Parody Written by:

The Lyrics
Sung by a desperately sad little 5 year old boy, trying to look on the bright side....
Time for bed, as day does end
I cuddle my stiff, furry friend
So nighty-night, dead stuffed raccoon
My birthday gift from dad last June
I prayed to God that I'd recieve
A kitten, puppy; pet that breathed
I weren't surprised, dead stuffed raccoon
My fam'ly's poor (and dad's a loon....)
Hi-de-hi, dead stuffed raccoon
Sometimes used to dust my room
I buy you pet food you don't chew
And sitting still's no stretch for you
You're moving faster now, because
You've got four wheels nailed to your paws
My loyal companion, once exhumed
A slightly ripe dead stuffed raccoon!
Nighty-night, flea-bitten corpus
Full of love and full of sawdust
Dead pet makes my sister retch
I throw you sticks that you can't fetch
Your rodent-catching skills ain't great
But what a brilliant paperweight!
Insides dug out with a spoon
Why oh why, dead stuffed raccoon?
99 miles you have journeyed
From Bob's Discount Taxidermy
Nicely mounted, but mon dieu!
Next door's beagle mounted you!
You help uncle buff his car
And keep the kitchen door ajar
Sun sets in late afternoon
So nighty-night, dead stuffed raccoon...
[Slow, sad bit]
Bye-de-bye, my rigid chum
You belong in a museum
Father got a better job
He's gone out to buy a dog, so
In a glass box you'll be dwellin'
Freshly stuffed to stop you smellin'
Don't be glum, it's good, don't knock it
Your grandpa "knew" Davy Crockett....
I cuddle my stiff, furry friend
So nighty-night, dead stuffed raccoon
My birthday gift from dad last June
I prayed to God that I'd recieve
A kitten, puppy; pet that breathed
I weren't surprised, dead stuffed raccoon
My fam'ly's poor (and dad's a loon....)
Hi-de-hi, dead stuffed raccoon
Sometimes used to dust my room
I buy you pet food you don't chew
And sitting still's no stretch for you
You're moving faster now, because
You've got four wheels nailed to your paws
My loyal companion, once exhumed
A slightly ripe dead stuffed raccoon!
Nighty-night, flea-bitten corpus
Full of love and full of sawdust
Dead pet makes my sister retch
I throw you sticks that you can't fetch
Your rodent-catching skills ain't great
But what a brilliant paperweight!
Insides dug out with a spoon
Why oh why, dead stuffed raccoon?
99 miles you have journeyed
From Bob's Discount Taxidermy
Nicely mounted, but mon dieu!
Next door's beagle mounted you!
You help uncle buff his car
And keep the kitchen door ajar
Sun sets in late afternoon
So nighty-night, dead stuffed raccoon...
[Slow, sad bit]
Bye-de-bye, my rigid chum
You belong in a museum
Father got a better job
He's gone out to buy a dog, so
In a glass box you'll be dwellin'
Freshly stuffed to stop you smellin'
Don't be glum, it's good, don't knock it
Your grandpa "knew" Davy Crockett....

I think you and Agrimorfee are "Lost In Translation".
I don't know about being lost, but he's going to find quite a few fives. And get this: The security code was "V99." You can't make this stuff up.
Perfect mix of sentiment and humor...the taxidermy reference struck me particularly funny, since my exes cousin is one and his name is Bob.. great stuff, Kristof
My family has a stuffed loon, maybe he can sit on the mantle with your rigid chum. This is yet another that begs for recording.
I thought taxidermy was when a dermatologist worked out of a cab. But anyway, let me stuff some 5's in your ballot box for this brilliant piece of parody.
This was awesome, 5s
stuffed with fun lines
Rex, that joke was unfare. But I still think this parody was the stuff that dreams are made of.
Matthias: Danke, mein guter Freund. Ich wünsche Scarlet Johannsen mich mit Kindern versehen. Bitte bitte bitte!
Mike: No way! Cheers, dude...
AFW: NO WAY! (again...) Thanks for the kind words
McKludge: Yeah, I might record this; it'd be a lot of fun! p.s. I want NOTHING to do with your loon. ;-)
Rex: *groan* ;-)
Jack ansd Al: Sie sind beides sehr freundliches!
Mike, Pt. II: *grooooaaaan!!* :-) Thank you, buddy.

Well, Kristof, you have been very supportive of me, so I had to stop by and check this out. . .you've actually been supportive more than you know, but you'll find that out eventually. . .anyhow. . ."Your grandpa "knew" Davy Crockett" threw an unexpected element in there at the end, good job. . .parodies like this is why it's ok for me to write serious parodies:)
When you started out with 'My stiff, furry friend", I thought this was gonna be like one of mine....luckily, you took the higher road, and much the better for it! The "Discount taxidermy" line and the beagle mount are pure genius.
Very Good Mr K! I was about to comment on the pacing as I had a slight problem with it, but figured out how it paced with the OS, so 555s for you.
GV: Thanks for stopping by, mate
Dee: Your "friend" is furry? TMI!!!
Jase: If you were pacing this to the English version, it wouldn't scan at all: the two versions are VERY different. Cheers for your support, buddy!

absolutely LOL stuff Kristof - a "pet that breathed" should not be too much for a 5yo boy to ask - and shame on that beagle! abs. hilarious- 555
Good stuff.
You are a sick, sick puppy - and I don't think I've laughed so hard at anything for ages! Top marks and nothing less!
(ABC) Matched to the German version with perfection, virtually every line a giggler!
One of your most out there ideas Kristof, and there's plenty of songs in your collection that I would consider to be out there, this one was without a doubt original, and an original idea is always great for comedy.
555 Sir Kristof, for this cute witty ditty: loved the reference to ~ Mr Fess Parker~ who played the TV raccooned cap wearer! I prefer the Stetson myself . . . But I do love raccoon tails, which I would tie to the Campagna Bros saddles, flying in the NorCAL wind . . .
(ABC4N) You dissed your dad and called him a loon when he gave you such a practicle gift. You explained in the parody that it had many uses. I'd say at least 99 luft-ful uses. As usual you have done it again Kristof. I must say well done.
(ABC4N) Having already read this one, I can say it still has such a surreally funny ring to it, and the rhyming is just superb.
(ABC4) Man, the way you consistently write incredibly awesome parodies just blows my mind. Well done, 555, you should know the drill by now.
(ABC4-N) Seriously awesome, Kristof. Lots of great rhymes for "raccoon" as well. I'm still going to finish my "Dead Kitten" parody, though now I'll have to avoid using any of your great ideas (loved "Sometimes used to dust my room"). 555
(ABC4) you never fail to come up with a dozen gags that make me LOL, Kristof
(ABC4N)Great idea...Great jokes...Great rhymes
Another Kristofian masterpiece...
