Subject: RE: Mad Magazine parodies
I don't know why I remember these lyrics. And I'm only 90% sure they were from a MAD parody. But here goes, anyway ...

To the tune of "Honey" (Bobby Goldsboro's treacly sweet hit):


See the tree, how big it's grown
Since Honey babe left it alone
It might survive

She messed with it so much that it's
A miracle the blasted tree
Is still alive

And it would sure embarrass her
When I'd come home from workin' late
'Cause I would know

That she'd been sittin' there all evenin'
Swillin' down a great big bottle
Of Old Crow

I came home unexpectedly
And caught her necking shamelessly
With Fred one day

And it was in the early spring
When flowers bloom and birdies sing
They went away

And Honey I miss you
Like a hole in the head
And I hope you are happy
With creepy old Fred!
