I've become particularly obssessed w/ parodies of movies, books, & such--especially musical spoofs! So I thought I'd start up a new thread to indulge my love for lyrical, satirical silliness.
My distinguished contribution below was 1st posted on that CONduit Reading thread in EUOL's section of this cool little forum. But I figured it'd do well as a start-up post.
Enjoy! And I hope a few of you get bit by the Weird Al bug.
"THE ELANTRIAN BLUES"
Well, I got tossed into this city
Where no one wants to share,
We look all brown and creepy
An' Domi don't seem to care.
Ohhhh, yeah, I gots the Elantrian Blues
Yeah, they've really got me stuck.
I'm hungry an' tired an' bruised
An' plum run outta luck!
See, my Dula pal's real gloomy
But I keep tryin' hard to "live"
To show my fellow zombies
They've all got a lot to give.
My daddy's been wreckin' the kingdom,
Plus my fiancé thinks I'm dead.
My toe just won't quit throbbin'
An' my captain, he went Hoed.
Yep, no doubt it's the Elantrian Blues
Boy, they really, really suck.
I'm hungry an' tired an' bruised,
An' horrible short on luck!
Meanwhile, my baby, she done left me,
Then she stabbed me in the face.
That Derethi priest's a meanie,
An' the Dor's still outta reach.
Wellllll, the Elantrian Blues just suck,
'Cuz I'll prob'ly wind up nuts.
Man, why's the Dor all cracked up?
So Rao-less an' dang messed up?
Mmmm, well, maybe I'll never know.
Might as well go with the flow,
An' take a cool relaxin' swim
After failin' sweet Sarene again.
But wait--hey, if it ain't too late,
Perhaps I'll change my fate.
Just turn to chapter sixty-one
An' my Blue days are almost done.
Yeah, those pesky Elantrian Blues,
Oh, all my sorry Blue days,
The down and dull days,
Are allllllmost long gone.
