A big fan of music parodies, my favorite artist is Weird Al. With songs like "My Bologna," "Eat It," and "Amish Paradise," I find his work very amusing. So I have to ask: What is your favorite parody song, and who is it by?
 
As huge fan of Dr. Demento in the 70s there are so many but few are true parodies and Weird Al is the king, of his I think of Another One Rides The Buss, was very on topic during the first energy crisis. There is as a Trecker Star Dreck...
 
Just a while ago, I replied to a post from a member named furry121, and they asked about my blindness. I told them about my artificial eye, and that got me thinking, "Hey! Maybe I should write a parody to the BG's "Staying Alive."" Now the reason why I thought that is because I mentioned a situation, quite a comical, but bizarre one, that occurred one night in a crowded theater. My friend, who I will call Carol, asked me to go to the movies with her, and I agreed. Little did I know that the movie she was going to pick out would be a sad one, but there I was, in the middle of the crowd, and the waterworks started. Now this I swear on the moon and the stars. I don't know if any of you have ever seen artificial eyes, better known as "conformers." I will describe it the best I can here. It is basically a slick, hard acrylic replica of one's own eyeball, but the back side of the ball is scooped out. The reason for this is because it rides on a bulge of muscle, behind which is an implant of porous polyethylene. Well, this night at the movies made me realize that no more can I watch sappy movies. When acrylic gets a little too wet, well, it gets slippery, and thus, I literally cried my frickin' eye out. So below are the lyrics to my BG's parody, "Cried My Eye Out."

Last night a good friend asked me if I would go down town and watch a show with her,
and when we got there, man I didn't know that the one she chose would start the waterworks.

Now I don't know
if I'm okay
after what happened yesterday.
I was sittin' there
in that chair,
and then it happened this I swear.

The tears started drippin' the acrylic started slippin'
and I cried my eye out, cried my eye out.
My poor heart was breakin' as from laughter she was shakin'
when I cried my eye out, cried my eye out.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, cried my eye out, cried my eye out.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, cried my eye out...

That's the farthest I got on it, but I think you all might want to help me out. If you come up with some comical lines, please post them in your comments.

"Amish Paradise,"

The video for that one definitely impresses me. There's a rather lengthy sequence where the footage is obviously being played in reverse, and yet Yankovic's own movements including his lips are normal, meaning that he performed his own part, including lip-syncing, in reverse. Quite a feat!

I don't know that I really have a favorite, and I don't listen to parody songs that often, but I do find Weird Al's work pretty amusing. There's also music that would be better classified as satire, and that I also enjoy. A great example would be the opening theme of Spaceballs. I love that movie, and the music is such a great over-the-top cheesy mashup of everything from Star Wars to Blade Runner.

Update: I changed the nam e a bit to make the parody sort-of fall in line with "Staying Alive." It is "Cried Out My Eye." I also added more lyrics, and they are as follows:

and when we got there man I didn't know
that the one she chose would start the waterworks.

Now I don't know

I was sittin' there
in that chair,
and then it happened this I swear.

The tears started drippin'
the acrylic was a-slippin'
and I cried out my eye, cried out my eye.
Despite our hearts a-breakin'
we were laughin' and a-shakin'
when I cried out my eye, cried out my eye.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, cried out my eye, cried out my eye.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, cried out my eye...

There was no way for to be discrete
after she let loose with a hearty laugh,
and yes everybody's attention was turned on us
and they saw it all, brother that's a fact..

The truth is now
I'm not okay.
I was embarrassed yesterday.
I was sittin' there
in that chair,
and then it happened this I swear.

The tears started drippin'
the acrylic was a-slippin'
and I cried out my eye, cried out my eye.
Despite our hearts a-breakin'

Ha, ha, ha, ha, cried out my eye, cried out my eye.
Ha, ha, ha, ha, cried out my eye...

I won't go to another show... So girl don't ask me.
No don't you ask me.
I won't go to another show... So girl don't ask me.
No don't you ask me.

Ah yes, the old standby 'Leprosy' to the tune of 'Yesterday' from the Beatles.

Leprosy,
Body parts keep falling off of me,
I'm not half the man I used to be,
Since leprosy took part of me.

