The Lyrics
Every time I hear CD's
I'm reminded of the LP's I used to play
For I still have my old phonograph
And the worn out plastic albums, all stored away
I tried to play them, with all those clicks and pops
But I can't take it
I want that scratchy sound to sto-o-o-op
It didn't used to hurt my ears
But then neither did those beers, I drank with you
I like them here to have and hold
As the vinyl rots and gets all moldy gray
Now my collection has been sold on Ebay
And now I've nothing but a hundred bucks today
Every time I hear CD's
I'm reminded of the LP's I gave away
For I still have my old phonograph
And the worn out plastic albums, I cannot play
I'm reminded of the LP's I used to play
For I still have my old phonograph
And the worn out plastic albums, all stored away
I tried to play them, with all those clicks and pops
But I can't take it
I want that scratchy sound to sto-o-o-op
It didn't used to hurt my ears
But then neither did those beers, I drank with you
I like them here to have and hold
As the vinyl rots and gets all moldy gray
Now my collection has been sold on Ebay
And now I've nothing but a hundred bucks today
Every time I hear CD's
I'm reminded of the LP's I gave away
For I still have my old phonograph
And the worn out plastic albums, I cannot play

Time to Face the Vinyl Frontier.
I had put all of my old LPs into my basement and, they all got mould. I had to throw out about 400 of them. Live and learn. 555
I've never owned a record, but I still really like this parody. 555's
Long time, no talk...I'm actually using all my old vinyl LP's...I have them under my CD player Speakers (they are 'shelf-size') so that they are high enough for the sound to go directly at my mic head...for those voice-overlays you hate so much...lol...but it keeps them nice and dry, anyway. 5's on this one...
Paul, Hi. What's up with Whatfreaks? And when are we goin' out on a double date?
Good parody - fun to sing. Am I the only one who still uses her turntable?
