Subject: The neverending challenge of Jesterdays
Written By: K1chyd on 02/26/05 at 10:24 am
-------------------- :D DISCLAIMER :D --------------------
In this the very first post of this thread there are/were a bunch of "rules" suggested to get the whole thing going. Some of those rules still apply but because of the overwhelming amount of talented parody writers smarter than me that quickly came on board with their own ideas of improvement etc there has also been some changes. You're welcome to join in too, it's a free for all thing, but I strongly suggest that if you haven't been following so far you should first read pages 1-11 (that's where we are now when this "disclaimer" is written) to get your own idea of how this works now and how it came to that.
-------------------- :D END DISCLAIMER :D --------------------
This is the historical weekend when The Beatles becomes the first group/artist/band that has been parodied 1000 times here on AmIright. To celebrate that – and to give you an alternative to the ever growing amount of best-parody-about-(insert-specific-theme-here)-competitions – I’m starting a relay thread (I do not want to use the word competition though a bit of competitiveness will certainly be encouraged, he-he).
The subject of the whole darn thing is to find and drag out into the sun those few and rare three syllable words that has not yet had their own parody to the tune of “Yesterday†and give them their 15 seconds of fame/shame and at least a single verse. (Those you’ll find to be worthy of more than that should of course be posted on AmIright in the usual way.
Here’s how it works:
1. A three syllable word is given as a challenge.
2. The challenge is to use that word as the first and also the last word in a verse that goes with the verses of “Yesterdayâ€Â.
3. The first writer to sign up for the challenge has 12 hours to complete the task (that’s to prevent the ball from staying in the same continental ballpark all the time).
4. Once completed the verse is posted in this thread and the writer must also state what the next three syllable word challenge should be.
5. If the writer who signed up does not complete the task within 12 hours it’s free for anyone else to sign up.
6. It is not allowed to sign up after yourself and write two in a row (I’ll make an exception for myself and verses 1 and 2, but only to get this idea of the ground).
7. Once we reach 1000 verses it will be posted as the mother of all parodies in the regular AmIright forum.
8. You don’t have to write a separate chorus, but you’re allowed to if you want to, If this thread should actually happen to reach 1000 verses I’m planning to use the chorus I’m using to verse 1 and 2 here below, or the alternative that amuses me the most. (I’m aware that a normal parody to this song does not have a chorus until after the second verse so don’t bother to point that out, we’ll just call that artistic license).
Everybody got that? Alright then, as a sign of tribute to the most successful group ever we’re starting off with the word “Yesterdayâ€Â:

Dodging bullets seemed so far away

Well, I stated in the first post that I was gonna do both verse 1 and 2 to get things rolling and that the sign up should be for verse 3, but I can´t really be disappointed with anyone who´s so fast he almost posted before I managed to post the alreday pre-written demonstrative post 2 and 3, and hence helped out to get this thing going.
Also, I get to learn not only the new word but also Kyrgyz.
So (unless someone is posting while I´m writing this) the next word to sign up for is "Blunderbuss". I´m tempted to do it myself but the more the merrier...

Though I'm overwhelmed with the the quick response here I feel obliged to make three clarifications.
Or rather open these things for debate if that´s preferred. ;)
One: My thought with the signing up part was to prevent us from all working on the same word, hence making it easier to convert the whole thing into a full parody later on. a) I don't wanna have to pick one persons version of a word over anothers if that happens and b) Only one can be first, hence the one who first claime the right gets his 12 hours.
Two: Chorus part rewritings are (as I ment it) still to be tie-ins betweens the verses. Not prolongings to the present verse.
Three: I wanted it to be three syllable words, not three syllabe phrases. It´s not a biggie but a) I wanted to hold that way open for a future thread and b) I want to see real and preferably odd words all the way through, not end up with "Spaff's the man" or other kinds of injoke flattery.
But we can take this anyway you want. Opinions?

I edited my "Pakistan" and "Syzygy" entry to include a transitional chorus that links "Pakistan" to "Syzygy".
And I added a transitional chorus that links "Syzygy" to "Blunderbuss".
Subject: Re: The neverending challenge of Yesterday Thread
Written By: K1chyd on 02/26/05 at 12:08 pm
How about the following?
A) We skip the choruses totally because if you can come up with a good tie-in chorus to your verse that fast you should seriously consider writing a full parody of the song instead of posting to this thread. Besides there’s no AmIright rule saying we can´t post a long parody based on just the verse of a song, especially not one so well known as “Yesterdayâ€Â. (And besides that besides all that has to be done is to post a link to this thread in the intro to the final 1000 verses parody).
Johnny, your efforts to add/transform your choruses are appreciated, but I hope you’ll agree with me that we probably get more people to jump in on this thread this way.
B) No signing up, the first posters version goes on “the family treeâ€Â. If later versions should happen to be funnier, see the point made about full parodies in point A above.
C) Using hyphens, like in tooth-decay, is OK.
And D) Johnny gets to keep his Pakistani version on “the family treeâ€Â, but not the "Johnny D" effort, though I’m the first to admit that it made me LOL! :-)
That would make these five verses "the family tree" and “baseball†the next word to claim.

That gives us the option to stay with choruses. I’m staying neutral and will go with the majority which so far seems to be in a 3-0 lead, though the transition from tooth-decay to basketball may still be a bit surrealistic. :-)

My original intent (poorly explained) was that everyone should use this chorus or just gradually improve it, not change it alltogether:
"Now this verse’s the best, can’t you tell, it’s obvious
I’ll throw down the glove but I’ll bet you’re gonna wuss"
I don't know what to opt for any longer, we'll see what happens when and if more people jump in with ideas, but I do think that having to write just one single verse and decide on the next word will keep this running faster (and hopefully for a longer time, 1000 verses is probably utopian but 100 should be within reach judging from these first hours).

