The Lyrics
ZZ is for Zombies?
White skin, blue nose
And I don't shower so my odour's gross
Slit throat, foamed bile
I just lost a moldy eye-ay-ay
You're all screaming just as loud as you can
Cos everyone's frightened by this undead man!
Old rash, dead man's hand
Could use grooming, for a thousand grand
My IQ's, gone an'
When I'm in fights I cannot count to ten
You're all running for a shotgun to hand
Cos everyone's frightened by this undead man!
Gangrene, eyes red
I don't give a damn, my body's dead
Fast raids, blood bath
Razor teeth, tricks for a laugh
We're such actors on the bourgeoiscene
Come everyone, play along on Halloween!
And I don't shower so my odour's gross
Slit throat, foamed bile
I just lost a moldy eye-ay-ay
You're all screaming just as loud as you can
Cos everyone's frightened by this undead man!
Old rash, dead man's hand
Could use grooming, for a thousand grand
My IQ's, gone an'
When I'm in fights I cannot count to ten
You're all running for a shotgun to hand
Cos everyone's frightened by this undead man!
Gangrene, eyes red
I don't give a damn, my body's dead
Fast raids, blood bath
Razor teeth, tricks for a laugh
We're such actors on the bourgeoiscene
Come everyone, play along on Halloween!

From the first line I thought this was about Michael Jackson - ABC "U" have anything to do with the title? - great work - 555
Great Halloween parody, Peter.
5s for the gangrene/bourgeoiscene/Halloween rhyme.
I kind of guessed this was coming... must have been something you said :-) Nice one, k1chyd
Great job!
Stuart: No ABC, for this Zomb-ii, but I was actually considering a Michael Jackson / "Thriller" punchline at the end before I came up with the Hallowen joke. I could even have kept the "White glove" part from the original. You're on to me! ;-)
Johnny: Glad you liked it, I'm getting in the spirit here.
John: I think "bourgeoiscene" is only the second word I have ever invented/created in English. Google gives zero hits for it so I'm taking the credit! :-) Glad you liked it. ("Georgelucasy" was the first, in another forum, to describe really crappy movie dialogue between two people in love).
Phil: I kind of guessed you were gonna say that! :-P
AKA: Thank you! There's one more ZZ-Zombie parody up today if you're interested; "We need brains, all right" to the tune of "I need you tonight".

Maybe some viagra will bring him back to life. Thanks for your comments and vote. 5's for you.
Floyd, Peregrin: Thanx for commenting.
Lionel(?): Viagra can only revitalize, not resurrect, if it could I wouldn't have had to issue this health warning:

Viagra actually could help in a reserection! Nice parody.
SOTM-dktos so i can't really comment but i guess tis good if u got such good ratings right?
(SOTM) DKTOS but the read was spooktacular.
(SOTM) Missed this first time round...very good. 555
Not bad...just coming back to this one.
Doesn't just the appearance of ZZ Top suggest Halloween?
(SOTM) Scary
(SOTM) I'm still diggin' it!
Eye-ay-ay dug it too
SOTM--I missed this one the first time around, K1...nice work!
Good parody - very good last two lines.
(SOTM) We're such actors on the bourgeoiscene - nice one, K1!!
it's funny how MJs - because of the Thriller video - has seeped into the collective unconscious as being an archetypical halloween image ....... nice one K1chyd... as the others daid great last 2 lines
(SOTM) See above!
Great work, Peter. I regret to announce you just missed my top three, but I enjoyed this!
SOTM...5's...good Halloween parody
This would make a sweet video. I like the first verse particularlye-ay-ay.
DKTOS, which sucks cause this looks like it makes good use of the original. Still enjoyed it K1chyd (Killed 1s can hunt you dead)
(SOTM) DKTOS, but it works quite well if you sing it to the tune of "Addicted to Love" (well, sort of) ;-)
(SOTM) - This ZZ's my top...5's...excellent work. ~ ~ ~
Very good...see above!
Scares me......on this song
Fived thee....all the way!!!
Fived thee....all the way!!!