Why they had to go
Fingers and toes
They wouldn't stay.
I did something wrong
Now they're gone,
From leprosy-y-y-y
 
🎶 Happy squawking, squawking, happy squawk.
Squawk about the the things you like to do......🎶
A cheep parroty, I know, but I'm not going to top my previous (especially, Coat Of Tater Peelings) and I want to give others a chance, for the sake of parroty.

There's a parody of The Logical Song by Supertramp about the 1970's gas shortage that I heard once or twice "back in the day" on Dr. Demento. But google can't seem to find it. :geek:
 
For those of my generation ;)

When I was young
All the gas was so plentiful
Bountiful, oh, liberal
My tank was full

And all the pumps on the street
They would dangle so happily
Joyfully, oh, playfully filling me

And then a shortage arose
And I tried to be sensible
Logical, economical, responsible

And now they doubled the price
Filling up can be ludicrous
Ridiculous, I get furious
Impestious

There are lines that
Stretch across the land
How much can we withstand
They're holding back the fuel

So instead, in traffic jams I fight
Crouched on my sister's bike
I really look the fool

I said watch where you park
Cause they siphon in after dark
What a lark, oh, and when you start
There's just a spark

And if you run in line
You'll be pushed out in double time
And soon you'll find, oh, you'll
Be behind the last car sign

Oh, pump it, pump it
Pump it, yeah

Don't you think
It's getting out of hand
Pumping out with a gas can
Don't tell me it's all gone

They say odds and
Evens will see a few
Please tell me what to do
The lines are far too long

That's it - I was thinking it was called The Practical Song. Thank you. 🤗

My association to your story would have been "Eye of the tiger" by Survivor. I'm not a native speaker, so my attempt may contain mistakes. Feel free to correct me! (I wouldn't have dared to joke about it if you hadn't gone first, I hope you won't mind)

Original:
It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all with the eye of the tiger

It's the eye of acrylic
That gets filled when you cry
Filling up the hollow behind your eyeball
And the last drop of weeping
lets it slip out of its site
And she's laughing cause you lost your eye of acrylic

OMG! LMAO! OMG! That is so funny! I think I will add this in a future track on an album of parodies. Thank you for the idea.

I have the parody finished. I changed a couple things in your chorus lines you sent me to make it flow smoothly. I hope you like it.

Eye of Acrylic (Parody of Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger")

Friday Night, my good old friend
asked me to go and see a movie
was not prepared for the assault on my heart
let alone what it'd do to my fake eye

The show was sad, had us by the hearts
The tears were flowing just like rivers
and all the sudden something slides down my cheek
I realized I'd just cried out my right eye.

It's the eye of acrylic
That gets filled when I cry
Filling up the hollow behind my eyeball
And the last drop of weeping
lets it slip out its site
And she's laughing cause I lost my eye of acrylic

Polligrip, made for false teeth
wish it was also made for fake eyes
secure the thing inside the hole in my head
so I wouldn't have to lose it if I cry

It's the eye of acrylic
That gets filled when I cry
Filling up the hollow behind my eyeball
And the last drop of weeping
lets it slip out its site
And she's laughing cause I lost my eye of acrylic

Another day, man it's so sad
I close my right eye as I'm crying
Open the thing, it's like the Hoover dam breaks
the sudden gush sends my fake eye across the room

It's the eye of acrylic
That gets filled when I cry
Filling up the hollow behind my eyeball
And the last drop of weeping
lets it slip out its site
And she's laughing cause I lost my eye of acrylic

I do, and I'm glad you could use it as an inspiration. We need a band to record it.

If you like homemade parodies like this, you might also want to take a look at this collection of ADISC themed lyrics.

Other than that, I happen to like literal music videos that base their lyrics on what happens in them, like these examples (there are more to find):

 
Personally a huge fan of parody songs.

Even dabbled in a few.

Personal fave would be amateur transplants.

Also love a drag artist called Willam who does amazing parodies.

It just dawned on me. I have the original fake eye I cried out back in 2009. I don't have that problem because I have a thicker eye. I think it would be cool if I could make a music video with help and get that thinner eye to fall out of my head. I think that would be so hilarious.
 
I wonder if any of the Adisc moderators have read the lyrics to my song and what they think of them.
