Song Parodies -> "Stickman"

Original Song Title:

"Sickman"

^(MP3)

Original Performer:

"Stickman"

Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

Track #5 on the Dirt CD. The irony here is that Layne Staley was a very talented artist. I on the other hand am horrible at drawing. This parody is sung from an annoyed stick-figure (aka 'stickman') perspective. DKTOS? Sample here , lyrics here.

[intro]

Hey! (hey ...)

What the hell am I?
Figure drawn of lines!
Anatomic'ly!
Incorrect that's me!
Stickman...
Stickman, stickman, stickman...

Oh...........

I... don't.. own a bone.. and I've.. no.. hair.....
You... might.. draw me some.. I'm in... des..-pair.....

Ah...ah-ah-ah....ah,
You're no artist, oh my......

Ah...ah-ah-ah....ah,
Such is stick world of mine.....

Yeah (yeah ...)

What the hell am I?
Charcoal black on white
Graphite's all of me
2 dimensions seen
Stickman.....
Stickman, stickman, stickman.....

Argh!.............

I... can... see the pen... is in... the.. air....
I... won't... rest until.. I have... a.. pair!.....

Ah...ah-ah-ah....ah,
You're no artist, oh my......

Ah...ah-ah-ah....ah,
Such is stick world of mine.......

*Can.. you.. give.. me.. hands?...

Go.. draw.. me.. some.. pants...
[laughing]
Man.. you.. call.. that.. ar...-art?....

Scrib-ble-ling's not to hard......

[softly spoken part in background]
"Yeah, though I live on the paper it's shades of grey there,
All the time lines are blurred,
And erasure marks are many.
Those who are of good nature and intention,
But cannot draw worth a fark,
Do not give up your day jobs.
You've been warned:
Find a new hobby,
'cause you're lame,
Don't believe yet?"*

Ahh.....ah.....ah.....ah.....,
Ahh.....ah.....ah.....ah.....,
Oh...

Yeck! (yeck! ...)

What the hell am I?
One misshapen eye!
Feet are not applied!
Color is denied!
Stickman....
Is mad, is mad, so mad....

Ahh!.......................

My... aren't.. you.. obtuse... your 'ta...-lent' scares....
Now... you've.. messed.. me up... beyond.. repair....

Ah....ah-ah-ah...ah,
What's the diff'rence, that's life......

Ah....ah-ah-ah...ah,
In the stick world of mine.......

Ah....ah-ah-ah...ah
Ah....ah-ah-ah...ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah....ah-ah-ah...ah

Ah....ah-ah-ah-ah........

Oh, I thought you meant this was gonna come on the wednesday update, my mistake (but no problem). Good parody, and the concept kinda sticks to ya, I still remember the first time I saw "stick figure porno".

The sample wasn't enough for a vote at the moment, but this CD is on my list of ones to get, so I vote as soon as I can.

Still DKOTS after listening to the sample, but it's hillarious, I also can't draw worth crap, so 5's and I feel his pain!

Listened to the song several times before I came in(I need to get internet at home sometime this year), 555. I'll get to the others from this album(and the ones I missed from Facelift) throughout this month.

(ART) Finally found the OS, it's now one of my favorites, and this song still simply blows me away

sad to say I DKTOS but your phrasing almost brings the song to me, Jack - all the rhyming works and everything - and big kudos for the idea - a stick figure paying out on his creator is a genius idea - 555

Methinks thou hast penned The National Anthem of Flatland. ;-)
