The Lyrics
Rick Duncan-I so enjoyed your parody yesterday, I came up with one
also. This is dedicated to someone, they know who they are...
also. This is dedicated to someone, they know who they are...
Come and listen to my story
All you enterprising gents
Ladies too can listen up
It's all about some little mints
"Original Celebrated, Curiously Strong",
They've been around since King George III
On your tongue or someone else's
They will leave you tingling
Chorus:
They're made now by Callard and Bowser
packed up in little colored tins
Quite a burst of fresh sensation
Where you choose to put them, friend
I thought they were just some breath mints
Buying them don't take much dough
But a dear friend told me something
Everybody needs to know
They provide such sensual pleasure
If you should be that way inclined
I would like a demonstration
From that dear, sweet friend of mine
They're made now by Callard and Bowser
Packed up in little colored tins
Quite a burst of fresh sensation
Where you choose to put them, friend
I don't think this is the joy
That Van Beethoven spoke about
But I think he would be laughing
Somehow I don't have a doubt
Okay, now I'm fresh out of phrases
I'm gonna end this parody
Hail to Altoids, little breath mints
Use them oh so curiously!
All you enterprising gents
Ladies too can listen up

Wow. I think this is my first "inspiration" credit. (At least that anyone's admitted.) My wife and I like to put lyrics to classical works, but if there are no lyrics to begin with, it's not really a parody. We need to thank schiller for this exception.
Seid umschlungen, Millionene. Diesen Kuss der ganzen Welt! Der ganzen Welt! Bruder! etc... I want more! ;-)
How do you parody Ode to joy? lol
Rotten lungs for million smokers. This here pack has done me in. Has done me in, brother. There. That's more, neminem.
Minty-fresh and delicious!
Would those really be 'MALtoids' Royce? ;-)
A little hard to swallow Royce! Kidding!
