Weird Al > James Blunt : "You're Pitiful"

Post by Bounty »

Scroll down for links to the MP3 (his official site links to them, so I guess it's OK to download them)
My life is brilliant
(What? Was I too early? I'm sorry... Should I... Do you want to start over, or?... Keep going? ... OK now, now?)

My life is brilliant
Your life's a joke
You're just pathetic
You're always broke

Your homemade Star Trek uniform
Really ain't impressin me
You're suffering from delusions of adequacy

You're pitiful. You're pitiful. You're pitiful. It's true
Never had a date that you couldn't inflate
And you smell repulsive too
What a bummer being you

Well you just can't dance
And forget romance
Everybody you know
Still calls you farty pants

But you always have a job
Well, I mean
As long as you still can work that Slurpee machine

You're pitiful. You're pitiful. You're pitiful. It's true
You're half undressed
Eatin chips off your chest
While you're playin Halo 2
No one's classier than you

la la la la
la la la la
la la la la ...loser

You're pitiful. You're pitiful. You're pitiful. It's true
Your dog would much rather play fetch by itself
You still live with your mom and you're 42
Guess you'll never grow a clue
Well it just sucks to be you

Much better than the original. Not to mention you know that pop music has taken yet another turn for the stupid when a singer bills himself as James "Blunt." James Cunt is more like it.

Long live Weird Al!

The sad thing is that Blunt the Nearly-Castrato is still more badass then most American rappers. He may sing like he got the family jewels stuck on barb wire, he's still a war vet.

It's not. He was born as James Hillier-Blount.

That's fantastic! Especially this bit:

(What? Was I too early? I'm sorry... Should I... Do you want to start over, or?... Keep going? ... OK now, now?)
I think that everytime the song comes on the radio. :D

Of course, Blount is pronounced as "Blunt". So it's more of a change to match pronounciation.

"The Night Santa Went Crazy" all the way, baby!

Down in the workshop, all the elves were makin' toys...
For the good Gentile girls and the good Gentile boys....
When the Boss busted in, he nearly scared em' half to death....
Had a rifle in his hands, and cheap whiskey on his breath...

From his beard to his boots, he was covered in ammo...
Like a big fat drunk, disgruntled, Yultide Rambo
And he smiled and he said - with a twinkle in his eye...
"Merry Christmas to all - NOW YOU'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Um... With one exception, Weird Al always gets permission to make a parody of a song. Hell, most artists consider it an honor for Weird Al to parody them.

So what? Do you not understand that he created that song? That the original music was written by someone else is irrelevant because it was copied under parody. There is no clause saying that you have to charge money for a parody to be considered a parody.
