Smithereens to STP's Vasoline

Click here for Pacing Aide.  Disclaimer:  This is the only sound file I could find.  Poor quality recording, probably a garage cover, but a straight cover, so close enough to walk you through the melody & lyrics of the OS.

I've been waiting since April 1 to submit this one...it is really the best I can do, so I'll just go home if (when) I don't get a medal.

Fake I.D. to the tune of Eminem's "Without Me," which I'm sure I'll be able to find an mp3 of someplace on the web (I'll post it if (when) I find one).

If we DKTOS, does that disqualify us for the contest? Is a comment like " DKTOS or DRememberTOS but funny ( SOTM ) " okay? Also, are we allowed to ( SOTM ) songs as they appear on this list? I already have done one. Forgive my ignorance on this as I haven't had a parody worth entering untill now.

Any comment is good, as long as you leave a comment (so DKTOS would be fine)

You can comment on those songs whenever you like between the time they appear on this list and the end of the month. Obviously, you can't vote until the voting thread is up (since more songs can be added)

i've posted this song already but i'll do it again...lol


"Mother Dearest"

I remember that night
Mom busted in with a great big fright
I know my mom loves me
She haves her way of showing it
With wiping me with coat hangers and
covering my mouth with Post-its

She would always tie me up
And an electric chair
My mind would be fried
So I could forget all about last night

(ladida ladida ladida ladida)

I know my mom loved she had a way of showing it
By beating me to death and holding me hostage
But that's the mom would care for me
I guess I'll always be a Daddy's girl
A daddy's girl
:)

I'm entering so I can catch up on the work of the other authors here... and to make them ALL suffer through a rap parody. Just remember it's your own fault for not showing up first time around.
