"It's a Folding Chair"

Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

Pippin already had this in the works when the other two parodies of this song came out yesterday (both excellent, BTW) so we decided to finish it up while the song was fresh in everyone's mind... ;-)
Well I pried this shaky lawn chaise
But I guess the hinges stressed
And it's left me kind of stunned, hey?
'Cus it happened while undressed
It was made down in Gibraltar
Shoddy workmanship's a crime
Now this furniture attacks me all the time

Sell it cheap, so cheap I bought two
It's a folding chair surprise
And it's rusty springs and loose screws
Causin' water in my eyes
I'd complain in correspondence
But I've got worse things on my mind
Read and find out why - the pain's sending me blind!

Will you help me solve this riddle
The spring's caught my pubic hair
My appendage may be little
Not enough, though, to be spared
Well I cry and shake it
My thing's decayin'
This truss - can't break it!

Well, I'm deep in slinky corkscrew
Of a folding chair surprise
And I cuss and swear aloud too
'Cus it snapped shut 'tween my thighs
Now I am getting all despondent
As I've seen 'Boo-Boo' misaligned
Because fortune's seen my frank and beans entwined

It's impossible to piddle
Now too late to breed an heir
Pride and Joy's caught in the middle
Of this satanistic chair
Willie-cide it makes it,
I should start prayin',
It's gonna break it...

Bob bob bobbit a bob bob bobbit
A bob bob bobbit a bob bob bobbit...

(repeat and fade)

And you can tell everybody
This is your dong
It's in formaldehyde but
Now that it's gone
I think you will find
I think you will find
That the tabloids will declare
That alien eunuchs abducted your chair....

5's, and now I'm startin' to think I've gotta do a parody of "Sister Golden Hair" now, too! Hmm....hmm....let's see now....hmm.....

Clever idea. Reminded me of the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving cartoon when Snoopy had to deal with the Lawn Chair From Hell. :)

Oh Yeah. It was suggestions about recording, and how we might do it from afar. The gist was any way you have of sending me a vocal track in rhythm and reasonably in tune, I can probably do something with. I remember telling you that I have a feature in my studio where I can make male to female changes in a vocal. (octave shifts, basically) Email me with song suggestions and descriptions of what you have to record with.

Very nice. I had a chair break on me a while ago, but luckily *not* in this particular way. You get 5s.

Laugh so hard that I cry. I was crying already for obvious reasons but still.

"I'd complain in correspondence, But I've got worse things on my mind" - heh heh. This remains one of my faves of yours, Smeagol & Gollum. Great stuff.

The images and clever rhymes; particularly piddle, heir, middle, chair; are still hilarious.

Hey, I was just reading random news this morning and came across this story...

www.metro.co.uk/weird/article.html?in_article_id=18046&in_page_id=2
I immediately thought of this parody!! =)

M & P - This is a hoot. Pip, as you know I did a same type song on this OS. I hope you guys are not upset that I did it. I failed to look up anything previous that was done to this OS. Your's is a real hoot compared to mine. You two get the credit and I'm sorry for walking onto your stuff. I can have my parody removed if you would like. Sorry.

Guy, this is not a problem. Have no concerns. Glad you enjoyed it, as you know we did, yours.
