The Lyrics

No, I never got sixteen ones in one song before, and I sure as hell hope it's not going to be this one!!!
Some. People say my mind was a thick as that mud
That must have been true, this song was a dud
Song was a dud! God D*mn! It Blows!
My mind was weak!
Hope your stomach's strong

I got Sixteen Ones
Am I upset?
Gave me cold shoulder
And twenty death threats
Got beat up, eye's got raw meat
That kick was low
My balls met sole, and now I'm so sore

I was scorn, no warning, cause my puns didn't rhyme
And now I just grovel, didn't think that was crime
I loaded, Sixteen Ones, That wasn't my goal
My jaw dropped, said, "Digress A-Holes!"

That blows, Sixteen Ones, Thought it's no sweat
"Another lame poster" Let's make his seat wet
Grim Reaper; Might die bawling it's like death row
I sold my soul to these Amiright whores!!!

I forlorned next morning, For that quisling pain
Sightings of rubble were calling my name
I was making my brain ache, said "You ain't even tryin"
Another high-toned beating made my eyes go blind

Oh, No! Sixteen Ones, Another I met!
Pacing was perfect! I played that cassette!
Damn cheaters! Make score falling with that one blow
My fives were stole in Song Parody War

If you see me writing better get offline!
A lot of times didn't, a lot of times cried
My lyrics retired, I post them, I squeal
If my grammar ain't get ya, then mi speling wyll

Download, Sixteen Ones, What is this shite?!
Another kicked boulders the deepest one yet
Please Chucky, If you read these, dude, just say "Noooooo"
I know
These blo-o-ow
With the Amiright score.

How could anybody give you so many low votes on a parody? That's just not right. Here's another 5-5-5 to help you feel better.

Three more fives, just in case, Matthias. Good work here. :-)

555, I hate how the 111 voters very rarely ever post a comment(that's a 1 in 1000000 shot of happening). Very good parody.
Cat - May 02, 2006 - Report this comment
Very clever concept, Matthias! No 1s here. =)

This "Sixteen," it's beautiful, here's your fives! Definite SOTM material. Maybe SOTY material.

lol MP - and fifteen from me too, matthias - I'm starting to think that the ones guys are mostly newbies or visitors, because noone else cares - 555

Wow!!! Thanks you guys, expecially Mike... That's one hell of a compliment, I was only nominated for one Song Of The Month song, and that was by Stu, unfourtantly everyone thought I was insulting John Denver instead of Brokeback Mt. but whatever, and I never was nominated for Song of the Year.... Thanks!

Take another five
Red Ant - May 03, 2006 - Report this comment
16 ones? More like 15 5s. "If my grammar ain't get ya, then mi speling wyll" was the best line IMO. One of the best voting parodies I've seen. I know of one parody here that has 150+ one votes.

(SOTM) Congratulations, you just got Sixteen Fives, thanks to me! Coincidence? Hmmm... Anyway, you picked a clever song to mess with. You really took your time to create a smash hit parody, and it shows. I had no idea what this song was gonna be about, but I guessed it had something to do with ones and would be a parody of "Sixteen Tons." I clicked on the link and I had a great time reading it. THis one is a worthy contender, but nothing's set in stone yet. 555

(SOTM) I feel your pain. 555

(SOTM) See above...and on reread, really liked the line "My balls met sole." And I have been there, man. Not quite to that extent, but I've been there.
Red Ant - June 09, 2006 - Report this comment
(SOTM) See above, and nice job on all the rhyming.

(SOTM) Still funny, Matthias. :-)

(SOTM) nice. but i thought people mistakenly vote 1's when they're trying to vote "excellent" but don't quite understand the voting system. at least, that's what i've been telling myself..

SOTM - I guess a clever and introspective comment is called for here, but I can't come up with one(s). :-)

(SOTM) I saw your scores for this one. For some reason, there are twenty straight fives. Gee, I wonder why that is?! =P

(SOTM) good one Matthias - see above - and I forgot about your little treasure "then mi speling wyll" at the end - LOL

SOTM - I really need to look this one up, but I'll take everyone's word for it that this is paced well.

SOTM...I'd like to add my applause to what's already been shared for the spelling bit...genius! This was a lot of fun, Matthias!

Phil Alexander - June 28, 2006 - Report this comment
Well, I have one song that has more than sixty ones (in each category... that's >180 in total), so I can relate to this... I like the way the 1-merchant has stayed away from it, too :-)