This is the historical weekend when The Beatles becomes the first group/artist/band that has been parodied 1000 times here on AmIright.
Well, thanks to Chucky's agenda (or subconscious quest) to cripple himself it took one day longer than that but Beatles parodies numero 998 to 1003 is now up (I just checked). And though Rick D would have been the most deserving of the honour I'm proud to announce that me, myself and moi got #1000. It's far from my best but since it's pretty obvious that this thread sorta inspired the writing I'll plug for it right here and now:

I second Stu's idea of getting to 1000 & shipping it to Sir Paul. That is a very good idea, indeed. Paul's the kind of guy who just might get a big enough kick out of it to give it some major publicity.

In order to link all the verses together with some continuity, AND to add metre interest, I think there should be a rule that the longer lines 5 and 6 MUST be added to the original 4 lines
- and even better if the last word of line 6 becomes the next word for take-off
(altho I understand this isn't always possible - ie. if the last 3 syllables aren't one word)
I notice most people have started doing this anyway, and if we make it a rule now, there'll be less mucking around at the end, when we have to work out how to add the 4-line verses to the 6-line verses
Also I think continuity links between verses would improve the whole final result
(and I'm sure Sir Paul would agree :D)

I thought the intention was to always use this 'chorus' but
It was. And my initial idea was to use that (or something similar if someone else were to come up with that) as a way that we all could use for "passing the buck" over to the the next writer without having to work the next word into the verse. But you know what they say about best laid plans...
That chorus can still be used for submitted verses without line 5 and 6 though, though the ideas that are coming up now from others are IMHO better.
I would also like to say that one of the funny things about this thread is the way that it has taken on a life and an evolution of its own. I like the idea that we should try to work the next word into line 6. I don't mind a bit that you all practically run right over my other initial idea that the next writer should "sign up" and then have 12 hours to do it, and replaced it with a sort of unwritten first-one-to-make-it-gets-it rule.
I'm glad you brought that 'old' rule up, considering what has happened here I think I must go back to the initial post and add a "disclaimer" saying those original rule suggestions are to be read as just original suggestions and nothing more, so that not anyone who wants in at this stage not just read that first page and then jumps here and miss out on the "evolution".
As for those verses of so far where the next word has not been added to the end of either line 4 or line 6, I'm sure there's enough brainpower here already to retroactivly fix that down the road.

In this the very first post of this thread there are/were a bunch of "rules" suggested to get the whole thing going. Some of those rules still apply but because of the overwhelming amount of talented parody writers smarter than me that quickly came on board with their own ideas of improvement etc there has also been some changes. You're welcome to join in too, it's a free for all thing, but I strongly suggest that if you haven't been following so far you should first read pages 1-11 (that's where we are now when this "disclaimer" is written) to get your own idea of how this works now and how it came to that.

I wouldn't mind some kind of mechanism to ensure everyone gets a shot. I've been doing a lot of verses because things are particularly slow for me in the office right now and I've got a fair amount of idle time, but I'd hate to think I'm constantly jumping on a word someone else may want a shot at. I suppose you could set up some sort of rotation system -- whoever is next in line gets say, an hour to come up with a verse before it defaults to the next person. Or they can just pass. But that would probably be too complicated, since you'd have to keep the rotation list posted somewhere and set up some way for people to add themselves to it... so I don't know how practical that is.
I guess, as you suggested, you could just require people to 'sign up' for each word -- that way someone doesn't waste time writing a verse only to find that someone else has posted one already, which has obviously happened. 12 hours is way too much time, though. One hour. After which point, someone else can claim the word.

It's can never be a total waste to write a parody verse even if someone beats you to posting here on this thread, keep the verse and see if you can´t use it further down the line with just alteration of the main word or some words etc. Or transform it into a complete all verses parody to post on AmIright.
But I agree that a one hour rule could work. How about we let things go on like now over the weekend to see what else comes in in terms of ideas and opinions about this.

Jacko showed that he's a bad daddy

Alcohol
It's no trouble if I drink and fall,
Just remind me when it is last call,
If your car weaves, blame alcohol.
Why it makes me go, I don't know, I can't relate
Pee on someones lawn, when you have to urinate
20.
Urinate
Something you should not do on a plate
In the restaurant where you just ate
Please refrain, don't urinate

Yesteryear
Saw the birth of bulky Britney Spears
Rather lied and Kerry suffered smear
Can things be worse than yesteryear?
Is there still a hope, I don’t know, maybe somewhere
Of a better world, or will Terra disappear?
26.
Disappear
See the bugs become a smear
But they still reappear
Oh how I wish that they can disappear
Why do they come and go as they please?
I squash them but somehow they never disappear
27.
Watergate
Sealed the deal and became Nixon’s fate
Tapes and worms in Washington’s debate
The Seventies and Watergate
But he had to go, once he knew, he couldn’t stick
Then came Gerald Ford… and the next word’s trisomic
28.
Trisomic
Writing a verse here is no picnic
I assume it means something quite medic-
al, oh well, that's trisomic
Now this verse’s the best, can’t you tell, it’s obvious
I’ll throw down the glove but I’ll bet you’re gonna wuss
29.
Parody
Can draw humour out of malady

Groceries
In some U.S. states they are tax-free
But in Illinois, with grosser ease
They skim some fees, from groceries
Gro-cers, stock shelves with stuff when people go insane
When... the... weatherman says "Here comes a HURRICANE!"
33.
Hurricane!
I can tell because the weather vane
overtook that QANTAS aeroplane
I'm darned sure that spells hurricane

