The Lyrics
He's such a mellow dude,
He never whines,
Not even when his thumb is screwed.
He's still smilin',
In thumbscrew, smilin'.
You know he can stand it
When it is screwed down--
Not even a hand squeeze
As it smashes his thumb, clampin' down.
He's such a mellow dude,
He never whines,
He had to,
He had to,
He had to,
Hear Yoko Ono howl
Once; wasn't spared
From hearing her shrieks,
Screeches and growls.
He heard her!
It was pure hell; thumb screwed,
By contrast--fine!
[fade on Yoko Ono and a listener screeching, respectively, discordantly and in abject pain]
He never whines,
Not even when his thumb is screwed.
He's still smilin',
In thumbscrew, smilin'.
You know he can stand it
When it is screwed down--
Not even a hand squeeze
As it smashes his thumb, clampin' down.
He's such a mellow dude,
He never whines,
He had to,
He had to,
He had to,
Hear Yoko Ono howl
Once; wasn't spared
From hearing her shrieks,
Screeches and growls.
He heard her!
It was pure hell; thumb screwed,
By contrast--fine!
[fade on Yoko Ono and a listener screeching, respectively, discordantly and in abject pain]

I see that you have alot of parodies of this song up today, unfortunetly, I don't know the song, so no vote. Still, I'm amazed that you came up with this many parodies to just one song.
Stephen, unfortunately this is only the beginning. Ten yesterday, ten today, and more to come.
Is this song about John Lennon? I asked because he married Yoko Ono and he seemed to be on the mellow side. This is funny. BTW, Yoko Ono sings like a dog, her voice sounds like fingernails on the blackboard, and sounds like a dying parrot. However I only like two songs from her. Keep it up! 555.
Captain Jack, this spell from Madame YoKo-OhNo put John where he is (where ever that may be) today!
