The Lyrics
Although I appear to have made it to 3K, I’m actually 9 short. Mostly due to my carelessness, 9 of my parodies are duplicated. So I’m working on correcting the situation tomorrow. Then a break to recharge my parody batteries and engage in a movie marathon for a project I’m planning. Hasta la vista, parodistas.
I’m gonna quell the tunes—
’ least for a while.
I’ve gone nonstop for many moons
And I’m tiring
From the perspiring.
You know, I’ve been crankin’,
For six years, ’em out.
So now I am thankin’
All who managed to scan what I’d flout.
But, gonna quell the tunes—
’ least for a while;
Meanwhile. . .
Gotta do
Just a few
More, no slew.
What ensued. . .don’t know how:
There’s nine, on there,
Duplicates I see,
So I vow
To beef up,
Before I quell the tunes,
My streaming pile.
’ least for a while.
I’ve gone nonstop for many moons
And I’m tiring
From the perspiring.
You know, I’ve been crankin’,
For six years, ’em out.
So now I am thankin’
All who managed to scan what I’d flout.
But, gonna quell the tunes—
’ least for a while;
Meanwhile. . .
Gotta do
Just a few
More, no slew.
What ensued. . .don’t know how:
There’s nine, on there,
Duplicates I see,
So I vow
To beef up,
Before I quell the tunes,
My streaming pile.

Wow!, Like who knew, dude? No need to try to push nine in a day. Nine in a WEEK is really stretching for most of us. ;D
Pirate Jack de Barrow, alias ~Colonel uberSchlong ~ . . . you, Sir, are ' short a 9-iron ' ? ? ?
OMR: Thanks, but I'm at a fever pitch for one more day.
UKD: I'm short a whole golf cart.
UKD: I'm short a whole golf cart.
ONLY NINE! That should take you about NINE minutes, John. Looking froward to them..