Bush 'n' Blair
They'll destroy the world, and they don't care
But they think that if they show some flair
We'll keep electing Bush 'n' Blair
How'd they keep their jobs? I don't know, it's quite unclear
They'll destroy us all, with their weapons, nuclear
36.
Nuclear...
Family: your siblings, ma and pa
To the nursing home to see grandma
Coz she's no longer nuclear
She said "I won't go"; had to throw her in the trunk
This line's got one use: introducing..."cyberpunk"
37.
Cyberpunk
You've got trouble if he's on your trunk
He'll turn your data into piles of junk
A data thief is cyberpunk
Where'd your data go, you won't know, it's all up funked
So if data's missed join the list on cypherpunks
38.
Cypherpunks
Take a message, turn it into junk
Leastways, that is what they do, I thunk
But then, I ain't no cypherpunk

40.
Heroin
Morphine's super-fast-acting cousin
Blows away the brain's own endorphins
Deep sh** you're in, with heroin
With-draw-al from heroin causes much malaise
As... does... in-di-gestion from year-old green mayonnaise
41.
Mayonnaise
Fatty condiment, I sing your praise
Sticky, sweet and thick like maple glaze
Oh might you leave me mayonnaise
Please... don't... criticize though my thighs are overweight
For... I... will be labeled as such - like Hester's A
42.
Hester's A
When she went and spoiled her chastity
It was branded on her chest today
And was engraved onto her grave
Oh... great... who'd have thought my consorts that as I sayÂÂ
These...words... we return to the term of 'Yesterday'
43.
Yesterday
All my feces seemed so far away
But my com-mode is backed up today
Call roto-rooter don't delay
I so have to go, I am woe, hurry repair
Pinch a loaf I must, 'fore I bust, my derriere
44.
Derriere
Irishmen wash theirs with Gaelic care
Then they dry them in the Derry air
So clean, so green, their Derrieres
Some... are... supremely proud of their white-glove-clean bum
So... proud... some swing theirs proudly like a pendulum
45.
Pendulum
Swinging in an old clock’s massive tum
Don’t forget the key or it won’t run
And you’ll have stopped that pendulum

Anti-freeze
It's the tipple of choice for alkies

Camembert
Kenneth Williams with powdered hair
Of the Fingernail he did despair
A Citizen called Camembert

I’ll throw down the glove but I’ll bet you’re gonna wuss
48.
Royalty
It's every copyright holder's fee
Or an in-bred wealthy family
They're both, you see, called "Royalty"
Why... do... Bri-tish people pay to support their Queen?
Don't... they... find that whole Queen-thing a bit Byzantine?
49.
Byzantine
When a great empire has risen clean
So structured they know what 'schism' means
They're rife with thieves, so prison teems
Now this verse’s the best, can’t you tell, it’s obvious
I’ll throw down the glove but I’ll bet you’re gonna wuss

Barons like Murdoch get greedier
Daily tabloids getting seedier

Pedantry
Showing learning ostentatiously
Like some brown-nosed kid from Kankakee
What ill annoys, from pedantry
I sure hope someone caught the pun in my last lines
Or have all your brains been thinned out with turpentine?
54.
Turpentine
Doesn't taste so very good in wine
But my woman wants to end my time
So she slipped me some turpentine
Now I, have to go, dying slow, I want to say
Hope the, cops have Monk, or I'm sunk, she'll get away

Getaway
To the seaside for your holiday
Sandflies, sewerage and UV rays
You bet I rue those getaways
Kids are crying out for ice cream in the back seat
You just want to scream: watch your Beemer overheat!
56.
Overheat
What we do when our two bodies meet
And engage in quite amazing feats!
It can be sweet, to overheat!
How the sweat just flows everytime we have a date
How far will we go, I can only speculate
57.
Speculate
Will your parrot-clock procrastinate
And not wake you up but peck you late?
Sell your clock stock, don't speculate!
Why... my... cockatiel appeals to me, I can't say
If... I... liked fish I'd get me a big Manta Ray!
58.
Manta Ray
Found one playing in the sand today
So of course, I pulled by hand away
(I never play with Manta Rays)
On a sandy beach, having Mantas isn’t great
Keep them out of reach, cause they tend to lacerate
59.
Lacerate
When you eat and try to pass a blade
I can't pun about a US state
So I'll just bleed and pass away
Watch the blood here flow, my 'Big O' is a Red Sea
I said something funny, a pun! Who guessed it, eh?
60.
Guessed it, eh?
Yes I did, after a short delay
Ate away at me like tooth decay
Then I perceived I'd guessed it - yay!
Though... most... inside-jokes are below me, I must say
That I'll now refer to this word without delay
61.
Yesticlate
like nearly everything by Em and Jake
my jaded frontal-lobe can't penetrate
I'm sorry Em, but please translate

Johnny's giving me butt-thuggery

Ovaltine
Is most needed after what I've seen
Reading verses that were most obscene
But I'll calm down with Ovaltine
Now this verse’s the best, can’t you tell, it’s obvious
I’ll throw down the glove but I’ll bet you’re gonna wuss
65.
Nicotine
Big buzz when it gets in your bloodstream
It suppresses hunger, keep you lean
Oh joy! Addictive nicotine!
After in-ter-course there is nothing like a smoke
Then a sumptuous three-course meal of artichoke!
66.
Artichoke
Healthy nutrient for every bloke
But if you prefer your beer and smoke
You’ll get angina and you’ll choke
When you gasp for air, tell me was, it worth the slack?
To pass up on making a life as lumberjack
67.
Lumberjack
Sleeps outdoors inside his slumbersack
And when he awakes, he stumbles back
Into his shack, to have a whack
When he comes at daybreak to tend his morning wood
He is lumberwhacking, it’s clearly understood
68.
Understood
When it rained I found a bridge was good
Kept me dry just like a a jacket hood
When there I went and understood

