Hiya,



Here's a parody of "I don't like mondays" wot I wrote during the G8 Meetings ...... it's going down well in open mics in South London! Did you know that Bobs band the BoomTown Rats are suing him for not paying royalties on their albums?



Paraody of  "I don't like mondays" originally

Written by Bob Geldoff, performed by The Boomtown Rats

Parody written By Corneilius Lookwood 2005





THE EGO TRIP INSIDE HIS HEAD
GETS SWITCHED TO OVERLOAD
AND NOBODYS GONNA PAY TODAY
HE'S GONNA MAKE THEM PUT OFF THAT LOAN
AND BOBBY DOESN'T UNDERSTAND IT
THOUGH WE CAN SEE HE IS GOOD FOR THE GOLD
AND WE CAN SEE THE REASON,
CAUSE THERE ARE GOOD REASONS
WHAT REASONS DO YOU NEED TO BE SHOWN?

I TELL YA WHY I DON'T LIKE GELDOF
I TELL YA WHY I DON'T LIKE BONO
I TELL YA WHY I DON'T LIKE GELDOF
WE WANT THE  TRUTH, THE WHOLE WAY DOWN


THE PR MACHINE IS KEPT SO CLEAN
AS IT HYPES TO A WAITING WORLD
AFRICAN MOTHERS FEEL SO SHOCKED
AS THEIR CHILDRENS WORLD IS ROCK
AS THEIR THOUGHTS TURN TO
THE ONE THEY THOUGHT WOULD HELP
BUT HE DISSED THE PROTESTERS
OUR BOB IS JUST A  JESTER
STILL WE CAN SEE THE REASON,
CAUSE THERE ARE GOOD REASONS
WHAT REASONS DO YOU NEED TO BE SHOWN?

TELL YA WHY I DON'T LIKE BANKERS X 3
I WANT THE WHOLE TRUTH, THE WHOLE WAY DOWN

ALL THE PLAYING HAS STOPPED AT THE G8 NOW
THEY WANT TO MAKE 'EM PAY ALL THE WHILE
AND THE POOR ARE OUT EARLY AND SOON THEY'LL BE LEARNING
AND THE LESSON WILL BE HOW TO DIE
AND WHEN THE  BULLsheesh CRACKLES
AND THE CAPTAINS CACKLE
WITH THE PROBLEMS AND THE HOWS AND THE WHYS
WE CAN SEE THE REASONS
CAUSE THERE ARE GOOD REASONS
STILL WHAT REASON DO YOU NEED TO LIE

OH TELL US WHY MR. GELDOF X3
WE WANT THE WHOLE TRUTH ALL THE WAY DOWN.



THE PEOPLE ON THE GROUND ARE PUSHED AROUND
THE NGOS ARE IGNORED
THE WORLD BANKS WANT THEIR POUNDS OF FLESH
IT'S A QUESTION OF TOTAL CONTROL
AND BOBBY DOESN'T SEEM TO KNOW IT
AND MAYBE HE JUST DOESN'T CARE
STILL THERE ARE GOOD REASONS
AND WE CAN SEE THE REASONS
COS THERE IS PLENTY OF CASH TO SPARE

OH TELL US WHY THE POOR MUST DIE
OH TELL US WHY THE POOR MUST DIE
OH TELL US WHY THE POOR MUST DIE

WE WANT THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH NOW

Hiya,

I believe you tried to post this on amiright and it was refused.  I don't allow parodies to be posted with all the letters UPPERCASED

here's the lyrics in smalls .........


The ego trip inside his head
gets switched to overload
and nobodys' gonna pay today
he's gonna make them put off that loan
and bobby doesn't understand it
though we can see he is good for the gold,
and we can see the reason
yes there are good reasons
what reasons do you need to be shown

I tell ya why I don't like geldof
I tell ya why I don't like bono
I tell ya why I don't like geldof
this is the truth , the whole truth now

the pr machine is kept so clean
as it hypes to a waiting world
african mothers feel so shocked
as their childrens world is rocked
as their thoughts turn to
the one they thought would help
but he dissed the protesters
bob is the court jester
and we can see the reason
there are good reasons
what reasons do you need to be shown?

I tell ya why I don't like geldof
I tell ya why I don't like geldof
I tell ya why I don't like geldof
this is the truth , the whole truth now

all the playing has stopped at the G8 now
they want to make them pay all the while
and the poor are out early and soon they'll be learning
and the lesson will be how to die
when the bullsheesh crakles,

here's the lyrics in smalls .........

wirh the problems and the hows and the whys
and we can see the reason
there are good reasons
what reasons do you need to be shown?

I tell ya why I don't like geldof
I tell ya why I don't like geldof
I tell ya why I don't like geldof
this is the truth , the whole truth now.

the people on the ground are pushed around
the ngos are ignored
the world banks want their pound of flesh
it's a question of total control
and bobby doesn't seem to get it
and maybe he just doesn't care
and we can see the reason
there are good reasons
and there is plenty of cash to spare?

I tell us why the poor must die
I tell us why the poor must die
I tell us why the poor must die
we wnat the truth , the whole truth now

Our bob is the man with the cunning plan
to look good on the stage with gordon brown
bp was there, volvo too, jp morgan knew what was going down,
he will sell his lps, put on concerts from free
get sweatshops to make the rubber bands,
these are all the reasons,
profit is the reason
propaganda for the empires crown

that is why the poor must die
that is why I don't like geldof
that is why I don't like geldof
the truth is sad, he's just a clown

I will post them to amiright.





cool... I'll post 'em tomorrow!
