The Lyrics
I would just like to say that this song was a bitch to parody. I swear there are about 26 more words in the lyrics than it sounds like on the song. So I counted syllables very carefully. Anyway...it's pretty self-explanatory...
I'm always losing my car keys
I never dot my I's
Sometimes I forget meanings of words
like demise and surmise
I'll be in the middle of a chat
and forget what I just said
I'm glad my shoulders are attached
Otherwise I'm sure I'd
lose my head
Dumb things I say
I try but they just give me away
Dumb things I say
The Absentminded Girl
I miss exits on the freeway
More often than someone should
Maybe when I was young
I took one too many hits off that bong
It's a wonder I still breathe
and know to get out of bed
You'd think someday I'd realize
the difference between my
ass and head
Dumb things I say
I try but they just give me away
Dumb things I say
The Absentminded Girl
Seemingly brainless, don't mean
that I'm aimless
every day I really try
to get my shit together more
I still have good times
with the brain cells I have left
we always get along quite well
the cells and I
and it's a good thing that
I kick ass cause it does seem
that this world has it in for me
"What was that again?"

One of my favourite songs of all time given the 'Loca treatment....very, very fine 555
Great work here! I agree - I tried parodying this song, titled "Just Down a Sleeping Pill" but gave up due to its overall "bitchyness". Just getting this one completed gets high scores from me!
Thanks Kristof and Emiloca!
Ash...did I call you by the wrong name? I think I did!! That's the second time I've done it this week...gotta stop drinking outta gas tanks. Anyway, lets try again....ASH, this rocked!!!! 555
No need to apologize Kristof - you're taking to the Absentminded Girl, remember?
I was gonna say...the 'Loca treatment?
This only being able to get on during my lunch hour is KILLING my Amiright social life. I'm so behind. This was awesome, Ashkicksass...I can definitely relate!! 555!!
That was great! I sometimes feel........ What was I talking about? I think I'm gonna give that a 5-5-? I forgot. I know I have said this before but you really DO kickass!!!!!
Thanks Arwen and Cookie-man! I must say though, I'm a little disppointed that no one caught my demise/surmise reference!
I totally caught it! Sheesh.
Actually, Kristof was talking to the absent minded girl. I guess omitting the L from "talking" qualifies as absentmindedness as well.
Well duh.
You don't put out nowhere near as much as you comment, new parodies that is, so I decided to seek out an old one and give it a look, here's some believeable 5s.
Thanks Know 1. I know I don't post that often - I guess I have a better time reading them than writing them. But I'll have more up soon enough...
directed here by K1's comment today, Ash. very funny, absentminded girl - that would be a good name for a band - 555 -(the title alone earned these)
I know I read this, thought I commented...excellent, funny, haunting... =)