Anime
Japanese cartoon technology
I like the "Hentai" variety
Big eyes, you'll see, in Anime
Why... do... Anime characters have such big eyes?
Why... are... their eyes always bizarrely super-sized?
70.
Super-size
Hefty hamburgers and freakish fries
Ailing arteries and thunder thighs
Gigantic guys go Super-size
How I stuff my face everytime I go to eat
And without dessert, any meal is incomplete
71.
Incomplete’s
What a mile is if it miss a feet
So are bonfires without a heat
Like empty seats, they’re incomplete
How to fill such up, I don´t know, it’s really hard
For a wacky bard from the Swedish avant-garde
72.
'Avant-garde'
Is a term sometimes applied to art
That in truth is really just ‘bizarre’
I hold such art in low regard
Dada dee-dee dumb – goodbye Dali, fare thee well
How’d you sell that stuff? Where’d you find your clientele?
73.
Clientele
They no longer have in NHL
The whole season now has gone to Hell
They’re cross-checking their clientele
Fi-gure skating’s up, but it’s not the same, I’ll tell
Rinks are now filled up with high sticking tinkerbells
74.
Tinkerbell
Very tiny but she's hot as hell
Peter's Panhandle it sure did swell
All for the love of Tinkerbell
Things have changed somewhat, you will see, you'll understand
Lawyers preventing us from using Neverland
75.
Neverland
Now more famous for a nether gland
All night sleepovers forever banned
Since tiny fans became out-fanned
Seemed - like - such a nice way to meet a famous star
Sip - some - Jesus juice, and pretend you're his guitar
76.
Superstar
When everybody knows who you are
Get to drive in a sleek uber-car
Oh why achieve, once superstarred?
You... just... kick back and relax once you are up there
Your... a**... I mean, not reaching status 'debonair'
77.
Ampersand
Is quite difficult to write by hand
Those who can are always in demand
They charge a grand, for ampersands
When you write by hand, ampersands can be a pain
Why folks don't just type I can never ascertain
78.
Ascertain
When it's difficult for your brain
The puzzle makes your poor mind strain
It's very difficult to ascertain

Just light that reef, and feel spacey
Cookies made of hash, when you mash in the seeds

Handicapped
If I'm un-PC I might get slapped
So this parody's already scrapped
You can't poke fun at handicapped
Let's just leave it here, don't want hassle, don't want scorn
Lets try finding a pot of gold with leprechauns!
81.
Leprechauns
Yiddish-speaking climbers pile gear on
Little Sherpas they call Schleprechauns
They're green and strong, them Schleprechauns!
Why... they... left the Emerald Island, oh who can say
May-be... they gave up Guinness Stout for Chardonnay
82.
Chardonnay
It’s as dry as a Falluja gay
And it’s not for the Al-Qaida way
To alcohol they just say nay
Why’d you treat those guys, you will ask, as you get slashed
As they spill it out, and your blood, all unabashed
83.
Unabashed
At finding all the words that rhyme, like 'clashed'
And crashed and dashed and flashed and gashed and hashed
Lashed, mashed, gnashed, pashed, stashed, thrashed and trashed
Did... I... miss any? Hopefully you won't notice
I... guess... I should just accept my rhymes are hopeless
84.
Vagabond
He looked a little like Mick Jagger, fond
of guzzling vino from a bag beyond
his park bench, "Chateau Vagabond"
As - a - child he sighed that one day he'd be well-known
And - you - can't deny he's become a rolling stone
85.
Rolling Stone
Jagger swallowing a microphone
Or a magazine read on 'the throne'
They both are known as, Rolling Stone
Do... they... pay Bob Dylan a hefty royalty?
Well, at least they owe him undying loyalty
86.
Loyalty
Is a card that Tesco's gave to me
And it gives me lots of things for free
In return for my Loyalty

For Leo this is insanity

Sweet relief
What to eat to lighten up the grief
Though they’re rather bad for things like teef
But still we love our, sweet relief
Wow…I… ate so much now I think I’m almost full
Just…a…few more I can sit through a musical

Musical
My very faVORite muse, ick, all
Unless you are seeing "Seussical"
I recommend, a musical
In New York I go to the shows, they keep me sane
I keep pining for something more, with Nathan Lane

Nathan Lane
He's a man who lives to entertain
But this often leads to vocal strain
Which causes pain for, Nathan Lane
He's... worked... hard for years, his success is not a fluke
And... he... earns his cheers, quite unlike that Bastard Luke

Bastard Luke
Perry, Skywalker, Brattoni, Duke?
One of them is due a large rebuke
But oh, which is the Bastard Luke?
If… to... Brisbane you go, Ralphing is the guy to see
He's... no… stuffy toff, not one of the bourgeoisie
93.
Bourgoisie
These are folks much better off than me
Status, education, and money
And fam'ly tree, dammed Bourgoisie!
But… it’s… proles like me that the world depends upon
Kingston, Kankakee, Kokomo or Kazhakstan
94.
Kazhakstan
It’s not even near Jamaica, mahn!
Though their cosmonauts’ like ganja, ahhn
Goes up in smoke, in Kazhazstan
Why they fly from there, I don’t know, it’s nowhere all
And if something’s wrong they might land in Senegal
95.
Senegal
Where folks speak with a deep southern drawl
But they don’t use words like and YEP and Y'ALL
Not guys and dolls in Senegal
Home… of… Youssou N’Dour, there his early days were spent
And his love endures for his native continent
96.
Continent
With a-l suffix, Chris Walken's gent
With i-n prefix, that gent just went
Con-ti-nen-tal's incontinent!
Is... the... land down under continent or island?
Or... is... Australia a place full of Merry Men?
97.
Merry Men
Prance about in tights like fairies, then
Robin's straight but they are very bent
It'th thuch a teathe: gay merriment
Check... out... their Fat Friar's new attire, it's a chick's dress
And... Maid... Marion? Thespian without success
98.
Prodigies
Can be troubled souls ironically
Their genius is there for all to see
But focussed quite specific'ly
Wwhy... do... we expect them to live like normal folk
Where... there's... flames, there's often a blinding cloud of smoke
99.
Irony
Do you mean something made from Fe?
Or perhaps an incongruity
Not sure I can do irony
Now this verse’s the best, can’t you tell, it’s obvious
I’ll throw down the glove but I’ll bet you’re gonna wuss

