The Lyrics
wrote this in ten minutes so i could enter the u comp (i think it shows !)
whoooa my love,my darling
i'm angered by your watch
it's broke - not on time
and time goes by so slowly
your time it needs a crutch
i've seen the sign
you need a clock
you need a clock
E-bay speed a clock to me
i know you would rather let it be,let it be
leave it and let be - yeah
it's time to say goodbye
timex for me - timex for me
i am coming E-bay timex for me
(repeat 1rst verse)
i'm angered by your watch
it's broke - not on time
and time goes by so slowly
your time it needs a crutch
i've seen the sign
you need a clock
you need a clock
E-bay speed a clock to me
i know you would rather let it be,let it be
leave it and let be - yeah
it's time to say goodbye
timex for me - timex for me
i am coming E-bay timex for me
(repeat 1rst verse)

Not bad for ten minutes, though I think the pacing's off a bit in the middle. Since I'm also in the "U" round I'll wait til then to give the record a listen to rate this. Good luck!
(U) - yeah, I'll go with kudos for the ten minutes, but it's not well-constructed enough or funny enough or dazzling enough to score votes in a comp - it's hard to fluke points without putting the the work in, but it's not a bad idea, tomario :-)
(U05) It needs pacing attention, good premise!
THANKS FOR YOUR COMMENTS PEOPLE I THINK I SHOULD BE SHOWING THESE PARODIES MORE RESPECT,10 MINUTES JUST DOESN'T CUT IT.I'LL BE BACK !!!
(ABCU05) Well, what Stu said but I'll elaborate further. The first verse was pretty good but the pacing quickly fell apart in the second verse. Also, the last verse is NOT an identical repeat of the first, and because they are different I would have docked you on pacing just for that even if the 2nd verse was perfect. Having parodied this OS I'll say it isn't easy working with the short lines, rhyming and inflected/carried syllables (I did a pretty bad job of it) which, IMHO, are crucial to doing Unchained Melody well. Still a good effort for 10 minute though, and you'll improve over "time". ;-)
Not bad... you're a newbie so I got to hand it to you joining in on a ABC contest, you got balls, even if you're female (which I'll admit is kinda weird but not the main point of this comment) You got guts kid and I've got to give you points for that... Good job
(ABC) Yeah, pacing needs a bit of work...I liked the idea, Tomario, and applaud you for entering ABC. Not quite there for me, but heading in the right direction. 444
(ABC05) As others have said, the pacing's off and, it's not a riot so, I voted it a 444. You are on the right track though and, it's not bad for a ten minute parody. Keep at it.
(ABC) You've got talent, Tomario, don't give up!
