Great Minds Think Alike Dept.


Link: Weird Al Yankovic Releases Free MP3

Weird Al just released a parody of James Blunt's "You're Beautiful" on his web site, as an mp3... it's being "slashdotted" I think, hard to hit.

What's scary to me is that I have a file on my laptop timestamped June 1st - I was "inspired" after hearing the song for the 200,000th time that morning. I have to admit I looked at the real lyrics and now that I know what he's really singing it's not as bad as I originally thought, but no matter...

My lyrics:


"I'm Pitiful"

I am a moron.

I'm such a moron.

Brain cells are few.
I saw a Devil.
Her face was turning blue.
She screamed at me on the subway.
Her shopping cart was large.
I think she was a bit confused,
She said her name was Marge.

I'm pitiful. I'm pitiful.
I'm pitiful, it's true.
I saw your face in the Subway,
And I wanted to throw up on my shoe,
Hope I'll never be like you.

Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
Freaked OUT.
And I don't think that I'll meet her again,
Especially if I happen to see her first!

I'm pitiful. I'm pitiful.
I'm pitiful, it's true.
I saw your face in the Subway,
And I wanted to throw up on my shoe,
Hope I'll never be like you.

I'm pitiful. I'm pitiful.
I'm pitiful, it's true.
I saw your face in the Subway,
And I wanted to throw up on my shoe,
Hope I'll never be like you.

If you see a devil with a face so blue,
Don't dare let her know that she was noticed by you,
And if you think she figured it out, you probably oughta run.
Get out of there, go home, and if you have one find your gun!
But if you don't and she traps you there...
You might set fire to your hair...

I like Weird Al's lyrics better, but then of course - he's Weird Al. I bow to the master.
