Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! - Part 67 From: Dharmabum Date: 08 Nov 01 - 02:46 PM JOHANN ZILLINGER (An outlaws Tale)
Sit back & listen
Johann Zillinger
Now he'd tried his hand
He said "I don't believe"
Soon he'd established
He'd steal anything
He'd rob anyone
Then one day he heard
So he bought him a ticket
So he trekked into the jungle
He bagged parakeets
When his bag was full
On his way back to town
He thought of disguises
"I know!",as an idea
So he started hiding
Parakeets in his armpits
And I can't even say
So there stood our Johann
As he got to the taxi
He was breaking a sweat
He thought"I can still make it"
Now ,with that & those birdies
He ran down the street
And now that you've heard
And I hear he gets visits DB. |

Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! - Part 67 From: MMario Date: 08 Nov 01 - 09:42 AM Just goes to show you that the challenges are just a take-off point. |
Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! - Part 67 From: Áine Date: 08 Nov 01 - 09:21 AM Uh, derrymacash -- did you have one too many uisce té at the pub last night? ;-) Or have you been hanging out with Jack the Sailor a bit too much? Woo - that one is hoot! Here's your Silver B.L.O.B. for these poetically pruient lines: With a cat in my hat and some bitches in my britches Cunningly concealed behind some decorative stitches I've got chicks in my knicks and - the very coup de grace! – I've got a hairy caterpillar hiding in my ass -- Áine |

Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! - Part 67 From: Áine Date: 07 Nov 01 - 05:52 PM Ah Clifton, that last one of yours is definitely Super Special Sandstone Sheila-Na-Gig Ocarina Award material!! And here's your Silver B.L.O.B. for: As they poked me and probed for their illegal smile I was laughin' and cussin' at them all the while For they'll never besmirch me or make me say "draw" " I'll tarnish their laurels" says Master McCaw. And Sonja -- 'B.L.O.B.' stands for 'Best Line O' Bull' -- get it? ;-) Now that you know, get to work on the itsy bitsy baby budgie song!! To Genie (with or without her cookie, she's a Winnah!) for this fantastic mental image: And those little baby budgies started hatchin' and a-chirpin' As he headed for the taxi stand. When his jockeys started burstin', and the parrots started cursin', He was clearly carryin' contraband. Way to go, Challenge!rs!! -- Áine

Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! - Part 67 From: GUEST,Genie Who can't find her cookie Date: 07 Nov 01 - 05:25 PM I've got to quit doing this, but this story just begs for songs. Here's another: T W A (Tune: M T A) Now let me tell you of the story of ein Herr called Johann But did he ever return? Oh, no he never returned, Johann stuffed those snakes into his socks inside his sneakers But did he ever return? Oh, no he never returned, Now all this beastly booty he had bought there in beautiful But did he ever return? Oh, no he never returned, Now, sitting right there at the bar at the Copa, And those little baby budgies started hatchin' and a-chirpin' So, did he ever return? Oh, no he never returned, Johann's wife flies down to Rio de Janiero So has he ever returned? Oh, no he never returned, Now, you folks who'd like to traffic in exotic beasties, And you'll never return, no, you'll never return, © 2001 Jeanene Pratt |

Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! - Part 67 From: GUEST,Sonja Date: 07 Nov 01 - 12:19 PM Thanks for the Silver B.L.O.B., Áine. (Dunno what it stands for, but it sounds like something good!) And thanks for the kudos, Clifton & MMario. BTW, that line is supposed to be "...And it removed all trace of doubt when a naked head poked out ..." (as opposed to "...trade of doubt..."). Mudcat, can you fix that boo-boo in the "Copa" song? Thanks. |

And thank you Aine, Blush blush, gush gush,

Two-thousand and one bein' the date of the year
I'm sure that young Buffet he sure would approve
I'm lovin' bejesus the danger so near
Now in South America anything goes
Now down by the 'Copa they gave me a knock
As they poked me and probed for their illegal smile Clifton

Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! - Part 67 From: Áine Date: 07 Nov 01 - 12:02 PM Yea Sonja! I was wondering when someone was gonna use the 'Copa' song ;-) Fine, fine job -- and here's your Silver B.L.O.B. for: Her name was Rita, she wore a wire. She sashayed over to his chair, when she saw the bulging there. She saw a flutter from near his putter, And it removed all trace of doubt when a naked head poked out With its beak open wide, its hunger not denied, Seeking food from the one who hatched it-- "Cheep! Cheep! Cheeeeeep," it cried! -- Áine |

