What Are Words For (VIRUS FREE!) (10/9)

[Railyn]

I missed Weird Al Wednesday this week due to the QHost-1 virus, but after reading H2's post this evening, I have to do this one for him.

It's a parody of a song that I grew weary of, and had to laugh because the agony of having to hear the original over and over put me in mind of this topic:

CAVITY SEARCH
Parody Of: Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me by U2
By: Weird Al Yankvoic
Album: Bad Hair Day
Author: A. Yankovic

Listen to the Muzak
Hearin' people scream
Sittin' in the waiting room
Readin' crappy magazines
With a toothache
This is it, pal
Root Canal

My molars are impacted
I'm gettin' gum disease
I'm gonna need some fillings
Got twelve cavities
Can you help me
Have mercy
Doctor, please

My teeth are a fright
Got a huge overbite
Numb me, drill me
Floss me, bill me

You jab at my nerve endings
It's driving me insane
Just give me nitrous oxide
Shoot me up with novocaine
Help me out here
'Cause I'm so severe
Pain

Please stop for a bit
Let me rinse and spit
Numb me, drill me
Floss me, bill me

You validate my parking
I think that I'm okay
But you make one more appointment for
A week from Saturday
'Cause you came upon
A problem on
My x-ray
Oy vey!

I'm getting absurd
Well, I hope I'm insured, now
Numb me, drill me
Floss me, bill me


My Opinion In A Nutshell: The original was so overkilled around here that I likened it to getting my teeth scraped after awhile. Lots of vivid imagery here.

Favorite Line: "Listen to the Muzak
Hearin' people scream
Sittin' in the waiting room
Readin' crappy magazines"

Hey thanks, Railyn. I appreciate it. It's Friday afternoon now, and I'm doing lots better. (although I am playing hookey from work.)

- Well I WAS doing a lot better until I read the lyrics. I know the song, of course. I have it on a compilation I got from someone or other. ;D (Ouch! It still hurts to grin.)

But anyway, the lyrics sound a lot different after you've had dental work. I don't think I like them anymore. ;D OUCH! (I've gotta stop doing that)
