The Lyrics

"Mark": a goal or target. New or occasional visitors to this site will quickly discover that AmIRight regular Stuart McArthur has an overwhelming crush on Angelina Jolie; hence, the following. OS lyrics here. MIDI here. Covers include Donna Summer and Frank Sinatra.
Angelina Jolie is his girl
She's running through his head
Ev'ry time, place, circumstance
Posts pics from fan mag's pages on his walls:
Fan fan's hot, fevered iron
Poking pasty pair of pants

McArthur, Stu is sitting in the dark
Angelina's photo staring down
Tries to get the ache out, but in vain
I don't think that he can take it
How much longer can he shake it?
Is he ever free of fantasy again?
Don't know!

He imagines Angelina's dress
Falling like a leaf
On the ground beneath her knees
Her breasts, he sucks like baby; cups with hands:
No more lone man writing wistful par-o-dies

McArt, Stu-ART is sitting in the dark
All his sticky icing flowing down
Someone, put this flake out of his pain!
I don't think that he can take it
Any harder, and he'll break it
And he'll never have a way to pee again
Oh, no!

(Stuart does a solo on his instrument)

He will write more funny paro-dy
And he will sing it
"Pretty girl is like a malady"
Somehow, he'll wing it
Closet craft'ly: "Lara Croft-ly" cache [1]
And never let you catch him looking at her pic
And after all the loves of his life
After all the loves of his life
She'll still flick his Bic! [2]

He will take his love into his hands and never lose her
He will worship her with all his glands; also: amuse her
He will have the One that he desires,
And let passion flow like rivers on her thigh
And dreaming always: love of his life
Dreaming: "Angie J. McArthur": wife;
I'll be looking at him
My sigh: Why cry, guy?

(Stuart does an even longer solo on his instrument)

Stu-ART Mc-Art is making messy mark
All his gooey icing streaming down
Someone, pry this bimbo from his brain!
I don't think that he can take it:
Dream of tasty "Angel-cake"; it --
-- Makes his life a Grecian tragedy of pain!
Oh, no!
Oh, no!
No, no!
Oh no!!!!!

[2] Betcha were expecting a different rhyme for "pic", weren't ya?! Buncha pervs!

"All his sticky icing flowing down" - crikey!!!

Thursday April 6th 2006 - we interrupt this bulletin with breaking news - this just in - a decapitated turtle has just been discovered wedged between the boughs of a gumtree growing wild in McArthur's Park, Los Angeles - an extremely satisfied Australian is helping police with their enquiries

LMAO, TT - you are some sort of master of the parodical put-down - and how you got the details so accurate is just plain spooky - I swear those pasty pants have never left my bedroom...grudging 5s :-)

I know the feeling, Stuart. And, no, I'm not talking about our mutual infatuation with the Elf Princess of Wyoming. I, too, have wanted to say, "Hello, Jolie!" But the Jones you have for her, I have only had for one woman. She's not available, either. At least you have the option of a threesome with her and Brad. He might not be into it, but she might be, and maybe that'll split them up... which might not help you, but... oh, who am I kidding? As long as I can't have the woman I love, why should anyone else be happy? (You can tell the Yankees lost last night, 'cause I'm a little bitter. I'll just have to take the DeLay resignation and live off that until Yanks-A's first pitch tonight.)

You are my bud, dude, my tightest bud, Stu
You make me happy with wit so gay
You'll never know, Stu, how much I love you
Glad you liked your tribute today.

The gumtree, native to Australia, has caused major ecological problems in the United States, where it is generally known as the eucalyptus. These include invading and displacing local vegetation, and causing major fire hazards in California. Clearly, Australian life forms should stay in Australia, rather than making trouble for the rest of the world.

McArthur's part. . . .never mind. Nicely lambasted pretentiOuS, TT. 555

What a lambasting!! (JB took my word, I'm just repeating it). Poor Stu.... :( Good parody. though. 5's

possibly the best song ever derived from the worst song ever

"Someone put this flake out of his pain" made me LOL! I can't wait to read Stu's retort parody to the Turtle Man. There will be a retort won't there?

Botany Cop, lighten up and go to Outback Steakhouse. No rules, not even your own, just right. Though we can also say that Angelina gives Stuart some bloomin' onions! And Tommy, I didn't actually say whether I liked it. Well, I loved it. Any Mac Park parody that manages to be good is usually great, and this one can park right alongside 'em. And Alvin, there are plenty of worse songs. In fact, New York's Z100 plays about six of them every hour. (I wanna put James Blunt and Sean Paul in a steel cage. The loser gets deported!)

Rick, I'm insulted. You really think that I would stoop SO low as to "lambast" a fellow amirightian (terrapin or non-) by abusing the privileged powers of parody? That I have such little empathy for poor flippered sea-creatures that I would mercilessly lampoon the very things (ie. goddesses) that add pleasure and meaning to their lives - that I have such little respect for terrestial chelonians that I would insensitively pen such tips as "any harder and he'll break it" regarding their solo indulgences - shame on you - my file on TT is not quite big enough yet ;-)

Great stuff TT, this is like a celebrity roast. And what Alvin said (though Stu's and WAY's parodies are up there). 5s
Red Ant - April 06, 2006 - Report this comment
PS - "Big For Bs" is up. Thanks for the suggestion.
Rick C - April 06, 2006 - Report this comment
Yes, Mr. McArthur, I am hungry for some Stu-ed turtle. No offense TT but, yours was the first shot across the bow and, I think Stu's response might be entertaining. HEY, this could be a new contest, roasting (politely, of course) each other.

ROFLMAO 555!

Botany Cop, thanks for clearing that up, but what about Elle Macpherson? She can invade my vegetation any time!
Michael Pacholek, also thanks for clarifying; wasn't sure....; thanks.... How 'bout AIR slogan, "No rules, just write"?.... John Barry, AFW, Adagio, alvin, thanks.... Red Ant, thanks, and you're welcome.... Rick C, Stu and I have had a thing going on.. no, not that thing, (no one's supposed to know about that), but a friendly feud:

I enjoy writing tributes in general, but this one was especially fun. I would never do a tribute to anyone whom I didn't really like, and I really like Stuart, and I liked his reply parody as well.

Too funny, TT... I echo Johnny D and loved Stu's jaw drop at the 'icing' line in particular ... It fell *so low* I think it hit the metafloor! Dug 'tooling around' all 7:23 of it (and I never even had to take it outta park!)

TJC, I think the floors were wood, not meta, but glad you liked this 'transmission'. Thanks for stopping by/reading/v/c. :)
