The Lyrics

I spent a few years in the military learning Arabic, and in the process, transformed myself into the leading Arab to English punster found on this website. The first stanza deals with the striking similarity between the word Shi'ite and a certain four letter word in English for fecal material .. A similarity I only recognized as I was COMPOSING THIS PARODY .. (No, not really)
Who says "Shi'ite" makes for good puns
Well, I have my doubts
Cause its really not that funny
If a toddler can pinch one out
But here's the craziest punning
To hit your funny bone
I hear that Shi'ite LaBeouf
'sgonna play Sunni Corleone

Mullah told me not to pun
Mullah told me not to pun
He said .. That aint the way to have fun, Sa'udi
That aint the way to have fun .. No, No

Heres another groaner
Did you hear about Tony Dow?
He just became a Muslim
Hes Muhammad Wally now
And this current pun I'm spinning
May take things way too far
But I hear that Jerry Mathers
Is now Jareem Abdul-Bivar

Ayatollyah not to pun
Ayatollyah not to pun
I said .. That aint the way to Allah, Sunni
That aint the way to Allah .. لا، لا*

The radio is blasting tunes
Of Furanq Abdul Zappar
I think I'll stop and have a bite
At Allah's new Snackbar
And this tasty treat you're serving
Goes well with Furanq's new song
What's this name you gave it
A Ramadhan Ding Dong?

Ayatollyah not to pun
Ayatollyah not to pun
I said .. Khomeini times must I say, "Stop it!"
Khomeini times must I say ..

Mullah told me .. ملا told me, told me
That aint the way to have fun, سني

Mullah told me ......




*That Playboy Bunny like thingie is actually the Arabic word for no ... La'

Normally I dismiss getting 13 555's in only 12 views but in this case I'll make an exception because this parody is THAT GOOD. Im even tempted to give myself 555's

The Arabic word for day is "yom", same as Hebrew. So you know what the Arabic word for Mother's Day is .. Yom MAMA!! Ever time BLM comes to my hometown to demonstrate, I pull that joke on them ... Gets 'em every time

Brilliant and nearly perfect. REALLY made me laugh.The first idea works better if it's "it's not that stinkin' funny if a kid can pinch one out". sorry to meddle, but I did not "get it"until I read the preamble. I re-tweak my own rhymes and creations all the time.

Mish mushkilah (Arabic for no problema). I've adopted the attitude that if you're going to have a presence on Social media, you either "develop a thick skin or put down the cellphone." Besides, your tweek would work better; cant have the reader puzzled to start things off
