The Lyrics
Part 2 of my new musical, "Ancient Grease"...more to follow.
Look at me; I'm Socrates
Father of philosophy
Concepts refined by my enquiring mind
Take heed of Socrates!
In my youth I sought out truth
Then one day, it cameforsooth!
One thing's for sure; that is all thought is pure
As long as you have proof
I don't par-tay, dateI like to debate
The nature of Love versus Sex
Tired of know-it-alls, coz their wisdom's small
Riches find the man who reflects!
Arguing will lose its sting
Without thorough reasoning
Facts don't exist (man, that gets "wise" men p***ed!)
In my philosophy
Plato, Platoprotégé!
Got this bulls*** straight awat
Others did mock: I was in for a shock
Some hemlock.for Socrates!

Brilliant idea for a theme of parodies. The title made me laugh when I came across it (and not just because of "Bill And Ted")
Another slick and smooth one...fives
ancient grease ????....what a scream...looking forward to reading more of this...5s
Soc. it to us!
You're a pillar of humor, Cristoferus.
Thanks Jeff, AFW, Alvin and Michus Pacholecles....my knowledge of Socratic Method isn't what it used to be; glad you enjoyed it!
Good! :D 5's
"Ancient Grease"??? Great concept, fun song... so what's next? "We go together like Aristotlotleotledingdong"?
Okay, if you're going to make an album of this I'll get the movie.=)
"Plato, Plato…protégé! Got this bulls*** straight away" replaced the first 2 lines I was going to highlight Kristof, but some very erudite humour here - and my bathroom mirror must be VERY rich (to lower the humour level a kilometre) - I eagerly await "The One That I Want" - those Greeks had an astonishing range of means of sexual expression - 555
I bow respectfully to the philosophical predecessor to my parody "Talk Away Rene" !
I want more ancient grease! I can see socrates dancing at the soc hop. good stuff
Nothing spartan about this...555
This reminds me of Trash Truckin by Superfreak.
Who is singing it? I have some ideas for who it could be, but I don't know
I am unfamiliar with ancient history, but just by singing this in my head hits a chord. 5's all round!
