The Lyrics

The love story of Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson told through song (at least how I imagined it :) )
Verse 1: Mary is my crush
Well she’s always been a big crush of mine
But lately something’s changed
Due to a spider bite
Mary’s going out with Harry
But I’ll win her heart this time
And I’m watching her all the time
And I’m savin’ her bottom but she just don’t know it
Yeah, and he’s holdin’ her in his arms late late at night

Chorus: You know I wish that I had Harry’s girl
I wish that I had Harry’s girl
Swing down and save this girl ten times

Verse 2: I’ll play along this hero game
It doesn’t seem too smart to remain the same
You know I felt so fuzzy when we kissed upside down
I wanna tell her that I love her, but Peter is just a clown
And I’m watching her all the time
And I’m savin’ her bottom but she just don’t know it
Yeah, and he’s holdin’ her in his arms late late at night

Chorus: You know I wish that I had Harry’s girl
I wish that I had Harry’s girl
Swing down and save this girl ten times
That Harry’s girl
I wish that I had Harry’s girl
Swing down and save this girl ten times
Swoop in and save this girl each night

Bridge: And I’m swinging through the city every night
Wonderin’ what she don’t see in me
I’ve been funny
I’ve been nice, always kind
Ain’t that the way love’s supposed to be?

Tell me, where will I save this girl next time!?

[Spider web guitar solo!!!!]

Chorus: You know I wish that I had Harry’s girl
I wish that I had Harry’s girl
I want Harry’s girl!
Swing down and save this girl ten times
That Harry’s girl
I wish that I had Harry’s girl
I want, I want Harry’s girl!

Ah, I see... I thought this was going to be about Harry Potter.

I loved this one! For some reason I thought it was going to be about Prince Harry, but I like this idea better. 555

Who would have thought that Peter Parker could get so jealous!?

Wait, I thought this was going to be about Harry Truman.

I also thought this was going to be about Harry Potter, but I'm glad it isn't because I really can't stand the little wizard. Nice work here!

I thought this was going to be a mash note for Prince Harry's girl!

(AofA) I really like how the mood of this song is so consistent with that of the OS. However there's a flip side to that coin. The mood and idea is so similar that the parody almost reads exactly like the original. I would've liked some more variation, but it's still good.

Ages...I was anticipating Harry Potter, too...couldn't figure out who Mary was in the first line. haha. I'm slow, okay? This was fun, though...love the OS!

(Ages) Wish you could've used something else in place of "bottom", cuz that just ruins the mood. That said, nice interpretation on the whole Peter-MJ-Harry love triangle thing. 555!

I thought Harry Potter too, but nice job going the Spidey route.

(SOTM) This one really trapped me in the web!! Love Spider-Man and love that love story between Peter and MJ! Well, eventually Spidey and MJ end up together anyway. Slinging 555 webs for this love triangle!

Dunno, Spidey parodies dont do much for me. Quoting verbatim 'In his arms late, late at night' from the OS didnt help either.

(ABC) You've "spun" a wild tale on this parody "Web"site!
