Huckleberry Pie Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I've read the Series of Unfortunate Events books recently, and so I decided to whip up some spoof lyrics from a Queen song: [Violet] Is this the real life? Is this from Lemony? Our life just messed up, Wish this is just a comedy. Oh what a life, Look into my bro and 'sis, I'm just a rich girl, I'm in a tragedy, I guess it's easy come, man it blows, Outta' luck, kinda owned, I've heard that Count Olaf, Just wants to steal money from me, from me. [Klaus] Olaf, just killed a man, Put a harpoon on a guy, Pulled the trigger, now he died. Olaf, he had blown our home, So now I'm gone and broke and ran away. Mama, ooh, didn't mean to leave you pied, I would've came back home that time for dinner, I dunno, 'bout the Count, but he just wants all our money. Too late, ol' Poe has come, It's chilling on my mind, when our mansion blew that time. Goodbye, my dear lib'ry, I have to go, Gotta leave you with my 'sis and go somewhere. Sunny, ooh, I don't wanna cry, I sometimes think I'd live in the streets at all.* [siblings] I see a lardy silhouetto of a man, Mr. Poe, Mr. Poe, will you give us some bank notes? Theatre troupe and arson, very, very fright'ning me! Punctilio! Punctilio! Punctilio! Punctilio! Punctilio, V.F.D. Sensational. [Klaus] I'm just a rich nerd and somebody slapped me. [Henchmen] He's just a poor nerd from a rich family, Living their lives in a darned travesty. [Klaus] Outta luck, outta buck, will you let me go? [Henchmen] Count Olaf! No, we will not let you go! [siblings] Let us go! [Henchmen] Count Olaf! We will not let you go! [sunny] Let him go! [Henchmen] Count Olaf! We will not let you go! [sunny] Let me go! [Henchmen] Will not let you go! [Violet] Let me go! [Henchmen] Will not let you go! [siblings] Let me go! Ah... [Henchmen] No, no, no, no, no, no, no. [siblings] Oh puttanesca, puttanesca! Uncle Olaf, let us go. [Klaus] Aunt Josephine has a drumset put aside for me, for me, for me... [Klaus] So you think you can fool me with your thin disguise? So you think you can slap me and leave me to die? Oh, Sunny, won't let you mess up, Sunny, Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here. [Violet] He just wants our money, Lemony can see, He just wants our money, He just wants our money, from me. Anyway, this book slows. * The Bad Beginning, chapter five - "Clearly, we cannot stay here any longer. I would rather take my chances on the streets than live in this terrible place..." What do you guys think? God Bless an enjoy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huckleberry Pie Posted January 20, 2010 Author Share Posted January 20, 2010 That just made the series that much better for me! Good job with that! Really nice. Keep up the good work mate. Thanks guys. I'm currently into lampooning the overly-GTA IV'sh tone of Lemony Snicket's works, you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickS Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 That's an awesome parody! It would be really funny if it was made into a video! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Pie Posted January 23, 2010 Author Share Posted January 23, 2010 (edited) Here's another one; I find the song that was used in the Littlest Elf intro to the Lemony Snicket movie quite funny, so it had to be re-done, Grand Theft Auto style... The original song was also used in the Michael Moore documentary "Sicko". GOD Bless and enjoy! Some cynical Serbian is shooting some goons Rifles-and-bullets all spray and then, boom! Bursting in flames, all my cars in this game It's a Liberty, felony spree Cops, FBI, SWAT teams, they swarm all day long Coming, they join in the robbery throng Niko and Jacob are jacking away It's a Liberty, felony spree In the city we play there's a deathmatch all day With gamers and cheaters and griefers Yeah, nobody cares and there's hax in the air And cheating is all but malicious My criminal level is five in a row Killing and pimping and stealing 'fo 'sho Liberty City's so fun to explore It's a Liberty, felony, Li-li-li-liberty, Li-li-li-liberty spree!
