The Lyrics
I saw a werewolf with a yarmulke on his head,
Spying out the streets of L.A. in his van -
He was checking out the delis for kosher meat,
Schlepping loaves of challah and a Danish in his hand.
Oooiiiiyyy - werewolves of Wilshire - oooiiiiyyy!
Oooiiiiyyy - werewolves of Fairfax - oooiiiiyyy!
You hear him howling around your grocery store,
You better not let him in -
Someone stole the kishka from the butcher shop last night -
Werewolves of Fairfax again!
Oooiiiiyyy - werewolves of Wilshire - oooiiiiyyy!
Oooiiiiyyy - werewolves of Fairfax - oooiiiiyyy! Vaht?!
He's an ordinary guy who wouldn't catch your eye -
He might even be your doctor.
But on a full moonlit night,
He'll clean out your fridge, all right -
But you're safe if it's Yom Kippur.
Oooiiiiyyy - werewolves of Wilshire - oooiiiiyyy!
Oooiiiiiyyy - werewolves of Fairfax - oooiiiiyyy!
Well, I saw Mike Landon talking with the mayor,
Doing the werewolves of Fairfax.
I saw Warren Zevon talking with the mayor,
Doing the werewolves of Fairfax.
I saw a werewolf making enchiladas with kosher meat -
And his Spanish was fluent.
Oooiiiiiyyy - werewolves of Wilshire - oooiiiiiyyy! Vaht?! Eat up!
Oooiiiiiyyy - werewolves of Fairfax.
Spying out the streets of L.A. in his van -
He was checking out the delis for kosher meat,
Schlepping loaves of challah and a Danish in his hand.
Oooiiiiyyy - werewolves of Wilshire - oooiiiiyyy!
Oooiiiiyyy - werewolves of Fairfax - oooiiiiyyy!
You hear him howling around your grocery store,
You better not let him in -
Someone stole the kishka from the butcher shop last night -
Werewolves of Fairfax again!
Oooiiiiyyy - werewolves of Wilshire - oooiiiiyyy!
Oooiiiiyyy - werewolves of Fairfax - oooiiiiyyy! Vaht?!
He's an ordinary guy who wouldn't catch your eye -
He might even be your doctor.
But on a full moonlit night,
He'll clean out your fridge, all right -
But you're safe if it's Yom Kippur.
Oooiiiiyyy - werewolves of Wilshire - oooiiiiyyy!
Oooiiiiiyyy - werewolves of Fairfax - oooiiiiyyy!
Well, I saw Mike Landon talking with the mayor,
Doing the werewolves of Fairfax.
I saw Warren Zevon talking with the mayor,
Doing the werewolves of Fairfax.
I saw a werewolf making enchiladas with kosher meat -
And his Spanish was fluent.
Oooiiiiiyyy - werewolves of Wilshire - oooiiiiiyyy! Vaht?! Eat up!
Oooiiiiiyyy - werewolves of Fairfax.

like his hair, your parody was...perfect
like this
Hi larious...line #4 was too long, but I'll still grant you a 555. Kudos for also adding Warren to the last verse, and parodying the adlibs. (i always wondered what he was sputtering towards the end...maybe he was just a little verklempt?)
fly like a bagel
Great parody to a great old tune by a great old artist. 555
Real Biting satire...unique conception
I agree. This kind of song is great. In the LOTR books though they don't have werewolves they have "Wargs".
