The Lyrics

You'll remember cheese
When it starts to move
Upon the piles of parsley

You forgot that scum
Now that cheese has eyes
And it walks on feet of mold

So put on your gloves
Hold your breath awhile
And grab that pile of parsley

That alarming smell -
Camembert stained brown -
With dung-like feet of mold

It will fight with you
As you wield your glove
Among the piles of parsley

Fight to get that scum
With its zealous eyes
'Cause it's now got feet of mold

I've never cleaned refrigerators
Yet there have been some that I've broken
But I swear I've never seen cheese
That walks on feet of mold
It walks on feet of mold

Many years had passed
Since that Camembert
Was placed upon that parsley
Now its children run -
See their scum eyes frown
Among their feet of mold

You'll remember these
Days of fighting cheese
On battlefields of parsley
You'll still smell that scum
With its zealous eyes
That once walked on feet of mold
That once walked on feet of mold
That once walked on feet of mold

Johnny D - Congratulations! This is a perfectly crafted parody!!! Seriously -- Not kidding at all!! You not only hit the pace & timing to the "nth" place, but even the vowel & consonant sounds WITHIN the words match up exactly. I can even picture it being sung in the same tone as the original, note-for-note. (Ah, I gush on, but I swear 'tis not perfidiously.) And yet it is very funny. Is there an award on the site for exceptional craftsmanship (craftpersonship )? Too bad not enough people appear to know the original, which is a shame. Actually I'm more familiar with the Eve Cassidy version on the "Songbird" album, but the pace and flow work with Sting's also. Oh, even more congrats are also slightly overdue as I see you have recently sailed on past 100 parodies and are now apparently taking dead aim on the next 100. I'm getting near 25. Will be posting #22 this evening. I've already got a special #25 cooling on the window sill, but I've got to come up with 23 & 24 before I can serve that one up.

Paul, Paul, Paaaaaaaaauuuuuul !!!! THANK you so much, dude. And congratulations, ahead of time, on your impending entrance into Amiright's "Top Submitter's Group". Thanks for the congrats on my 100+ postings - seems like only yesterday I found this wonderful site and posted "The Erection Of Edmund Fitzgerald", my first parody posting on Amiright.

Okay, took me awhile, but I finally caught your comment. I'd say I'm more of a Police fan, but I know this song...surprised it only has one vote??? The pacing is perfect. Not your funniest, but still very good (don't take that as a negative, take that as I like your stuff a lot, and would simply rate some of your others higher). 5-4-4.

Thank you, Jeff ! Absolutely OK, sir - I do not take your vote or comment as a negative at all - your vote and comment both show that you gave my parody genuine thought and consideration, and hey - that's all any of us can ask for on Amiright, isn't it ? I appreciate your frank and honest analysis. I depend on folks like you to help me get a reading about how my stuff comes across, so you've done me a favor - thanks again.

And thanks again to you, Paul - the contrast between your evaluation and Jeff's is very valuable for me to see - it's a reminder of how different people experience parodies in their own individual ways, from their own unique perspectives.

(ABC) The mush-mouth that Sting typically has in his solo oevre would work well with this...OK song. 544.

This should have mush, I mean much higher votes! 5's from me. Loved the 'now its children run' line!

Quite a Summoner's Tale. Fave (borrowed) line: "There have been some that I've broken."

Johnny D - Good choice for the (ABC) "F" contest. I'm not in that one and I voted back when you originally posted this in December. But I was pleased to be reminded of it by the contest comments and came back to revisit it. Glad it's finally getting some of the attention it has richly deserved all along.

Hey, JD - do you think that this is what was in Walter's fridge, then?
martha - June 06, 2004 - Report this comment
another spectacularly silly song fron Johnny....I really liked the "battlefields of parsley" line.....
2nz - June 06, 2004 - Report this comment
Nice one, JD. I was gonna go '4' on funny, but the last stanza got me. "You'll remember these - days of fighting cheese - On battlefields of parsley". Good, hearty chuckle. And if it beats us, the cheese truly will stand alone.

Thanks Philbo, martha, and 2nz. Philbo - yes indeed, I think Sir Walter jousted with The Black Knight of Stilton.