Mutilate
Like what you did to that food you ate
That's what happens when you masticate
Or, cows that wait can moo too late
I... like... virgin cows, for they look into your eyes
And... they... take a vow that their milk is Pasteurized
101.
Pasteurised
is the coolest milk they've yet devised
of good and purity it is comprised
so Maccas sells it super-sized
Why... drink... beer or wine if you're just in search of thrills
Hop... down... to the deli for pasteurised fresh milk...s
102.
Satisfy
Urges that you need to gratify
So go on, Emi, start to bat an eye
Cuz you deserve a better guy!
I... just... saw ol' Stu's, clever news, what a smart guy!
Make... us... link our verses. He's wise like samurai!
103.
Samurai,
Kind of like a Japanese Jedi
But our fella's not a happy guy
He's fed up being Samurai
Dude just wants to be on TV, presenting shows
Watch him do his thing; chat-show king of Tokyo!
104.
Tokyo
Home of 'Japanese Pinocchio'
Made of Bonsai, not the oak we know;

firstly, congratulations K1 - some brilliant ideas just don't stick, but yours has - and it might end up like one of those community quilts that draws the spirit of the amiright community together - and it would be hard to come up with a greater collaborative creative effort than a 1000-verse parody.
secondly, just for the challenge, I'm going to add lines 5 and 6 to all my early 4-line entries, AND try to end line 6 with the word that starts the next verse (to seamlessly maintain continuity) then I'll send them to you to replace my 4-line originals
thirdly, Leo has a good point, and the 1-hour solution is good, except that there'd be a "1 hour + 1 second" bunfight between everyone who thought of and wrote verses in that hour and wanted theirs to get up.
Also if there's a 1 hour forced wait after each submission, we might be messing with the rolling-momentum the thread has established, which it needs to surf comfortably to 1000 entries
As Grand Poobah of this thread, K1, it's you who gets to decide rule changes, and I submit to you 2 options
1. don't change anything. In Australia, when I'm posting there's never a rush -
  some words sit for 12 hours waiting to be acted on, so nervous U.S. newbies could just log on late at night
  and almost certainly get a verse in
2. newbies (3 or less submissions - self-regulated) can push a PAUSE button - by replying with "PAUSE - their name"
  which then gives them Leo's hour of exclusive rights to write and submit, then it's free-for-all again
the benefit being that only occasionally (rather than every time) does the 1-hour wait come into play
Personally, I like #1, because it's simple, and there may not even be a problem.
Or you could try #2, list it in the rules at the top of the thread so newbies will see it when investigating the thread, and if the PAUSE button is never enacted, then at least we'd know there wasn't that nervous-newbie problem
again, congrats, mate :D

…I'm going to add lines 5 and 6 to all my early 4-line entries, AND try to end line 6 with the word that starts the next verse (to seamlessly maintain continuity) then I'll send them to you to replace my 4-line originals…
Good Idea. And feel free to do the same to all other places where the “standard lines 5-6†now are. I don’t expect everyone who have submitted so far wants do this so maybe we should just say doing that is a free for all thing too?
…the 1-hour solution is good, except that there'd be a "1 hour + 1 second" bunfight between everyone who thought of and wrote verses in that hour and wanted theirs to get up.
Also if there's a 1 hour forced wait after each submission, we might be messing with the rolling-momentum the thread has established, which it needs to surf comfortably to 1000 entries…
Without calling it a rule we could open this up for experimentation. Anyone who wants the next word very badly could just post something like; “Hey! I’m on this one, give me an hour from now†and we'll see how it works.
As Grand Poobah of this thread, K1…

Wow. Stellar idea, Peter. And grrreat stuff, everyone.
Y'all are doing a great job on the verses, but it seems there aren't enough bridges to go around, so I'll contribute one of those:
Why'd this half-assed song get so long? It's hard to say
I slapped on a verse - now it's worse than "Yesterday"
xoxox
Spaff
P.S. For the lexically chaste among us: Feel free to substitute "half-baked" for "half-assed."
Welcome on board Spaff. We'll see if that bridge will fit in somewhere. In the meantime I'll make it a new mission to end line 6 with "half-baked ass" as a tribute to the mighty Spaff! ;D

Well, I guess it's up to me, the Big Kahuna of Somewhat Koherent Kausality on this thread, to "lay down the law" in some way on this, but for the record let me just say that I don't really believe in absolute rules here, it would never work, just look at the ban on sex type parodies on AmIright and how some of the incredibly creative writers here *cough* johnny d *cough* have come up with stuff that works around that.
As for how many you should let go first I'd say that ONE is quite enough to keep the fun in it. Though if noone has posted after you in say 24 hours that means in theory that everyone online in the whole world has had their coffee break chance to do it and that you should be allowed to do one more. So go for it. It would be too easy to break a no-no rule anyway for anyone who'd get a kick out of that, just sign up with a second account and duel-post with yourself. (I can't see the fun it that, but someone propably would. As the saying goes here in Sweden; "there's people for everything").
We started off posting much faster than that on this thread and looking back you can see that there was actually some very quick exchanges between two writers (or more) immediately picking up on each others passes. I don't know if we'll ever get back to that, but those were fun. ;D
As for using the next word as the last word in your own line 6 I'd say that it's preferable, but not mandatory, it will make the final 1000 verse parody look much better but we'll never get that far anyway if we enforce "rules" on the behalf of "fun". Try to leave off with words or phrases or well known abbreviations that are funny and/or challening and/or anything that you think will bring out the "Hey! I wanna do that verse" in the next person to come along.

