The Lyrics

My friend lives inside a
Pineapple under the sea
I know you've seen his show
It's the greatest thing on TV

I watch him everyday
I joined the SpongeBob fan-club
Saw the movie 30 times
I still have all the stubs

I'm gonna soak up the sponge
I'm gonna tell everyone to watch SpongeBob
I'm gonna tell 'em that
I'm his #1 fan
So come and join the clan
And watch SpongeBob
I'm gonna soak up the sponge
I'm gonna soak up the sponge

He's got a "krabby" job
Flips burgers all day long
Hopes to be manager
As long as nothing goes wrong

Just when his dreams were shot down
Plankton steals King Neptune's crown
SpongeBob must prove he's a man
And put a stop to Plankton's plan
Or his empire will expand

I'm gonna soak up the sponge
I'm gonna tell everyone to watch SpongeBob
I'm gonna tell 'em to
Buy all the DVDs
So the whole family
Can watch SpongeBob
I'm gonna soak up the sponge
While it's still on
I'm gonna soak up the sponge
So turn off that VH1

My friends think I'm a freak
Who watches too much SpongeBob
They say "Get off your butt, you're lazy
And go out and get a job"

Well Nickelodeon's gettin' rich
From sellin' out this SpongeBob flick
His face is on the things we wear
Like spandex, shoes, and underwear
SpongeBob is just everywhere!

I'm gonna soak up the sponge
I'm gonna tell everyone to watch SpongeBob
I'm gonna ask 'em to
Join my Goofy Goober crew
And you can be one too
Just watch SpongeBob
(I'm watchin' on)

I'm gonna soak up the sponge
I'm gonna tell everyone to love SpongeBob
I'm gonna threaten that
If they don't do as I say
I'm gonna make 'em all pay
For dissing SpongeBob
(Oh, yes I will)

I'm gonna soak up the sponge
I got my plasma-screen on so I
Can watch on...

(ends with trademark SpongeBob laugh)

From Scrawny Johnny's 3rd album-"Sharkbait" (formerly known as "Nevermind the Shark)

Good try... the pacing works, but the rhyming pattern is off, and it's not that funny.

Just listened to the OS - pacing off in spots, but funny!

Yeah, I kind of cheated on the pacing by slightly stretching some lines by an extra syllable. The main thing is that I'm just glad it's written and done with! The next parody I submit should be better.

Very good. I know enough about this show to vote this. Maybe if TSB wrote about this instead of Prarie Dawn and Sesame Street he'd get some votes. Gratz on the 3rd album. If you want to record these let me know as I have an outstanding voice ( though I have never tried to sing a Sheryl Crow song ) :)

I don't like SpongeBob or any other Nickelodeon shows. I'd rather watch something less annoying like VH1 or the old Disney Channel from before 1997.
