"Hey there Lil'Lisa" (parody of "Hey there Deliliah")

Post by J2 » Wed Jun 25, 2008 11:53 am

Hey there Lill'Lisa
What's it like to be my sibling
In the room a just steps away
You play that sax, so irritating
Yes you do.
You make jazz so annoying, yes you do
Rock'N Roll Rules

Here there Lill'Lisa
Don't you worry about an A-Minus
I'm the one who gets yelled at
Because I didn't get higher than D-Plus
You're very Wise
By age 21 you'll win a Nobel Prize
Without any Bribes...

Oh, it's how you upstage me
Oh, it's how you upstage me
Oh, it's how you upstage me
Oh, it's how you upstage me
Oh, it's how you...

Hey there Lil'Lisa
Being my sister is very hard
Trapped between Me and Lil'Maggie,
You stand out with your report card
And you'll see so many things
While I work at Krustyburger
Making onion rings

Hey there Lil'Lisa
I might mock you every day
But you've been by my side thru thick'n thin
Helping me along the way
And that is true
Being the Greener, enviormentalist
Is what you do.

Oh, it's how you upstage me
Oh, it's how you upstage me
Oh, it's how you upstage me
Oh, it's how you upstage me
Oh, it's how you upstage me

Back on your eighth birthday
I got Leon to compose a tune
That would brighten up your day
We wrote it all
I'd write another tune when demand would call
I'd have a ball.

In 20 years we'll look back and laugh
At how you did my homwork, mostly  math
I'd hug you and recollect the times
Of how we rode the bus, or when Homer whined
We played with Maggie until she pooped
Only siblings could feel this way
Lil'Lisa I can safely tell you
By the time Graduation's through
Our world will never be the same,
Our coming of age will have "came."

Hey there Lil'Lisa
I wrote this song just to tell'ya
That when we're done in school and out on our own
Just look at my picture
So you don't feel so empty, or alone
We can do whatever we want to
Hey ther Lil'Lisa here's to you.
This song's for you.

Oh, it's how you upstage me
Oh, it's how you upstage me
Oh, it's how you upstage me

This was really fun, Jake!  A nice, solid translation of the song into parody form!

I'm glad you like it.  :)

Here's the last parody for a bit..."Sorry" originally done by Buckcherry, but this one's also entitled "Sorry" and it's sung by Homer. 

Note, the stuff in italics are spoken segments.

Oh, I had a lot to eat,
Little vegitables, and mostly grease.
Jenny Craig made my dinner very lame
And so I had to try and improvise,
With a Whopper Meal, super-sized

I'm sorry I'm fat, I'm sorry I'm huge
I'm sorry about all the weight I didn't loose
And I know I'll just gain it back
I love how you wish, I was less than 200 pounds
And after three push ups, I just fall to the ground
And I just wanted to say, I'm sorry...

This time, socitiey's to blame
In just two weeks I gained 10 pounds
Playing the new G.T.A. 360 Game
'Cause I should've picked up Wii Sports that's right
And when I hear the scale go 'sigh' it makes me wanna cry

I'm sorry I'm fat, I'm sorry I'm huge
I'm sorry about all the weight I didn't loose
And I know I'll just gain it back
I love how you wish, I was less than 200 pounds
And after three push ups, I just fall to the ground
And I just wanted to say, I'm sorry...

Every single day i think about how I gained this weight
Cases of Duff and the salty pork rines
And Some "3 Musketeers",  very deep fried
Marge, I have to go to the store!

(MARGE: Homer!) :mad:

Oh yeah, sorry...

(HOMER: Okay, Marge...)  :-/

I'm sorry i'm fat, I'm sorry I'm huge
I'm sorry for not staying in shape for you
And I know I should take up track
I love how you kiss, despite all my pounds
And I promise I'll be in shape other than round
And I just wanted to say, I'm sorry
I'm sorry Margie,
I'm sorry baby...
I'm sorry.

(HOMER: Marge, can we have extra-large shakes for dinner?)  ;)

Song Parody #3:  Marge's "Bad Day"

Where is my Homie when I need him the most?
I picked up the kids and burned up the Roast...
Bart's been in detention till Six today
Lisa's free sax lessons have gone away
And Homie's still ain't home...

I went to the bank and I'm overdrawn
I can't my kids to clean up the lawn
Homer's still drowning his sorrows down at Moes
What he does at work, no one knows...
And Homie's still ain't home.

Because I had a bad day
The Kids missed the bus
I wish Bart would stop saying "Because...?"
I always ask "why?"
I wish this housewife had more pride
I had a bad day
The Radar don't lie
Another speeding ticked to add to the pile
I had a bad day
I had a bad day

I sometimes need to to just get away
So bad, even Shelbyville seems okay
And Homie's still ain't home...

Because I had a bad day
The Kids missed the bus
I wish Bart would stop saying "Because...?"
I always ask "why?"
I wish this housewife had more pride
I had a bad day
The Radar don't lie
Another speeding ticked to add to the pile
I had a bad day
I had a bad day

Sometimes me and Homie share a drink
And the whole night becomes real long
I forget about the day's problems,
That make me feel like I don't belong
And I'm wrong.

(yeah...)

So, where is that Bissel when I need it the most?
I cleaned up the floor and now my contact is lost.

Because I had a bad day
The Kids missed the bus
I wish Bart would stop saying "Because...?"
I always ask "why?"
I wish this housewife had more pride
I had a bad day
The Radar don't lie
Another speeding ticked to add to the pile
I had a bad day
I had a bad day

I haven't heard most of the originals to these (though I'm grateful that you made me go check out "Hey There, Delilah" on Youtube), but I quite like these filk lyrics. Particularly the third one is quite touching, but they're all pretty good. (The end of the first verse of the first song is also great.) You have some typoes, though, and a couple of cases where a word seems to be missing. Perhaps you need to read through them with a critical eye.

I'm glad someone's writing filk here. That's always fun.