My name is Johann Zillinger come listen to my tale
In Austria there are no beasts as tropical as these
Now smugglin' eggs is no small feat, it's somethin' you can't botch
I tucked the snakes and parrots down within me bags so stout
But how the story ends me boys, I really should explain Great work folks, Many laughs here Clifton |
Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! - Part 67 From: MMario Date: 07 Nov 01 - 08:33 AM LOL! (literaly, good thing my co-workers are used to me.) |

Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! - Part 67 From: Genie Date: 07 Nov 01 - 02:44 AM Mudself, if you are there, can you insert the word "in" in the third line of the above song? It should read, "...against a brazen Austrian in flight ...".
Also, less important, but the title should be bold, too.
Thanks, Genie |
Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! - Part 67 From: Genie Date: 07 Nov 01 - 02:35 AM With The Eggs Tucked In His Underwear (Tune: Anne Boleyn) In the town of Rio Wednesday night A charge of animal trafficking was made Against a brazen Austrian in flight Engaging in the stolen critter trade. Chorus: With the eggs tucked in his underwear He crossed the borderline Till the birds hatched in his underwear He was doing just fine! He's going to cross the border with a boa in his brief- Case, and scads of parrots in his bags, 'cause he's a thief, And just in case the customs agents try to give him grief, He's got the eggs tucked in his underwear. Inside his brand new attaché, he's got snake or two, And in his trunk four parakeets he purchased in Peru, But it's awfully awkward for the bloke when he has to use the loo With the eggs tucked in his underwear. Chorus Sometimes Brazilian coppers get a tip From nameless pals and gals that they have bought. They've seen suspicious bulges near the hips, And, Voila!, Señor Zillinger is caught! "Hold it, bud!" The federales shout, And twenty-one Macaws come flying out. Chorus The day they cornered Johann, he was in the Copa bar A-stuffing beer nuts in his pants (we noticed from afar!)-- It seems he'd spawned a parakeet maternity ward Where there were eggs tucked in his underwear! Chorus The waitresses just thought he was an ordinary guy, But when they saw those bulges in his pants, they said, "Oh, my! It must be Long Dong Silver!" He induced a thousand sighs, When the snake snuck into his underwear! Genie html fixed per request by mudelf ;-) |

Listen to the cop that frisked me in Rio All God's critters got ... . Smuggling in the night time, smuggling in the day; All God's critters got ... . It's a smuggler's life, critter crap everywhere, All God's critters got ... . © 2001 Jeanene Pratt |

Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! - Part 67 From: Kim C Date: 06 Nov 01 - 05:02 PM ALEX!!!!! Heeheeheeheeeheheeeheeeee!!!!!!!!! :-D This is something that must happen fairly often. A few months ago I heard a story about a woman arrested for smuggling snakes in her brazzer. I tried to look for it on the Net to send to Aine but I never could find it. This one is just as good, though. I used to have a budgie. I don't think I'll ever look at budgies the same again... |
Subject: RE: SONG CHALLENGE! - Part 67 From: MMario Date: 06 Nov 01 - 04:38 PM I HOPE THEY DON'T HATCH NOW (Tune: Itches in me britches) I came from out the jungle, on a hot and humid day Went to the Rio airport, for to go along my way; I hadn't heard of nine-one-one, while up the Amazon Thought I'd breeze through customs, like whistle-ing a song! Chorus: I hope they don't hatch now, God, I hope they don't hatch now! I got itches in me britches, God! I hope they don't hatch now! They opened up my luggage, they took out all my loot; Pawed through all my t-shirts and my sunday suit They found the anaconda, and the crested green Macaw; I had bought in Belen city for to sell in Austria Chorus: A reticulated python was a-sleeping in my trunk And several baby monkeys, amongst the other junk But they didn't check my thermos, so I guess they didn't find The amazon blue tetras that I had slipped inside Chorus: The custom men all chuckled , when I had to strip To see the roll of socks, when my pants I did unzip. Let them laugh, and think I'm vain, my crotch to pad and puff My family jewels were sharin' space with some really fancy stuff! Chorus: For trafficking in animals, exotic rich and rare The authorities in Rio have sentenced me to a punishment "most quare" The roll of socks which once I wore, with budgie eggs within Now holds some snapping turtle eggs against my tender skin! Chorus: x2 |
