The Lyrics
Technically a rewrite. But the changes are fairly significant, I don't submit all that many songs, and I want this version to be my June SOTM entry. Also, if "beer-tiful" isn't a word yet, I want credit for it.
When I want to---score booty fine
But I score you---booty canine
Before I can want you, all I have to do
is drii-ii-ink
Drink, drink, dri-ink
When I have got---Bud goggles on
You look a lot--less like Saddam
You beer-tiful swan, you, all I have to do
is drii-ii-ink
Love is truly blind
When it's Miller Time
That's when I'm---in the mood
Only trouble's just---JEE-zus!
Sometimes it turns out she's a duuu-ude
When I want to---get me some tail
I just need to---get me some ale
Then I'll magic wand you, all I have to do
Is drii-ii-ink
Drink, drink, dri-ink....
Alcohol makes her
Look like Liv Ty-ler
And that sure---ain't too bad
But in the light of dawn---Dream On--
Miss Tyler turns into her daaa-aad
I love booze so---it really pays
Because I know---it works both ways
I'll look like Keanu, all she has to do
is drii-ii-ink.....
Drink, drink, dri-ink....
But I score you---booty canine
Before I can want you, all I have to do
is drii-ii-ink
Drink, drink, dri-ink
When I have got---Bud goggles on
You look a lot--less like Saddam
You beer-tiful swan, you, all I have to do
is drii-ii-ink
Love is truly blind
When it's Miller Time
That's when I'm---in the mood
Only trouble's just---JEE-zus!
Sometimes it turns out she's a duuu-ude
When I want to---get me some tail
I just need to---get me some ale
Then I'll magic wand you, all I have to do
Is drii-ii-ink
Drink, drink, dri-ink....
Alcohol makes her
Look like Liv Ty-ler
And that sure---ain't too bad
But in the light of dawn---Dream On--
Miss Tyler turns into her daaa-aad
I love booze so---it really pays
Because I know---it works both ways
I'll look like Keanu, all she has to do
is drii-ii-ink.....
Drink, drink, dri-ink....

Booty canine... LOL!
If it is a rewrite, I didn't see the original. Pacing was *obviously* perfect, and like mac said, your opening lines got you an immediate 5 on How Funny. Great stuff here - I've never had excessive alcohol before, but your parody in particular has given me insight. I'm looking forward to the delusional, gender-switching wonderland that is drunkenness.
The part about Saddam got me, and the part about Steven Tyler finished me off. I'm still LOL.
"But in the light of dawn---Dream On--
Miss Tyler turns into her daaa-aad"
... does this mean Miss Tyler is Steve Tyler's daughter (the Aerosmith chap)? Never realised that. Anyway didn't catch this first time around... not you best, Claude, but pretty damn good, anyway :-)

I have to echo Phil and Jango's admiration of the whole 'Liv/'Dream On'/Steven' idea -- really, really nice. But Phil, have you been livin' in a cave, dude? Even an old celeb-ignorant guy like me knows about Liv and her dad! :-)
I think I could probably get a doctorate in "Celebignorance", Leo - I really, truly, do not give a proverbial flying f... for celebrity for celebrity's sake. I thought Liv made a beautiful elf, and love a lot of her old man's music... but I'll probably have forgotten that she's his kid by the time the subject comes up again. It's why I never do well in pub quizzes - they seem to think this sort of thing is important.
funny as hell....5s.....i'm actually going to see these guys on july 1 at the hollywood bowl...opening for simon and garfunkel
Well done, Claude. I agree with what everybody else wrote, but are you saying that you don't look like Keanu to sober women?
I think I vageuly remember reading it the first time around but this is much better! Excellent!
Phil, not only is Live Tyler Steve's daughter, but her mother is Bebe Buell (now don't tell me you don't know who THAT is...)

Beertiful stuff!
Hey thanks for the comments all; sorry it took me so long to reply but I left for vacation the day after this appeared and just got back today. Been catching up on some of the great stuff I missed; wish I could read and comment on them all but you know how it is. Thanks again and thanks also to anyone who commented on the first version of this; I think I dropped the ball there too.
Hey, you thief! Claude Prez already did this!!!

Heh heh. It's fun comparing the two versions. What I miss from your first write: The title, the postscript, and "Reject from 'Swan.'" But I like your edits, especially throwing Saddam and "Dream On" in there. And "beertiful" is a great addition to the lexicon.
In both, of course, I like your sub for "Gee whiz" and the whole concept. I saw the Everly Brothers do "Dream" the other night, and having your version in my head pretty much ruined the experience for me.
Oh, and Merry: Miss November 1974. Do I win?

So this is where Beertiful came from. Spaff used it to describe one of my songs and gave you proper credit. I love a good, beertiful song! Warms the heart!
(SOTM) Already voted, but I'd just like to say, again, that this is pretty darn funny. So far, you're number one on my list...then again, yours is the first one I've read... ;-)
(SOTM) DKTOS but ROFL, KO'd from XXXX. PS. Beertiful!
(SOTM) Brilliant and funny!
+++Restoring vote that was lost due to 7-28-04 system problem+++
(SOTM) I'll revote you 5s! :-)
Good one! Are we talking from experience here Claude?
Hehe, nice one Rick. Beer, bringing people together, at least until next morning.
it's good but not quite up to the prez-idential standard i've gotten used to
Hmm... Your name isn't Rick, is it... I wonder what I was drinkin' that night... Still great, 'Claude'
