The Lyrics

havent we all done this in our past??
she danced a big wide tango
darn near went through the floor
I was feeling I would be sick
when the food came, she had more
her butt becoming larger
as her belt loops start to fray
and we called out for another drink
chocolate milk and gatorade

and so we went home later
can't believe I lived this tale
I'm like Ahab, ashamed mostly,
bout the night I laid a whale


------ organ solo ------

in to her bed I was a squeezin
she took it up, it was a queen
and I flipped right through her menu cards
just to see the thing's she'd eat
caviar from 6 foot sturgeons
caught off the jersey coast
and when the restaurant opened
she ordered half a loaf of toast

and so we went home later
can't believe I lived this tale
I'm like Ahab, ashamed mostly,
bout the night I laid a whale

Funny tale - if she rolled on top of you, you might turn a whiter shade of pale.

One big fat funny parody! I'm not quite a whale yet, but I'm working on it. For now, I am merely a walrus...coo coo ca choo! ;D

I shouldn't laugh at that, but I can't help it. Random puns to be made here ...

Did she enjoy the humpback?

Something something sperm?

When the bed rocked, did it make a noise like "orca orca orca orca orca"

I'll stop now.

Hope you had a whale of a time

I can't believe you (or even McKludge) failed to work the word "blowhole" in there! Or would that have made this drift over into dear departed "WhatFreaks"?

I understand your version better than the original. Not the first time that has happened.
adagio - January 12, 2010 - Report this comment
That is a more understandable version than the song, and a good one at that. I'm working on another one by them...lets hope (it wont!!) make sense.

This one's a kind of guity pleasure, malc...I know I shouldn't find it funny, but goshdarn, it is! And the title sub was brilliant. A shamefaced set of 5s
MasonR - January 13, 2010 - Report this comment
I echo (echo, echo) what everyone said about this making more sense than the OS and agree with Kristof--you had me at the subhead. Brilliant word switches here, very whale done!
