Up in the castle, trying to make a play!
He got the axe on, he got the sword, son!
Oh yeah, rejoice and pray!

Joining all the Knight-guys in the Crusade!
He's got a lotta doubt about his woman,
He's got a lotta doubt, alright ---

Wears the Lock of Wife!

Woo-hoo!
Here's Sir John, he battles well an' he's gorey!

As one John to another, sir, I'd say you've locked in 5s.
Knights and crusades - This has got to be about chastity belts (if that's the correct term). I didn't know that Sir Elton John was around back then though! :-)
Excellent meatevil story...good for someone like Chastity Bono 5's
the local locksmith was very popular, i bet...5s
Speaking of the Bonos, if Sonny were alive back then, he'd never get any. He always had the wrong key. Some great subs for the OS lines here, JD! 555
You're a wonder, Johnny.
Let's toss back a couple of belts for this one.
Belated thanks, John, Peter, AFW, alvin, Rick, Royce, and Michael.
THAT was unexpected! "He's just a dong whose prong'll shrivel due to strife" was my favorite line, among many.
ABC3 - I gotta join Red Ant with that one, DEFINATELY did not see it coming.
(ABC-L) And just when I was thinking how anyone could possibly make a song about chastity belts funny...you throw in a lovely Arwenesque twist! Excellent, JD, and it helps that the OS has always been a favorite of mine.
(ABC3L) I like this. Well done!
(ABC3) Chastity bono. 555
(ABC3L) See above!
ABC3L-Great
Cute one, but one question: do they make chastity belts to keep OTHER GIRLS from making out with the damsel? That's more common than people realize, and it's every bit as bad in South America as in North America.----MM
(ABC3L) great idea, great execution, as always, JD, but the thing with your syllable-matching is that it makes the parody just such a breeze to sing - 555
slightly confusing, but 5s anyway
You locked me into your parody room, and the only key is this 5
ABC...this OS is one of my all time favorites...it always makes me super happy. Just like this parody did, actually...=)