Like what you did to that food you ate
That's what happens when you masticate
Or, cows that wait can moo too late
I... like... virgin cows, for they look into your eyes
And... they... take a vow that their milk is Pasteurized
101
Pasteurised
is the coolest milk they've yet devised
of good and purity it is comprised
so Maccas sells it super-sized
Why... drink... beer or wine if you're just in search of thrills
Hop... down... to the deli for pasteurised fresh milk...s
102
Satisfy
Urges that you need to gratify
So go on, Emi, start to bat an eye
Cuz you deserve a better guy!
I... just... saw ol' Stu's, clever news, what a smart guy!
Make... us... link our verses. He's wise like samurai!
103
Samurai,
Kind of like a Japanese Jedi
But our fella's not a happy guy
He's fed up being Samurai
Dude just wants to be on TV, presenting shows
Watch him do his thing; chat-show king of Tokyo!

Tokyo
Home of 'Japanese Pinocchio'
Made of Bonsai, not the oak we know;
Wee-nocchio: We hope he grows!
And... Ge... petto-san stamped his boy "Made in Japan"
Be... cause... some folks thought that the boy was Peking Man
105
Peeking Man
I’m quite sure he was a streaking man
Then he did evolve to speaking man
And next to come is geeky man
Will those learn to walk, I don’t know, they’re stuck at desks
Hear their future’s song, it’ll be long and Kafkaesque
106
Kafkaesque
Is what my world is like behind my desk
IMO, it's getting more grotesque
Than simply, merely kafkaesque
Now this verse’s the best, can’t you tell, it’s obvious
I’ll throw down the glove but I’ll bet you’re gonna wuss

Plunk the keys, sounds like a dial tone
Chances are if you're a guy, no bone

Bitchin car
What the kids do when the trip is far
Like from Aberdeen to Zanzibar
Oh, life is hard in bitchin' cars
When... you... plan a road trip, consider DVDs
And... make... sure you load up when driving overseas
110
Overseas
You can pretty much do as you please
Dent a car, offend some Japanese
Coz no-one sues you overseas
Un...less...you take sides in a regional dispute ÂÂ
You'll...be...kneeling down, on TV, in an orange suit
111
Orange suits
Better than bananas or starfruits
And pear underwear sticks to your glutes
Much more a-peel-ing, orange suits
That last verse made no goddamn sense, I will concede
But I don't get paid, hey… not even chickenfeed

