Subject: New Parody Game

Written By: DarkJon64 on 07/07/02 at 11:47 a.m.

Hey, I have decided to start a mini-contest thing of my own. For this one, you have to write a parody based on given information, like an original song, and a basic topic. I'll try and make a new one every week.

Post them right in this thread with your name and your title for the song.

Ok, this week is gonna be a broad one, use the following:

Any Red Hot Chili Peppers song
Topic: Chinese food


All entries will be judged by me and a few others, send me an email if you would like to be a judge: darkjon64@hotmail.com. Judges can write parodies for this but will not be eligible to win. Anyway, hope to hear some funny ones soon!

I think it would probably be easiest to just submit them to the site and post the link here once they make it up there.. of course the problem with that is, entries submitted on the weekend might not make it up until the following monday or tuesday

it would've been much easier if it were chinese food songs with billy joel as the artist to parody since i already wrote one of those but since its chili peppers i started one today should be done tonight or tomorrow and i'll submit it to the site like chucky said. P.S. how do you link to a song?

PS I've just submitted "Crispy Aromatic Duck" to the tune of "Under The Bridge", a homage to my favourite Chinese dish.

Here's my latest contribution, maybe you'll find some inspiration in it... in the perspective of a frog!

"Ribbit away" by DarkJon64
parody of "Give It Away" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers

Well I got to got to hop out of the kitchen
Well I got to got to hop out of the dishes
Well I got to got to hop out of the lobster
If I stay here to long I'll be-a cooked in boiling water

What I got you want to get it with a Wanton
What I got you want to get it with a Wanton
What I got you want to get it with a Wanton
Leave us all alone now we don't want to be munched on

Realize that I should have been-a wiser
But now I'm just an appetizer
Roast Me with another Budweiser
How come everybody wanna eat me on a kaiser?

Ribbit away ribbit away ribbit away now
Ribbit away ribbit away ribbit away now
Ribbit away ribbit away ribbit away now
I can tell you you'll be croakin' like a frogger

Greedy little people all come here for eatin'
But they don't know how we're treated
Unimpressed by the way we're all beated
They just 'please wait to be seated'

Long tongue and I pack a little know how
Order some piggies or a beef cow
But still its frog legs and a Kung Pao
Now you gotta change your mind, like right now

Chop suey with a bit of hot sauce
Chop suey with a salad been tossed
Chop suey with your Egg Fu Yung
Now they chop me like I'm Chicken Chow or Dim Sung

Ribbit away ribbit away ribbit away now
Ribbit away ribbit away ribbit away now
Ribbit away ribbit away ribbit away now
Oooooooh.... Oh yeah!

Ribbit away ribbit away ribbit away now
Ribbit away ribbit away ribbit away now
Ribbit away ribbit away ribbit away now
I can tell you you'll be croakin' like a frogger

Look at me swimming in your lemon iced tea
Dancin' down on your plate of chop suey
Come and drink me up from your hot Chinese Tea
Order a bucket of froggies just like me

The mom she order froggy dumpling
Long gone is daddy's tray of toad-rings
Feelin' good now brother wanna chug me
Drinkin' frog juice they told you it was iced tea

Long ago I was born in a river
Nice and warm I would not shiver
But now they keep me in container
Call before 6 and you get free deliver

Ribbit away ribbit away ribbit away now
Ribbit away ribbit away ribbit away now
Ribbit away ribbit away ribbit away now
I can tell you you'll be croakin' like a frogger

OK, if you want them here, here goes:

Aromatic Crispy Duck
Parody of "Under the Bridge" by RHCP

Sometimes I feel like I don't want to cook, no
Sometimes I feel like I wanna buy
A take-out, a Chinese, a duck with some pancakes
Lovely to taste mmm together we fry

I spread on my pancakes the sweetness of hoi sin
I spread it on carefully, just the right amount
Never too much, and never too little
It isn't one taste it's the balance that counts

 Well, I don't ever want to eat no rubbish anyway
 Takeaway that I love, eat it all today
 Well, I don't ever want to eat no rubbish anyway
 Takeaway that I love, eat it all today

After the hoi sin, add some spring onions
Fragrant and spicy, piquant and cheap
Some fresh green cucumber, it adds to the texture
Now add the duck, yeah, together we eat

 Well, I don't ever want to eat no rubbish anyway
 Takeaway that I love, eat it all today
 Well, I don't ever want to eat no rubbish anyway
 Takeaway that I love, eat it all today
 Oh yum, yum, yum, yeah, yeah
 Love it, I say, yeah yeah

Aromatic crispy duck
Is the best thing to eat

Aromatic crispy duck
It cannot be beat

Aromatic crispy duck
Tasty, sharp and sweet

Aromatic crispy duck
It makes my life complete

No, I just love crispy aromatic duck: I'm lucky that the takaway 200m down the road sells it (quite a lot of takeaways don't, for some reason).  Your timing was perfect, also: my wife and I had a half a duck between us on Friday ;-)

Thanks

90s Song Parodies -> Chinese Food (PREVIEW)

"Scar Tissue" Originally by Red Hot Chili Peppers
"Chinese Food" Parody by lebeiW15

Thanks to DarkJon64 for the topic idea.

