The Lyrics
A story about a guy's hopelessy dim-witted brother.
Sometime in the mornin'
Probably half past nine
I'm eating my breakfast
There's sleep still in my eyes
In comes my dumb brother
His brains aren't up to much
Still he asks a question
"Is it school today or what?"
Boy, what a moron
"It's half past nine
If school was on we'd be in trouble"
He just chuckles, says "Oh, right"
Tries to make his breakfast
And it's gonna take a while
I'd get up and stop him
But that git makes me smile
Poor sod burns his toast up
Nearly the whole house too
Can't pour his milk, cuz he will miss
What a sill goose
Boy, what a moron
IQ of five
Tried to make friends with a rabid dog
I'm suprised he's still alive
Boy, what a moron
Light on his feet
Don't mean he can dance, he's clumsy-ass
He can barely walk ten feet
I don't need a movie
To have a quick laugh
But I do have a brother
Laugh so hard I nearly barf
Poster boy for morons
And if I hear a noise
That sounds like a head got smacked
I'll know that it's my boy
Boy, what a moron
Stupendous twit
On the doorframe his head'll be smackin'
There's a lot of dents in it
Boy, what a moron
He falls a lot
You would think that he'd have learnt by now
Not to run around in socks
Boy, what a moron
And it's for free
But if some other guys wanna watch
Then I charge 'em a small fee
Boy, what a moron
He doesn't care
Girls think he's adorable
There's some romance in the air...
Probably half past nine

Not based on either of my actual brothers, just so ya know.

Great job! Is this about Max Powder by any chance?
Not a bad CCR parody and it sounds like your brother's elevator doesn't quite make it to the top floor. I'll betcha that he thinks that a quarterback is some kind of refund and that he'd take toilet paper to a crap game.
COP - this parody seems to be rushed a bit. I found some pacing and mispellings and dropped letters in words - for instance:
Shouldn't "What a sill goose"read as follows:
"What a silly goose" ???
And you completely lost me wwith this one:
"But that git makes me smile"
Good effort - the theme is original and light but it appers that not enough time was devoted to writing it,.

Relative-ly speaking, good job. I'll be picking on mine Monday. ;)
Guy - 'git' is a British insult. No particular meaning, just a generic insult. I got it from Red Dwarf. If I knew how to ask Chucky G to change parodies, I'd ask him to change 'sill' to 'silly'.
And no, ?, it's not about Max Power (presumably that's who you meant by Max Powder). Don't know why you'd think that.
Funny story and works well with CCR
bobpiecheese - Andy Primus put me wise to the British slang for "git". (A footnote within this parody would have headed off any confusion) It makes sense to me now that I know what that word means.
Very funny stuff! Have a bro just like that. :-)
(Artistry) Really like the way you ended this one, and some clever lines throughout. Good work.
I liked it as it progressed because you made it more silly, and not so personal.
If every family has one of each of these brothers, I wonder which one was my brother... Oh wait. He was the git! Stop wondering! Stop it! Now! Good job. Fun read.
(ART) - Oh, BROTHER, that was funny!!!
I've known my share of stupid people before and your brother takes the cake... This was pretty good Cop, one of your better ones.
Funny work, tcop. Excellent variation of the choruses. I had some problem singing this over TOS, but imo most CCR songs are hard to make the pacing bulletproof (ditto Elton John).
(Artistry) Pacing took a hit here TCOP, but the comedy almost totally made me forget about it. Strengthen your pacing, and you have a home run here, still as is read as a funny write to a song that I am so sick of after hearing it just twice. . .
