The Lyrics

Hopefully San Antonio was spared....
All my hexes wiped out Texas
And Texas is a place I really like to be
But all my hexes wiped out Texas
And so I have to settle for Tennessee.

The buildings fell in Texarkana when I flew on a broom
Hurricane Arlene drenched Abilene when I wished upon the moon
Alice, Houston and Galveston somehow fell into the sea
And a tornado levelled Temple when I chanted the Wiccan Rede.

All my hexes wiped out Texas
And Texas is a place I really like to be
But all my hexes wiped out Texas
And so I have to settle for Tennessee.

I remember that old Frio river where I cast my very first spell
But it brought bad luck and in no time the folks were giving me hell
My transcendental meditation only made matters worse
And I'll always hate myself for putting Texas under a curse

All my hexes wiped out Texas
And Texas is a place I really like to be
But all my hexes wiped out Texas
And so I have to settle for Tennessee.

Some folks think I'm hiding
it's been rumored that I died
But I'm in living Hell in Tennessee.

Is this Harry Potter with a vengeance? Not bad. Glad you spared San Antonio.

Good parody, but I think maybe there could have been more changes from the original.

Had a bit of trouble with the pacing in a spot or two, but the idea was very clever. :-)

I too had trouble with the pacing but I liked the idea! The most trouble I had was sitting through the original song!!!!

Like what Willow and Buffy did to Sunnydale?

I'm not sure I understand what the subject of this parody is....

Very clever, MM ..... you can give The Ring back to Gollum now!

Michael - Excellent choice for the ABC competitions. I liked this just as much on the reread.

Ditto with the rest: some pacing issues, but great parody nonetheless.

Barely know the original but still good job.

Michael - pretty good job here. Boy, the original bores me to death, though.

Serious cleverness here. I should have read this and pointed it out during your week.

I'm glad that none of George Strait's exes live in Austin, or I'm afraid you would have destroyed that too. (I'm a UT alum and love that town.) Good job.

To all: Sorry for getting behind, I wanted to catch up on voting and submitting my B and C parodies but the site is down. I hope to have all that done next weekend. I also have a parody of Misty which should be posted very soon. It's about being allergic to cats, which I'm not but I know people who are.-- MM
