The Lyrics
Oh, what a line,
Late this evening sitting close to me,
Tried to make an add lib move and see,
And she responded “What a line”.
Oh, what a line…
You know I didn’t even ask her name,
But I came up with something really lame,
She shot back, “Oh, What a line”.
Oh my, I got this funny feeling when she turned on her stool...
And I, I recall really sounding like a tool.
Oh, what a line,
Criticizing, ostracizing me,
This was not how I thought it would be,
Mother, help me… what a line.
I felt the crush of my ego ripped asunder,
Tossed to the floor and ground to pulp by the high-heeled wonder.
Oh, what a line!
Oh my, I got this weird sensation and I felt like a fool...
And I, I recall really sounding like a tool.
Oh, what a line…
In my head, although it sounded trite,
I just hoped that it would come out right,
Total dweeb job, what a line...
I felt the crush of my ego ripped asunder,
Tossed to the floor and ground to pulp by the high-heeled wonder.
Oh, what a line!
(No, no, no, no, no. Doh, doh, doh, doh, doh, doh.)
Oh, what a line!
(No, no, no, no, no. Boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo.)
Oh, what a line!
(No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no.)
Oh, what a line!
(No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no.)
Oh, what a line!
(No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no.)
Oh, what a line!
(No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no.)
Late this evening sitting close to me,
Tried to make an add lib move and see,
And she responded “What a line”.

Oh my, I got this funny feeling when she turned on her stool...
And I, I recall really sounding like a tool.
Oh, what a line,
Criticizing, ostracizing me,

(No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no.)

That line didn't work in December 1963 when the song was set, or March 1976 when the song hit Number 1. I'll bet she slapped you five times. So here's an ice pack with five cubes in it.
"I felt the crush of my ego ripped asunder,
Tossed to the floor and ground to pulp by the high-heeled wonder"
...marvellous :-)

Absolute, all-time worst pickup line ever: "You'll do". 555, even with the glitch on "ad lib" lol.
Walt, you're pretty darn good at this parody-writing lark! Has anyone suggested to you that you should be entering the comps over on inthe00s (see messageboard)? You should seriously consider it. Great stuff. 555+
What? 30 views 7 votes and only 5 comments. They should be "lining" up for this one. This line should by all means be busy. Very nice work. I am impressed.
Thanx to all for the feedback... Dam, TT, you are a task master. LOL I am trying (yes you are) to do gooder...Somethings get "worser" with spell-check when your on the fly. I am fairly new at this... so what are the comps? I am honored by y'all takin the time to leave feedback.
Competitions. The message-boards are at http://www.inthe00s.com/. You can sign up, read/post, pm others, etc. -- TaskmasTer.
waly...click on the "messageboard" link (top right of home page) or go direct to www.inthe00s.com (Amiright's sister site)...look arounf for "Song Parody Contests" link and you'll find all manner of comps you can enter. The big ones at the moment are:
Song Of The Month (SOTM): The blue-ribbon event...you choose your best parody of the month and enter it... ABC Comp: enter any parody whose title starts with the corresponding letter (we're up to F)
Artistry: B.A. Dave's monster marathon...200+ randomly selected artists over the next 7 years. Enter when you want.
Decathlon: 10 topics, 10 genres over 20 weeks. Unfortunately this one is closed to new participants, but I'm sure it'll start again when this is finished
and countless other spur-of-the-moment contests...but enough of my waffling: head on over and check it out (you've got to register to enter the comps, but it's free)
