The Lyrics

So, enough with the Arwen pseudo-tributes, which, truth be told, were really all about ME and MY inability to write her a decent birthday parody. This one is actually about HER (whaddaya know...)
Snow, Geos, and dentists' chairs,
And curly Shirley Temple hair,
And talk of pants and underwear,
And lots of cyber-play
But there are times when playing's done,
When even Reuben's witty puns
Can't bring our elf a bit of fun:
When things don't go her way

When Arwen pouts, she makes a frown,
Her lip sticks out, her mouth turns down,
Her pout says, "you are bastards, all"
I don't like when she pouts at all

Bloom, abloom with sex appeal*,
And Harry at the potter's wheel,
Such fantasies are quite ideal
For posting every day
And though Leola finds them strange,
Ignore that bitch • she's just deranged
(Besides, these things are just exchanged
With Ashley anyway)

When Arwen pouts, she makes a frown,
Her lip sticks out, her mouth turns down,
Her pout says, "you are bastards, all"
I don't like when she pouts at all

Cheers, my dear, for falling down
And ripping your new evening gown,
For now a subject has been found
For your next parody!
So, up and on your way you go --
You'll write one, and before you know,
Your fans will vote all 5's • although
You'll get no fives from me

So Arwen pout -- yes, make a frown!
Stick out that lip! Yes, turn it down!
Let's get into a cyber-brawl!
I love your pouting after all
*and sweetie, you KNOW how hard that line was for me to write...

Oh LEO!!! I love Love LOVE this! My day has been made, your skid has been halted, and Orlando (and yes I know that line must have been torture) has broken up with Kate Bosworth. All is well in the world!

Seriously, FABulous...if I were there, I'd kiss you!!

P.S. Excellent original song, too...=)

Do I sense a love-hate relationship going on?... I'm a bit confused.

Amused: that's almost Reubenesque. Almost.

JD: Hey, did you READ the last line of the freakin' parody, bastard?

Arwen: ...and only a week late!

Ash: Aw, you only liked it because I worked you into it. Self-centered bastard.

YWN: Don't know what to tell you -- it's a TOTTM thing...

Reuben: Dammit! I should fire my proofreader -- that should be "shitty puns"!

very nicely done, Leo, but I'm the one pouting because I just did one to Both Sides Now for posting TODAY - talk about stealing thunder - but ....and I thought your bracketed line was especially deft - 555

Nothing like leafing through old(er) parodies and finding a gem of gems to make me smile...=) Yes...I realize that it's about me...and that I may be biased...but this really DOES kick ass, Leo...hehehe.
