The Lyrics
Before the sexual revolution, teens had to heed songs like Frank Sinatra's "Love and Marriage", while newlyweds were guided by Johnny Cash to be faithful to each other. But boys were boys, and as Bill Cosby taught, sometimes one body part took control. Return with me now to those spilling ways of yesteryear.....
I keep a growth watch on this part of mine;
Why sleep? My thighs slide open, all's fun-primed.
Don't need to spend loot for some prize behinds;
It was sure fine, my stalk's design.
I find it very, very easy to renew;
I bind myself, alone when each day's through.
Yes, I'll admit I'd rather pull than screw.
'Twill cause you blind, wise talkers whined.
As soon as night is dark, ere day is light,
I leap to squander mind, go play sans sight;
And happiness I've known proves that it's right.
Brief pause, decline; I balk, supine.
I've got a Playboy, keep it as tour guide;
It gives me cause for love that I can't hide.
Poor youths' eyes grow, might even try to turn aside.
My jaws chew, grind; my Jockeys bind.
Fight sleep, can't doze, watch as the stars oft shine;
I keep my eyes wide, hopin' all the time.
My heap extends out o'er the fly, unwinds;
Applause, resign. My rocks feel fine!
Why sleep? My thighs slide open, all's fun-primed.
Don't need to spend loot for some prize behinds;
It was sure fine, my stalk's design.
I find it very, very easy to renew;
I bind myself, alone when each day's through.
Yes, I'll admit I'd rather pull than screw.
'Twill cause you blind, wise talkers whined.
As soon as night is dark, ere day is light,
I leap to squander mind, go play sans sight;
And happiness I've known proves that it's right.
Brief pause, decline; I balk, supine.
I've got a Playboy, keep it as tour guide;
It gives me cause for love that I can't hide.
Poor youths' eyes grow, might even try to turn aside.
My jaws chew, grind; my Jockeys bind.
Fight sleep, can't doze, watch as the stars oft shine;
I keep my eyes wide, hopin' all the time.
My heap extends out o'er the fly, unwinds;
Applause, resign. My rocks feel fine!

In the last line, "recline" is better than "resign" to express relaxation after success.
I'd pay Cash to have this on CD! what else can I say? It Rocks! 5's
It's often said here that parodies can be on any subject. But surely, there are the matters of good taste and judgment. By those standards, a vivid description of compulsive masturbation doesn't make the cut.
Taking a good whack at a touchy, feely subject.. But I don't think anyone will go blind reading it...And this isn't a G-rated site, is it? 555 strokes
AFW, it has something to do with class. You wouldn't understand.
Odious onanism spills over into egregious exhibitionism.
Which is then cattily criticized by arrogant alliteration
Filth not worthy of a talented parodist. 1-1-1
Only pervs get their jollies off of beat the censor crap like this. Nothing praise worthy at all. 111 condemnations.
Thanks, Jonathan, AFW & the other 2 "pervs" who voted 555. The 333 could go either way, AC or DC.
Yes," You Suck", I did "beat the censor" by changing the word subs from my original draft for "close watch", "heart of", "all" & "walk" in the first stanza of the OS. This is a true "parody" in that it turns on its head the OS that claims the writer's absolute fidelity to his wife while on long entertainment tours away from her, similar to the extended absences of truck drivers, railroad, cruise ship or airplane crews, etc.
I apologize to JH3, Jh & Rex for this offense. I needed to "try my hand" at something non-political.

One of the signs of a good parodist is the ability to deal with a potentially risque subject without resorting to profanity and graphic descriptions. This is done in good humor. I am not a particular fan of the genre, but as bawdy songs go, it is not offensive.
Thanks, Patrick; I should have replied sooner. Now I'd change "myself, alone" to "my selfish bone" in line 6.
