The Lyrics
One of em lives out in south California
I won't be name-dropping darling, I warn ya
One was a student, of art he was fond
These are a few of my favorite Johns
One of em, lately, is hitched to my sister
I hope he loves her and never will ditch her
Although he's ten years her junior (oh yawn)
These are a few of my favorite Johns
One of em writes books and seems like a genius
One, well, I wish he would go back to Venus
One's a professor who lives by a pond
These are a few of my favorite Johns
Joe's will come and Bill's will go and
Now and then, a Ron
But lately it seems everywhere that I turn
I'm running into a John
la de da la la la la la la la la la ......
When I'm standing on the corner...(not really)
If I knew the art of magic
And I had a wand
I'd turn every man into something so grand
And all of them would be John
I won't be name-dropping darling, I warn ya
One was a student, of art he was fond
These are a few of my favorite Johns
One of em, lately, is hitched to my sister
I hope he loves her and never will ditch her
Although he's ten years her junior (oh yawn)
These are a few of my favorite Johns
One of em writes books and seems like a genius
One, well, I wish he would go back to Venus
One's a professor who lives by a pond
These are a few of my favorite Johns
Joe's will come and Bill's will go and
Now and then, a Ron
But lately it seems everywhere that I turn
I'm running into a John
la de da la la la la la la la la la ......
When I'm standing on the corner...(not really)
If I knew the art of magic
And I had a wand
I'd turn every man into something so grand
And all of them would be John

Since I don't know the Johns to which you are referrfing I'll pass on voting this time, but a slightly late congratulations on 500 parodies Royce.
Thanks Red Ant; it took me 3 years to write 500; I appreciate your comments, all the time that you have done so.
good pacing good read. congratulations 500
Good parody, Royce --- and congratulations on reaching 500 posted parodies.
500! That's a bi-John-ic achievement!
Congratulations on Number 500, but in this case, the word "John" could be miscontrued. Not that I would ever accuse you. Well, not of that, anyway.
Congrats again on 500, Royce. Good John, er, job. 5s
Geez, Royce...we've got milestones being toppled right and left (not speaking politically there...lol) here...You've passed 500, Rick D just passed 900 recently, John Barry passed 900....er....1000...I mean, 1100...Kristof topped 200, Stuart Mac over 100, alvin rhodes 600...I think AFW flew past me quite a while ago and may be over 400 now...I'm sure I'm missing and dissing somebody here...Anyway...nice John...er...job here...hmmm...3 years for 500...a pretty good pace...I'm just over 2 years and 289...but slowing down right now for other life occurrences of numerous variety...Congrats! OH...yeah...5's ~ ~ ~
Congratulations on 500, Royce! I got chuckles out of the "oh yawn" and "standing on a corner" lines. If you ever do get your wand, please don't give us any more John Kerrys.
Funny parody, congrats on 500.
Thanks for the comments from each person.
Nicely done and congratulations on 500, Royce! It'll take me about 5 years to hit that mark at the rate I'm going. 555
