The Lyrics
Probably one of the weirder songs I've written... Donald Duck and his family move to a town where people can't sleep because their beds are horrible and then this happens...
They’re after my down, down, down, down, down
Down, down
Because all the beds suck here in town
Town, town
Quack!!!
This really blows (Blows, blows)
I moved and made this town my home (Home, home)
Rotten pillows (Lows, lows)
Are cases stuffed with filthy clothes
They’re out of their minds
Don’t you freaks know about my fame?
So get your hands off of me
All of you damn dirty apes!!!
Shoulda stayed with Mickey
Now my life is tricky
These sleepers are picky
They after me! They want my down!
Hear me say “Aw Phooey!”
Hewey, Dewey, Louie
They just want my down, down, down, down, down
Down, down
Daisy’s hunted now, now, now, now, now
Now, now
Even though our fame is so renowned
Worked for Disney
Now Uncle Scrooge needs to hire some security
My saliva sprays (Sprays)
As I burst into yet another fit of rage
I’m hearing them whine
As they’re chasing down Ludwig Von Drake
He invents a force field
To keep those unrestful souls away
Sleep deprived inside their brains
So we need to scurry
To be plucked, I’m worried
I wish I was furry
You know that mammals don’t have down
Come on let’s hurry
So fast we look blurry
They’re after our down, down, down, down, down
Down, down
It sure makes me frown, frown, frown, frown, frown
Frown, frown
For comfort they will act like clowns
They’re making me daffy
While they move like zombies
Own crappy furniture
They’re so peeved cause they can’t sleep
For help called Darkwing
Even brought that Hockey Team
Fight folks with sleep apnea
Even insomniacs will squeeze
Our lives are in a whirl
But they can’t stop Donald Duck
Even though sleepers are stupid
They just really want to pluck
I’m flustered beyond all belief
Their prodigy is probably me
Though audibly, Language is a monstrosity
I’m not a turkey
Though I act quirky
They’re far too perky
When I go flaunt my feathers around
I’m no average birdy
But they’ll make me jerky
They’re after my down, down, down, down, down
(And it really makes me frown)
Down, down
Their beds are dirt mounds, mound, mound, mound, mounds
(They’re unsound, So unsound)
Mounds, mounds
Still I think it’s time that I left town
Cause these sleepers freak me out
And that’s why you’ll hear me shout!
Down, down
Because all the beds suck here in town
Town, town
Quack!!!
This really blows (Blows, blows)
I moved and made this town my home (Home, home)
Rotten pillows (Lows, lows)
Are cases stuffed with filthy clothes
They’re out of their minds
Don’t you freaks know about my fame?
So get your hands off of me
All of you damn dirty apes!!!
Shoulda stayed with Mickey
Now my life is tricky
These sleepers are picky
They after me! They want my down!
Hear me say “Aw Phooey!”
Hewey, Dewey, Louie
They just want my down, down, down, down, down
Down, down
Daisy’s hunted now, now, now, now, now
Now, now
Even though our fame is so renowned

Now Uncle Scrooge needs to hire some security
My saliva sprays (Sprays)
As I burst into yet another fit of rage

As they’re chasing down Ludwig Von Drake

This sounds like a job for Howard the Duck!
The Duck Stops here! I like the Darkwing Duck reference, used to love that show back in the day
(SOTM) First let me say that I loved how you flipped the title on its head! I never would have thought of this. Just the topic itself kept me laughing throughout the entire thing. Great job... as usual.
(SOTM) Gotta admit, this is not one of your better paced parodies. Funny as all hell, really creative premise that didn't get tired, and I'm always a sucker for parodies that take the original title and twist its meaning. But the pacing here could've used a bit of polishing, particularly in the the first two choruses (the last chorus, for some reason, didn't have the random extra syllables as the first two did). Really good job here despite that, 455
SOTM...Poor poor Donald....he's my favorite! This was a fun parody...excellent work!
Your use of 'down' to refer to a comforter was very funny. And I support the Darkwing and Scrooge references as well. Good work on an oddball topic.
Nice work, I loved the 'called in the hockey team' line, but the pacing was way too off for me in places. Good job!