Chickenfeed
After working fingers till they bleed
I’d prefer some money, yes indeed
To chickenfeed and rotten swedes
My! This farmhouse blows, But I know I’m just an ass
I’ll kill something soon and wind up in Alcatraz
113
Alcatraz
Have you heard what kind of club it has?
They just sing-sing, but they don’t play jazz
There’s no pizzazz at Alcatraz
But… if… you like sax, it can be the place to go
You… can… just relax and tune in to zydeco
114
Zydeco
It’s New Orleans music Art Deco
But I’ll tell you, I can’t get no flow
I’ll have to rhyme with El-Greco
As for Art Deco, well I like to wear a bra
If that's art depends if it's Yule or Mardi Gras
115
Mardi Gras
Has a silent "s" so rhymes with "Car"
Means "Fat Tuesday", which is quite bizarre
So let's all drink to Mardi Gras
Now this verse’s the best, can’t you tell, it’s obvious
I’ll throw down the glove but I’ll bet you’re gonna wuss
116
Oxygen
Needed to fuel thoughts and cognition
O2, chemical composition
Brain dead, don't breathe, politicians
It... is... in the air. Everywhere that you can go
And... it's... bottled and sold holy at Jericho
117
Jericho
Was a guy in school where I did go
Couldn’t hold his own, oh no, no, no
He honked his horn that Jericho
He could cleanse a room and take colour of a Benz
Once the walls came down and took out a lot of friends
118
Lots of friends
Will not tell you if you have split ends
They're too worried they will cause offence
By chipping in with their two cents
So...you...go through life with a head of damaged hair
Peo...ple...snig-ger but you're completely unaware
119
Unaware
Software that does not know you are there
Screaming at it and pull-ing your hair
It doesn't care --- it's una-ware
Soft... ware... should realize that to us, it's just a slave
But... some... times it flips us the bird and misbehaves
120
Misbehave
All the critics of AmIRight do rave
About the parodies that we crave
And make us further misbehave
Now this verse’s the best, can’t you tell, it’s obvious
I’ll throw down the glove but I’ll bet you’re gonna wuss
121
Rivalry
Bear in mind Cain from the Bible, he
Dealt with Abel fratricidally
Not brotherly, their rivalry
Brothers always do have antagonistic stuff
Only very few go beyond mere fisticuffs
122
Fisticuffs
When some bastards steal the bong you puff
Or if younger, your marshmallow fluff
You’ll take’em down in fisticuffs
What they said to you, you don’t know, it’s kinda dim
But the court demands you’ll recall it verbatim
123
Verbatim
When you recall every word at 'em
What'd Luke say to delete thread-chattin'?
Screw that, just heave, crude verbsatim
Wish... I'd... thought to use, less abuse in my replies
I... caused... The Only Thread that Matters' demise
124
Imbecile
With a brain the size o’ sheep, no shrill!
They should all be washed up in Brazil
Those cortex chall-enged imbeciles
Now I’ll ‘pologize, cos Brazil’s done nothing wrong
I’ve had one too much and this verse’a drinking song
125
Drinking Song
That’s a tune that goes on far too long
Like a never-ending game of Pong
Or Donkey Kong, a drinking song
E... lec… tronic games can be sometimes fun to play
But... they... can be endless once they are underway
126
Underway
Is something I can't do today
For my weight is nearly 90k
I over- and not underweigh
Why I'm oh, so gross, I don't know it ain't OK
I ate... hell, all night now I might just underweigh
127
Cyanide
"When they see me, birdies try an' hide"
"But they'll go for nuts with cyanide"
Tom Lehrer's lines, I've plagiarized
Pigeons... live throughout Britain on that foggy isle
When... they... make more pigeons, they do it doggy style
128
Doggy style
Something I've not tried in quite a while
Though the memory still stirs a smile
As I remember doggy style
Facing back to front's quite a stunt, yes quite a trick
Don't do up your flies, or you might get an arsenic
129
Arsenic
Something that can make you very sick
So rush to the doctor very quick
If you should lick, some arsenic
What… can… do the trick to curtail frivolity?
Serve… up… arsenic of the highest quality!
130
Quality
Like the ending of this parody
As we complete going A to Z
My next word starts with letter 'E'
Are... you... all ready? Finale of this here show!
Oh... right... still eight hundred and seventy to go!
131
Enema
This is something that I’ve learned from Ma
When acyclic prunes is good fer ya
It takes your a** from “aaah!†to “blah!â€Â
Why it makes you go, I don’t know, I cannot say
And I really hope you won’t need it everyday
132
Everyday
My wife cooks for me a cheese souffle
I say "darling, one day could we stray
And order Chinese takeaway?"
But… she... used to live on a farm in Whittlesea
so... we... daily give to our farming industry
133
Industry
You say "Great for the economy"
Until your backyard's a factory
Then you'll object to industry
When... a... smokestack falls, people all let out a cheer
Blow… ing up's a gas, for a plastique cavalier
134
Cavalier
Is a Chevrolet I bought last year
But a Hummer rammed it in the rear
I used to love my Cavalier
Maybe I'll replace it if my insurance pays
If I get the cash, I'll replace my Chevrolet
135
Chevrolet
You can't buy a better car today,
Take your Cadillac, it's just 'okay',
I'd rather drive, a Chevrolet
The only other car I would drive is a Corvette
But I don't have the cash, so it will be hard to get
136
Hard to get
For sweet Romeo was Juliet
Should've settled for a dumb brunette
And not upset the Capulets
Why... she... had to die, he don't know, he couldn't say
So... he... suicided, to everyone's dismay
137
Suicide
Is a past-time that I haven't tried
Though I think I've got some cyanide
It's rather good for suicide
I won't kill myself, 'cause my health's still fairly great
But kill someone else: homicide makes me salivate
138
Salivate
Over verses that we do misstate
Over his dead ma did Norman Bates
We all do that, except my dates
Why we drool like fools, I don’t know, but it’s not chic
So I’ll move again and this time to Mozambique
139
Mozambique
Holiday that aint a frozen week
Just landmines that cause explodin' feet
A knotted sleeve is oh-so chic
You... said... not to go to the snow this holiday
My... limbs... now wrapped in a full-body tourniquet!
140
Tourniquet
Tell me, have you stopped the bleeding yet?
Just hold on until I call the vet
To mend my pet, oh tourniquet
If... you... bite my a**, my pet donkey's gonna bleed
So... just... ride my a** -- satisfaction's guaranteed!
141
Guranteed
Is a spelling that's not often seed
And if Leo had noticed it, he'd
Probably spell it "guaranteed"
Why he spelt it so, I don't know - maybe he'll say
I've spelt such things wrong, but so long to My toupée
142
My toupee
I did steal from Captain Kirk today
Now it’s here and it is hair to stay
I’ll get a life, through my toupee
But it troubles me, that it’s tribble hair all through
And it procreates, it’s twelve inches hitherto
143
Hitherto
This thing’s jumpy as a kangaroo
And this verse I now will pitch into
It’s safe to say it’s overdue
Why? It’s easter now, and I guess we’re off to hatch
But… I… wrote this one just so I could reattach
144
Reattach
I knew this surgery had a catch
The errors here he cannot patch
My foot he cannot reattach
Now this verse’s the best, can’t you tell, it’s obvious
I’ll throw down the glove but I’ll bet you’re gonna wuss
145
CPR!
Golden robots now built creepier
R2-D2 getting beepier
New characters? I'm sleepier
Hey... C... 3PO! A no-show for the next film
Just... this... new robot, CPR, we will love him
146
Maybelline
Is a hit with the transvestitie scene
Along with dresses a strange shade of green
And dodgy wigs on which they're keen
Why they like these things I don't know, I couldn't say
What makes them all choose Valerie as their soubriquet
147
Soubriquet
Is an alias or A.K.A
As 'Leola' is to 'Leo Jay'
I like to play with soubriquets
With too many names, you might not know who you are
On the other hand, it might just be wunderbar!
148
Wunderbar
Wonder Woman went and mooned a car
Then I spanked her with a tuned guitar
And George Clooney re-Clooned her bra
Stu... pid... rhymes like those are silly but fun to rap
Just... like... fuming farts that sound like a thunderclap
149
Thunderclap
louder (much) than popping bubblewrap
For brainy weathermen they're fun-to-map
Though sad, that energy, none-can-tap
they… just… watch the sky-shows in awe, time and again
they're… the… hottest sights going, for the weathermen
150
Weathermen
Documenting on the elements
They're a really cheery brethren
Get venom from the feminists
Oh... they... all report if it's rained, after it's poured
Quite... a... spooky practise just like a ouija board

