The Lyrics
You ain't nothin' but a groundhog
HIdin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a groundhog
HIdin' all the time
Well, you ain't nothin' but a varmit
And you ain't gonna see sunshine
When they said you saw your shadow
Well, you ran back down your hole
When they said you saw your shadow
Meant six more weeks of cold
Should have covered up your hollow
So you would not see sunshine
HIdin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a groundhog
HIdin' all the time
Well, you ain't nothin' but a varmit
And you ain't gonna see sunshine
When they said you saw your shadow
Well, you ran back down your hole
When they said you saw your shadow
Meant six more weeks of cold
Should have covered up your hollow
So you would not see sunshine

Well, if you don't say Punxsutawney

I like that line better than mine =) He did see his shadow, so six more weeks of snow
Cute!
Nice job!
Thanks Adagio and Melhi!
This actually came out in the 50s, so it should have gone in misc.
But it was a really good parody, I give you a perfect score.

I may have mentioned this before, but I'll say it again: That damn rodent makes me rethink my position on gun control.
Feb 04 SOTM--Coulda used another verse, couldn't it have?
Wake me up from a sound sleep, pull me out of a hole, naked by by back legs - I'll give you more than six more weeks of winter.
(SOTM FEB) Cute, fer sure.
Short and shadowy.
(SOTM FEB) I remember some movie about that, I think.
(SOTM) Not bad.
Hey, Jeffaroo, you should record this and send it out to a bunch of morning-show DJs at the end of next January. It's just silly, short, and topical enough to get some airplay.
(FEB SOTM) - Jeff, I thought you shorted this a repeat of the first verse. But it was very well done. 4-5-4. Apologies if I am incorrect about the song length...
Short but sweet...
Not much to work with but not bad.
Sweet and short!
(SOTM) Punxsutaaaaaaawny.... ;-)
Meh, you've done a lot better, but then again I just so happened to have seen 'Groundhog's Day' recently, so I'll cut you a break. Nice and short one, Jeff.
Merry, if I ever take Spaff's advice and record it, can I borrow your line from the first comment? =)
