The Lyrics

A merged parody. I think we can trust John A. Barry to do the companion volume.
(drum opening)

I'm puttin' a spell on you!
I'm puttin' a spell on you!
I'm puttin' a spell on you!
I'm puttin' a spell on you!

'Cause you cheat on me, honey!
You cheat on me and spend my money!
You think that it's plenty o' funny!
Well, that ain't right, child!

You know that you're lyin'!
You're leavin' me sad and cryin'!
You that my patience you're tryin'!
Mm-hm!
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
right, child!

I'm puttin' a spell on you!
I'm puttin' a spell on you!
I'm puttin' a spell on you!
I'm puttin' a spell on you!

I know you're runnin' around.
Can't stand you puttin' me down.
I don't care if you don't want me.
I've zapped you just like you haunt me!

I'm puttin' a spell on you!
(Spell on you!)
I'm puttin' a spell on you!
(Spell on you!)

'Cause you cheat on me, honey!
You cheat on me and spend my money!
You think that it's plenty o' funny!
Well, that ain't right, child!

You know that you're lyin'!
You're leavin' me sad and cryin'!
You that my patience you're tryin'!
Mm-hm!
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
right!

(instrumental break)

I'm puttin' a spell on you!
(Spell on you!)
I'm puttin' a spell on you!
(Spell on you!)

I know you're runnin' around.
Can't stand you puttin' me down.
I don't care if you don't want me.
I've zapped you just like you haunt me!

'Cause you cheat on me, honey!
You cheat on me and spend my money!
You think that it's plenty o' funny!
Well, that ain't right, child!

You know that you're lyin'!
You're leavin' me sad and cryin'!
You that my patience you're tryin'!
Mm-hm!
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
Well, that ain't
right!

(Spell on you!)
(Spell on you!)

(instrumental break)

Spell on you!
Spell on you!
Spell on you!
Spell on you!
(repeat 'til fade)

great smoosh...hard to imagine two songs farther apart in tone

It would be a bit funnier if you had some more information. Remember: Just because the OS repeated itself a lot doesn't mean a parody of it has to do the same.

Thanks, Alvin. Perhaps "Spell" with "You Light Up My Life"? Or perhaps the collected works of Leo Sayer? (Don't get any ideas. I can't stand either one.) Jonathan, after over 1200 parodies, I think I'm a pretty good judge of what's funny, not to mention proper pacing, which helps the song a lot, including in this case. But I did goof one oft-repeated line: "You that my patience you're tryin'" should've been "You know it's my patience you're tryin'."
