Ah, nuts. I don't know which to choose! Three parodies this month, one's already been in a contest, and the other two are just too good! I'll stick with the one that has the most votes (9 555's and a bloody 111...bastard):

That's Not Weird Al!

And because I'm ever so nice, here. Promise me you won't kill yourselves aftter hearing this damned song, IT'S CRAP!!

Only three songs this month.. my lowest monthly total since I started at Amiright (I think).  Never seem to be near a computer when the ideas strike, I guess.

Anyway, seeing as "We didn't start the fire" parodies seem a bit clich

Well, once again, I only managed to get one parody out this month...so...my choice is fairly simple:

I managed just 4 songs this month. I hope "Be Our Guest" hasn't worn out its welcome in SOTM yet.

I know which song he wants to enter, so it'll work by the time the voting thread is posted.

Here's my entry for the June SOTM:

The Argh Cheer & I-Feel-Like-A-Pirate Rag

Original lyrics here:
The Fish Cheer & I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixin'-To-Die Rag
( Note: The original version's original recording had "WOO-HOO!" after "What are we fighting for?" -- that's why I put "YO-HO!" after my parody's "Watery fights galore!" )

Temporary free MP3 of OS here:
*Country Joe switched verses 2 and 3 with each other in this live performance & omitted the "WOO-HOO!" after "What are we fighting for?"*

( Red Ant: Please keep that comment about verses 2 & 3 & the "WOO-HOO!" in the URL-label for the MP3 -- and, please keep my note about the WOO-HOO and YO-HO as well ... thanks!  :)  )

Would this suffice:

The Argh Cheer & I-Feel-Like-A-Pirate Rag by Johnny D

OS and a few notes here.

Or, I can keep it as you typed it (minus the note to me), though the size adjustment on the parody URL will be stripped out when its posted on the voting thread.

I guess I'll allow bold, italics, and underline only for descriptions, lyrics or soundfiles on the voting thread. Parody names will appear only in 10 point print (unless someone proposes a rule change that passes) and with no other modifications, such as color, glow, scroll, etc.

If you guys and girls feel this warrants a vote or have a better idea, I'm all eyes.

I would prefer, if at all possible, if you can keep it as I typed it (minus my note to you), and adjust the type-sizes down to whatever you deem is appropriate --- and please feel free to switch bold and/or italic to regular typeface wherever you deem that's appropriate, too.

Thanks!  ;D

Like a few others, I only had one submission in June too, and it was a barbed satirical one, unlike the usual SOTM fare, but I don't want to be sitting on the SOTM sidelines, so here it is...

Well, here I am again in SOTM...how does this work again? ;)

after a late run of 6 parodies in 1 week I've decided to go with this one:

Good luck all!
