... You can do it... c'mon dog, gimme damn five already... Stupid mutt!

Darn It Rex you took the words right out of my mouth! good work 544

Take him to a good groomer and an obedience school.

Better in a Good Company than So Dog-Gone Lonesome. Fivers.

As an experienced K9 parodist, I gotta say...this was Wooftastic! 555

Scruffy parody. I'll give you Cycle 5s to take care of the mutt!

Son of a bitch! LOL!

Re: continuing discussion of reliable OS lyrics, lemme throw out sumpin' that I threw out last year... any way that this site could let you post the actual OS lyrics that you used, maybe in a little window next to your parody?... Would help readers who DKTOS... and if a parody didn't pace properly to the version of OS that IK, but the author showed the version used and it paced properly to that one, I'd 5 them on pace.

Here's some 5s with some Scooby Snacks.

555 for the mellon collie puppy. *PUN*

That ending. Five ouches...

That's a hee hee of a parody, Jack. 5's

This is a test

I'm gonna sing this to my dogs! What would life be without dogs? Ah, give me a dog and a good parody...and I'm happy!

What fun; my favorite line is "I called the dog and he...won't come" because of the cute "paws" as you wait for him to obey. If my kitty were still here he'd be laughing too, but alas--- he's gone--- and my neighbor still has his two stoopid dogs. 3 sets of 5 claws up, I'd give ya more if i could!

Re: OS lyrics: Agree with what you said at "Goose Her". Posting OS on 00s is a great idea. I can't ask everyone to do this just 'cuz I DK most of the last 30 years' music, but it does help this reptile/fossil, as does MIDI or mp3. (Your Van Halen would have been meaningless to me without it.)

Before taking up ChuckyG's disc space and bandwidth, though, do you have any idea how many other people actually consult such things?

The above idea sounds good, I would probably use it at least sometimes. It might get me to vote on more songs. It's really nice when someone takes the time to look up the OS when they don't know it and sometimes you only remember parts of it. Not that anyone was asking me, but maybe you were asking for random comments.

Thanks go out to Alvin, Matthias, Rex, TT, Jonathan, 2Eagle, Susanna, Kristof, Yoidy, PMS, Jack W, Step-chan, Merry, Pat, Mr. Spear and jango for all the woof-terful comments.

Tommy Turtle: As far as I know, I am the first (and only) to post "completed lyrics" on inthe00s.com and then link them through the parody. That page does have nearly 2000 hits, but it's hard to say how many of them came from people looking at my Metallica parody album. The only reason I did it for that project was I knew there would be a 100% DKTOS factor (i.e., no one would know any of the songs I was parodying), and even though I had MIDIs for all of the songs as well, they were of such poor quality to be nearly useless. In the end, all that extra work might have garnered me perhaps 5 votes more (over 11 songs) than I would have gotten with no links at all.

As for sucking up ChuckyG's bandwidth, yeah, providing lyrics takes up a little, but there are numerous threads in the forum over 100 pages long (some over 1000), so one more small thread isn't really going to do much resource-wise.

PS to TT: It's ironic that with all the talk I do about how crappy lyrics sites generally are that the second site I went to before making this parody was not only 100% complete, but formatted as perfectly as I could ever hope: the "..." between lines was actually in the site's lyrics, so I kept it, though I probably would have used a hyphen and spaces (" - ") had it not been done so.

Ah yes, another tribute to the "Big Slobbers." I give this a five. That's 35 in dog points.

A big round of appaws. 555

I'm with TT- I don't know any of the newer songs...usually avoid reading their parodies...ya gotta hear the OS to appreciate the parody, no matter how good or how fuunny it may be.

Re: Web OS lyrics: Conclusion seems to be that for most parodies, if there's a halfway-decent OS on the web, a link to it would suffice, but not for some, as with your Metallica project. I have a monster project in mind where posting one's own OS version at 00s sounds like a great idea. Will use 00s (hey, "use 00s" rhymes!) as needed.

Re: Your suggested spin-off of "Goose Her On The Sly In Thigh Mound": Done. Fantastic idea. (The spin-off gave me yet another idea, which posted with it.) Thanks.

Chuck A. Spear: Glad I'm not the only fossil here :)

LOL - great sub for the title, Jack and I loved the yum-yum and scro-tum ryhymes - 555

Thanks Michael C., Michael P. and Stu.

(ABC4-I) I have three border collies and they all thought this was dogone funny. Unlike your "dumb" dog - mine are sometimes too smart for my liking. They are 10 times better for security at ten times less pay than a minimum wage rent a cop. No one even thinks about messing around my crib. Well done Mr. Ant. Say. do you have any nieces and/or nephews? Do they call you uncle Ant?

'best SOAB" = very funny. This was a good match of topic and OS...5 yum yums

above was ABC4-I

(ABC4-I) I never expected that much LOLage from that title. But the LOLage was brought in plentiful amounts. 555!

ABC4-I-No barking up the wrong tree with this one. Very funny!

(ABC4) I forgot about this one Jack - the funniest thing (beside the melon-collie-type wordplay) is the way you found and managed to twist in all those -um rhymes - big lols

(ABC4) Consistency at it's finest. . .very um, nice job with the vocabulary bud

(ABC4) Chorus variations excellent, a real son of a b****. :)

One of the cutest you've ever done and with a line like "(I'll fix that dog: deball ... scrotum!)" cute generally isn't what I call a Red Ant parody, but other than that this was a pretty cute one. Oh and let me mention... MUCH BETTER THAN BOB RIVERS!!!!

(ABC) Woof! This song doesn't look like a real arf-fort, but you certainly deserve ap-paws. (Okay, I know, lame.)

By the way, how could you have to be "reminded" of this song when a million punk bands have covered it?

Thanks Guy & IB & & T-COP & Laurie & Stu & Dave & Aggy & Matt & Cat!

Guy: I have a few nieces... they don't know about the "Red Ant" persona.

IB: Cursing is best when it isn't cursing!

Matt: I don't know if Bob Rivers has done this song... if he did, chances are it's incomplete, just like the rest of his parodies.

Aggy: This is one of those songs that takes about 10 minutes to write if the chorus is repeated. It was a bit harder varying most lines.

Matt: Yeah, this one is a style departure from most of my other parodies this year.

Cat: I knew this song had been covered by a lot of people, but the one that surprised me the most was Bobby Fuller: TOS was performed by Sonny Curtis and The Crickets.

funny and cute- how about i am a dog and i sniff bums- anywway- only cause sometimes i write from the animals point of view and it comes out funny- i have some black sabbath songs i call black crabbath

garfield thinks odie is real dumb sorry just ramblin- ur stuffs good though
