The Lyrics
This is for Decathlon: Mark 2, since "Tearin' Up My Heart" is on the N*Sync album "*NSYNC" which Wikipedia defines as Pop/Dance.
I’m selling body parts
Cause I need cash
I even sold my heart and my mustache
For a thousand bucks or two
I’ll sell my brain
Pricey, cause unused
Leper’s dealing his right hand
Just made a million dollars
And if this stuff’s in demand
Selling for lots of money
Buy my chin!
Or my toe
The nails aren’t curled!
(I need dough)
Auctioning off my knees
You can’t find this in a store!!!
I’m yanking off my nose
For a few bucks
I wish I wasn’t broke, but hey life sucks
On my arm there’s a tattoo
You can obtain
For $12.82
Babe, I’m not a masochist
(Not a masochist)
This is not for pleasure
All my credit cards are trash
(Credit cards are trash…)
Money is low. I keep running out of cash
Sure there’s dole
But instead I found a loophole
Cause right now life’s a breeze
If you stomach blood and gore!!!
I’m chopping off my lips
Look on eBay
A hundred million hits in just one day
You think that I have loose screws, and I’m insane
Finance problem’s through
Sold for cash my foot and mole
Shopping cart holds my wrist too
And my bladder and my tooth
I gave the bank
To pay off my dues
Sold my body parts for gold
Wasn’t smart, and now I’m screwed
Cause my doctor said, “They need to be replaced”
Figures he reviewed
I’m buying back my butt
The price I paid
Is doubled by some nut, I’m feeling played
Since I sold my manhood too, It needs replaced
But it ain’t like new
If you’re broke then simply sue
Don’t play the game
“Selling parts of you”
Cause I need cash
I even sold my heart and my mustache
For a thousand bucks or two
I’ll sell my brain
Pricey, cause unused
Leper’s dealing his right hand
Just made a million dollars
And if this stuff’s in demand
Selling for lots of money
Buy my chin!
Or my toe
The nails aren’t curled!
(I need dough)
Auctioning off my knees
You can’t find this in a store!!!
I’m yanking off my nose
For a few bucks
I wish I wasn’t broke, but hey life sucks
On my arm there’s a tattoo

For $12.82
Babe, I’m not a masochist

This is not for pleasure
All my credit cards are trash

Money is low. I keep running out of cash
Sure there’s dole
But instead I found a loophole
Cause right now life’s a breeze
If you stomach blood and gore!!!

Mathias, very good, Sir . A little scary, but funny. In RedChina this is a reality; they don't even use anestetic to harvest the organs! OUCH!
Very good write Matty, I will save my in depth review for the round, but nothing glaring caught my eye like the previous round did. . .which is a good thing.
LOVED IT! Not the OS though, the parody,5a
(Dec 2.0) Clearly one of the more desperate get-rich-quick schemes. Brilliant job, Matthias!
(Dec 2) A bit more comic-horror than surreal, but it works.
See above!
(Dec 2.8) Whoa, mama! This is off the radar, Matty. Here's three 5s for whatever's left of you....
Decathlon...no offense, Matthias...but if I found your lips (or any other random body part) for sale on ebay...pretty sure I wouldn't be bidding. ; ) Crazy stuff!
(dec2.8) liked it, matty, and it raises some pertinent points - does a limb with a mole cost more than one without (given you're getting extra), and what would the going rate be for used tattoos? - funny idea, and some great invention here - 555
(Dec2) Quite original Matty as I told you over the phone, and the OS is just meant to sing a long to--this one would be fun to sing (though I won't say perform)
I gotta hand it to you, this was great for the part!
(ABC05I)
Matt - you better pull yourelf together. There are better ways of getting your bills paid. Just ask for a bailout. I actually liked all the parts of this parody. Well done.

"For a thousand bucks or two/I'll sell my brain/Pricey, cause unused" Awesome lines, and a great way to start off a hilarious parody. I'll give you $555 for the hands in which you typed this parody. Unless you need those.
Enjoyed this one - put on OS and then sang along with words above - makes it even more entertaining. Hope you had choreographed dancing with it.
ABC: Excellent job! Never would have thought of this idea, very funny!
(ABC) out of the surreal realm and placed where it is now, I like it better for some reason...
Great
(ABC) yes, I'm quite fond of this one, Matty - see above - but if I sold my butt I don't think I'd be buying it back again - who knows where it's been? and I reckon there might be a few other butts out there that could be better value for money
(ABC5I) See above!
(ABC) I loved that you took a modern day ethical controversy and milked it for all it was worth!!!...Great job on the pacing, rhymes, humor and everything else!!!...555!!!
Yeah, still think this one is really funny Matt--I won't make any small gripes, you know I think highly of this one. What inspired you to do this song. . .I forget, we had talked about it--and I know I had done it back in my 'original 14', but I don't think that had anything to do with it--regardless, great job.
This could be a big hit in Asia! Funny stuff, Matt.
I love the idea, Matty. Excellent job !
This reminds me (for some strange reason) of an old joke...
Tourist to a woodchopper: " Please tell me, how old is that ax you are using ?"
Woodchopper to tourist: "Why, this ax is more than 100 years old. It's only had 3 heads and 8 handles"

I could just post "See Above!" but I'll give it a bit more thorough review. It's a great work and you have done a wonderful job of deconstructing. You know how some people say something about some "selling themselves"? Except in this case, this is a bit more literal. No manhood is needed to give this pieces of work 555 parts, used or unused.
Very inventive, adds a whole new meaning to telling a girl you're giving her your heart...
I dont remember this at all from the ABC round...apparently I liked it more then than I do now...many lines that just seemed off to me. Well it was 4 years ago, I think you have matured a lot in your writing. 545
(Artistry) See above...again!
Looks like I made my token bad pun comment awhile back. Fun song, glad to read again.
