I once heard a "Signs" parody (5 Man Electrical Band) on the radio that was the best ever.  It went:  "...and the sign said, 'Anyone caught trespassing will be shot on sight'; So I jumped on the fence and I yelled at the-"(sound of gunshots, hippie screaming in pain) The End

A parody is song making fun of another song.

For example Weird Al writes many parodies.

So like saying "like a sturgeon caught for the very first time" instead of "like a virgin...?"

I think the version of "back for good" (Take that) that Robbie Williams made once he left the band was hilarious (the first paragraph above them all!).

I've read some parodies at this website, things like:

porn in the usa
every bath you take
eaten by the wolf
should I shave or let it grow

I find titles funny but i'm not really into all of this.

Theres a parody on nearly all the UK radio stations by an artist known as 50pence and the title is in da pub. This is possibly the best and funniest things iv heard in ages. everyone at college loves it n is quality. Heres some lines from
it

"now if you watch how i move youd mistake me for a geezer or gimp cos i once fell down the stairs and now i walk with al imp,
in the crap bits of watford they say fifty u hot n i want them to love me like they love lesbian tot. and if you go to hemmelhempstead theyll tell you im crazy cos i once got drunk n humped a statue of a lady."

Now im not sure if americans would get the british sense of humour within the song (not a cheap shot) biut i swear it is quality and can b downloaded off of the internet quite easily. The best thing ever.