Chinese food I shouldn't have had
The eggrolls tasted kind of bad
Close your eyes and open your mouth 'cause
With you I'll share
With you I'll share
This Chinese food
With you I'll share
This Chinese food

I want take-out Chinese food
Kentucky-Fried Chicken just ain't as good
Spillin' all over myself
This stuff can't be good for my health and
With you I'll share
This Chinese food...

Eating eggrolls in a box
I'm getting as fat as an ox
Open your mouth and your jaw 'cause
With you I'll share
With you I'll share
This Chinese food
With you I'll share
This Chinese food

I think I've got a broken jaw
Order take-out from the mall
I could eat and eat till fall
I'll order some more food, if I don't, you'll bawl 'cause
With you I'll share
This Chinese food...

Chinese food I shouldn't have had
The eggrolls tasted kind of bad
Close your eyes and open your mouth 'cause
With you I'll share
With you I'll share
This Chinese food
With you I'll share
This Chinese food

sorry I've been having trouble replying. Me and STG are judging as we speak, should have results very soon! I really like all of them. As for what the winner would 'win', I cant really think of anything, any ideas? Preferabbly something free that can be done over the internet:P

       "Chinatown" - "Under the Bridge" - Mike Armstrong

Sometimes I feel like I need an egg roll,
Sometimes I feel like I need chow mein,
In an awkward container,
With a couple of chopsticks,
As hungry as I am,
I'll need a buffet....

I drive down the street,
To Ling's Chinese Diner,
I open the door,
And smell the fried rice,
I eat all my noodles,
And load them with soy sauce,
I go back for seconds,
And that ain't a lie....

I don't wanna never leave,
I just want Chinese food,
But I'm gonna have to stop,
Cuz passing gas is rude..... rude, rude

It's hard to believe that, they're out of chicken,
It's hard to believe, what my fortune says,
My new lucky numbers, are eighteen and twenty,
That little piece of paper, brightens my day.

I don't wanna never leave,
I just want Chinese food,
But I'm gonna have to stop,
Cuz passing gas is rude...

Get food in Chinatown,
It's where they cook it well,
Get food in Chinatown,
You'll be lured in by the smell.

since every other entry was posted here too here's mine

"Around The World" Originally by Red Hot Chili Peppers
"Around New York" Parody by Tone-Def

this is for the chinese food contest.

All around new york
One thing's the same
They think its fun to chow
On shrimp lo mein

Came from the east
Went across lots of water
Now you can eat
What everybody oughtta

If you don't like hot
Food I'll tell you now
Stay away
From General Tso

Some boneless spare ribs
Just went on my plate
There's no doubt
They are really great

I know, I know for sure
There is good Chinese food around new york
I know, I know that's true
You say Gai Pan and then I say moo goo

In NYC
It is always nice
To get a whole pint of
Chicken fried rice

Unless you
Are really dumb
You'll eat an egg roll
Or you'll order dim sum

When you are there
I think you should make a
Stop at a
Take out place in Jamaica

I like my rice
Either white or brown not fried
Just like they do
In the upper west side

I know, I know for sure
There is good Chinese food around new york
I know, I know that's true
You say Gai Pan and then I say moo goo

If you wanna get
Lots of food from the east
Come and follow me
we'll have a feast

We can eat
Some real good food all day
If we get our
Chinese food through a buffet


Oh my I do
Like wonton soup
See guys eating it
On a Staten Island stoop

Around new york
It took me ages
Ate at all
The Chinese food places

I know, I know for sure

I know I know its true

For 2 years I have done nothing
But its all good you see
My fortune cookie said
Much good will come to me

I know, I know its true

You say gai pan and then I say moo goo

Hey good idea, I'll start a new one as this one is being finished! I'm also going to work on a marking 'criteria' type thing, just to make judging more accurate. It won't be used for this one though. Thanks to all who entered, new topic up very shortly!

I remember Mad Magaziene did a parody like that a little while ago (like 93 or something) it was to the tune of "Only the Good die young" and it was called "Dont eat the egg-foo-young"  It was part of a collection of parodies titled "The Billy Joel Song book" or something, Ill see if I can find it it had other parodies to him like 'censurland" to the tune of "no-man's land", "Tobacco man" to the tune of "Piano man", and a few more that I dont rmember, I know there was one to "We didnt start the fire" and "Just the way you are"
