Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

its plain to see...maternity...
was this octomommy's problem...eight, she made
world in a spin...reports came in
now, through octomommy's problems...she must wade

this mother hen....made history
an octomommy problem, has she
have two or three...most would agree
but this octomommy's problems never fade

oh what a swarm..more than the norm
cause she could not hide away...the press, she braved
a watershed...of babies she had bred
when this octomommy's body misbehaved

children spring...she's soon renowned
she's layin' low...but still she's found
just let her be...no need to see...
all this octomommy's problems on parade

word leaked out...there was no doubt
the moral ?...be careful what you crave
(be real careful what you crave)
oh what joy...a single girl or boy
lordy...a houseful is depraved
(surely, its depraved)

now poor she...is busy as a bee
with this crowd, there's way too much to do
she's never free...no privacy
its this octomommy's problem...boo hoo
its this octomommy's problem...boo hoo
its this octomommy's problem...boo hoo

Good one, Alvin! I was always a big fan of octomom's crazy news stories! She's such an amazing breeder. The press is not her only problem she had to deal with but struggling with 8 babies at once. I also hear that she spends most of the money on herself other than her 8 babies. Anyways, it's all good!! 555!

Absolute perfection, love Ringo, I'm ringing in with the tenth set of fives!

Octo -fives. The homonym in the OS must have inspired you.

I loved the parody and also loved hearing about your geographical proximity to the "Big Event"

I knew I was gonna love this one from the title onward, and it didn't disappoint! TR, try this one: "How many Octomoms does it take to change a light bulb? Apparently, only one, but it'll be a really dim bulb."

Sorry I'm late for the party Alvin, but I agree with all of the above comments and I think it's interesting how you close you were to the "big event". I too was very close to a big event, namely the 2008 Olympic track and field trials, which was far more interesting than the birth of octuplets IMHO and was even noisier than eight screaming babies. Here are some 5s.
