Subject: ADD Parody: Lily of the Net
There is (by "somebody", which should be helpful) a parody, called "The Lily of the Net". Some sample lyrics:

When first I cruised the internet
Some pleasure there to find
A damsel there from AOL
Was pleasin' to my mind.

The narrator falls in love with Flora, visits her website, is stricken by the gorgeous photo there of the Lily of the Net, and arranges to meet her.

She is fat and sloppy, and only vaguely resembles the picture.

The picture was her daughter,
A twelve-year-old nymphette.
I was betrayed by Flora, the Lily of the Net!

A real hoot!
