I got this in my e-mail today. I hope that I have managed to put it in the right format, and that it is appropriate to be placing here.
kindest regards
Patrish

Too late, my dinner's gone
Sends shivers up my spine
Rectum aching all the time
Goodbye every bhaji, I've got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and use the loo
Naan – aa, ooh ooh
This Dopiaza's mild
I sometimes wish we'd never come here at all


(guitar solo)


I see a little chicken tikka on the side
Rogan Josh, Rogan Josh
Pass the chutney made of mango
Vindaloo does nicely
Very, very spicey ME

Biryani, (Biryani)
Biryani, (Biryani)
Biryani and a naan
(A vindaloo loo looo)
I've eaten balti, somebody help me
He's eaten balti, get him to a lavatory
Stand you well back
Cause this loo is quarantined
Here it comes, there it goes,

I chunder
No !
It's coming up again
(There he goes) I chunder
It's coming up again
(There he goes) It's coming up again
(Up again)
Here it comes again
(No no no no no non o no no No )
On my knees, I'm on my knees, I'm on my knees
Oh there he goes
This vindaloo
Is about to wreck my guts
Poor me… Poor me… Poor me…


(guitar solo)


So you think you can chunder and still it's alright ?
So you want to eat curry and drink beer all night ?
Ooh maybe, now you'll puke like a baby
Just had to come out
Just had to come right out in here


(guitar solo)

Korma, saag or bhuna
Balti, naan, bhaji
Nothing makes a difference
Nothing makes a difference to me
(Anyway, my wind blows)

(fixed by a Joe clone... you only need to put line breaks at the end of a line, if you put them at the start of the next line too... you get a paragraph break)

Mbo - don't you ever have classes? (just curious)

I don't know the original song, but thought this was actually quite clever.....

The original song is called "bohemian rhapsody" and was performed by queen a long time ago

Mario, I have a student work-study job as a computer lab monitor and technition of sorts-that goes from 7:50-10:50, so I'm on Mudcat, waiting for problems to occur, or someone to require my assistance. I'm out at noon today because Ethno class was an optional review day. Needless to say, I didn't go. I've got that stuff down already. Also, I like parodies, but NOT raunchy or disgusting ones.

HEY! 1975 wasn't THAT long ago! Sure, I wasn't born yet, but don't make it sound like it was 100 years ago!

With your permission I would like to copy your version and send it on email to a few other Quenn friends of mine, I can assure you they would not take offence at this as they have just as warped sense of humour as myself.

What other parodies do you have ?

Diesel, Feel free, if I come across any other parodies I will post them. This one I thought was quite clever. have you tried singing it?
I am going on a singing weekend to the Forest of Dean, tomorrow and am going to photocopy about thirty copies and we will have a go at it - I'll let you know how we get on

Kindest regards

It's hard to parody a guy who used to throw parties at which he'd hire dwarves to carry trays of cocaine around...

Back when he was still alive of course

Yes it very easy Willie,especially when the oblect of the parody is to ridicule or imitate for fun.Nothing is even suggested about agreeing with a persons lifestyle or tastes.Most international artists have some area of life in which controversy is rife... doesn't mean you agree or not just shouldn't stop you listening or having fun by taking them off.
