The Lyrics

I loved to work at Boston U.
With germs that can attack
Until one day, to my dismay,
My air-pack sprung a crack

Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Tu-la-reee---e-mia-
-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
My air-pack sprung a crack

I love to juggle all the bugs
That could lay waste to man
No vaccine, drugs, or feral pugs,
Could stand what's in my hands

Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Tu-la-reee---e-mia-
-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
No feral pugs could stand

Overhead the crop-dusters
Could spray these bugs of death
And then Bill Murray's Ghost-Busters
Could clean-up what was left

Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Tu-la-reee---e-mia-
-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Bill Murray's dog-like breath

Oh may I go a-blundering
In B.U.'s pressured labs
'Til germ-bombs go a-thundering
And we're all under slabs

Tu-la-reee---e-mia
Tu-la-reee---e-mia-
-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)-uh!(*cough*)
Tu-la-reee---e-mia
My air-pack sprung a crack!

As a B.U. alumnus, I'm donating 555 to this hilarious parody.

Thanks, JB. The fun thing about being "on sabbatical" is that if inspiration strikes, you can go with it, if and when you feel like it!

As you've seen, I am no longer doing my former "post-several-parodies-every-week" thing ... however, that doesn't mean I won't post a parody when a fun idea comes along.

(Classifieds) I read the news story in the link - I noticed the date was Jan 19 2005, the same day you posted this. Quick jump on this. Level 5 quarantine won't hold this one back!

(classifieds) - typical flawless pacing JD, and that Bill Murray Ghostbusters bit was brilliant - 555

Wunderschön (I know the OS in German, as it happens)... I missed this first time around: I've been thinking about this song for a while, but haven't had anything obvious to do with it. Nice one, JD :-)