Ouija Board
What it says should really be ignored
It's a pastime for the really bored
That wee, and boring ouija board
Why it's misused so, I don't know, like I should care?
But last time, I note, it said vote for Tony Blair

'Whoops a daisy! Now I'll pull, you push'
Embarrassing... I Mister Bush

Cuz... the... attendence of this thread is really slow

Really Slow
Is the top sped that my car will go
Never should have bought that old Peugeot
I get to places really slow
Thirteen K.P.H. is the fastest I can roll
I was passed today by a couple on a stroll
155
Saturate
Remove double-bonds from fat you ate
Raise the melting-point of the substrate
That happens when you saturate
Why the polyunsaturated fats are so
Much better for you, I don't know, no I dunno

Wacky Goo
Is a description for my veggie stew
When its overcooked and looks like poo
Then I call it Wacky Goo

Time for an overall update. We're getting close to 200 now.
168
Waterfalls
They’re out in the wild where nature calls
And in Vegas ‘cos they got the balls
To build hot desert waterfalls
Bring your dough out man, and go play and procreate
Don’t end up in debt though, the mob won’t clean the slate
169
Clean the slate
Do it now and don't procrastinate
For it is the time to set the date
Don't dilly-dally or be late
But if truth be told I am not exactly sure
Who this slate-cleaning job is really for
170
En flambé
Like the citizens of old Pompeii
It is when food's keeping warm in flames
Describes VDs, “no-condom†pain
Why did Philbo choose French to use for his word choice?
Guess it's lucky I understand his froggy voice
171
Frog-in-throat
Made the diva hit a faulty note
And made all her diva rivals gloat
"Hey, get a load of frog-in-throat!â€Â
On the opera scene, it's a case of dog eat dog
Though it often seems like a case of hog-eat-hog
172
Hog-eat-hog
Less one-sided than, say, dog-eat-frog
And more tasty than a moggy log
Let's spit the roast and hog eat hog
Why, was that so hard? I don't know, but it's a mish-
mash of silly words, so the next one's gibberish
173
Gibberish
Flasm-zasm-plasm-bibberish
Oogle-boogle-doogle-flibberish
A waste, of space, is gibberish
Gly, blee, blad, due, bloe, blye, grote, doe, blee, robin, slade
Urrgh, arrgh, ahh-eee-oh, eee-ah-oh, it's Ruben Blades!
174
Ruben Blades
He's the guy who acted in “Two Jakesâ€Â
Oh, he's Rubenesque in many ways
The dude gets babes, that Ruben Blades
Why'd he have to do “Predator 2â€Â, it was crap
I think that he acts like he's got a handicap
175
Handicap
If it’s in my blood it’ll make me sap
If it’s social it might be the clap
They’re not just limbs, them handicaps
Why’d I have to break every bone, I’m such a dork
Now I move as eased as Al-Qaida in New York
176
In New York,
I have only been there twice before
It is such a long drive to my north
I don't know much, about New York
I know those rhymes are bad so don't start ragging me
Hold off your flames, I know it pains, like surgery
177
Surgery
All these cut-backs are a-changing me
I'm not half the man I used to be
It's kind of drastic surgery
Why I had the op, I don't know but it felt right
Thankfully the surgeon did not use gelignite
178
Gelignite
It is but one form of dynamite
Use it wrong and you will see a light
So just don't play, with gelignite
You have been warned so don't get burned, that would suck bum
Use common sense, and don't be dense, like Osmium
179
Osmium
Nearly rhymes with Niodymium
Or something similarly simian
It's heavy sheesh, is Osmium
If you do not know the Os, don't mean you're dumb
And who really cares that Pt is Platinum
180
Platinum
It's worth less than Gold-Pressed Latinum
But more than its cousin gold (Aurum)
It costs a lot, that Platinum
Lets leave these metals alone for a minute please
Try something easier like basic ABCs
181
ABCs
And some women come in Ds and Es
But above that I don’t feel at ease
Makes heavy work, to get release
Why they still must go, to the doc, no clue, I swear
If they’re round and C, they won’t blow, the brassiere
182
Brassiere
A boulder-holder that'll take a pair
But you never see what hides in there
No quick-releasing brassiere
A new fashion trend: three cups, not two or one
There's only a two-to-one chance of it catching on
183
Zanzibar
’Tis a country where chimpanzees are.
Not that big and yet it spans afar
But every pub's a pansy bar
It is paradise, dark blue skies and golden sand
So if you elope, hit the coast for it is grand
184
Wedding Ring,
It's the traditional marriage thing
Show the spouse your love with lots of bling
It costs a lot, a wedding ring
Forgetting your anniversary isn't fun
It's a scary sight, she just might, dial 9-1-1
185
9-1-1
All your problems have now just begun
When you're on the wrong end of a gun
It's too late to dial 9-1-1
All of this talk of cops and laws, it leaves me stressed
So lets just forget, think a sec, 'bout happiness
186
Happiness
Is the greatest gift that I possess
And I thank the lord that I've been blessed
With more'n my share of happiness
Why I'm feeling sad, it's too bad but hey, that's me
Maybe it's because I'm thinking of being seventy
187
Seventy
Useless advice? Heck I give plenty
Lots of laxatives I have in tea
So I'll be paying heaven fees
Am I getting on? Sadly, son, that is the truth
I wear dentures cuz I've lost my last wisdom tooth
188

Stepped in something wrong, now I pong of vagrancy
