The Lyrics
This is a tribute to youtube's fourth favorite attention whore, Andrew Meyer. Lonelygirl, Lisa Nova, and Chris Crocker are all tied for first place.
Andrew got tased
Oooh...
You got tased
You'll remember
Well you ignored your common sense
And got dissed
Now the whole world laughs at your fit
And how you squealed it
You got subdued
And moved
"Arrest that monkey"
It's true
That you
Were touched by something
We can all assume
Was due
You got tased
You'll remember
When they were rushing up to you
You conspired
To act like a hysterical baby
And how you cowered
We know it's true
That you
Andrew
Attention junkie
Confused
No clue
Amongst that something
Standing in full view
Is screwed
You... got... tased...
Andrew got tased and filled us with laughter
To see his fate
Got tased and quite felt a tinge of fright (right)
Was displayed across his face
But what he knew
This is how it was meant to be
Screams and whines, publicity
It's true
This is how it was meant to be
Screams and whines, and know the press came for you... for you
Oooh...
You got tased
You'll remember
Well you ignored your common sense
And got dissed
Now the whole world laughs at your fit
And how you squealed it
You got subdued
And moved
"Arrest that monkey"
It's true
That you
Were touched by something
We can all assume
Was due
You got tased
You'll remember
When they were rushing up to you
You conspired
To act like a hysterical baby
And how you cowered
We know it's true
That you
Andrew
Attention junkie
Confused
No clue
Amongst that something
Standing in full view
Is screwed
You... got... tased...
Andrew got tased and filled us with laughter
To see his fate
Got tased and quite felt a tinge of fright (right)
Was displayed across his face
But what he knew
This is how it was meant to be
Screams and whines, publicity
It's true
This is how it was meant to be
Screams and whines, and know the press came for you... for you

That's a great 10,000 Maniacs OS, one of my favorites. And that's a great topical parody, too -- I can easily imagine Natalie Merchant doing The Pony over that clown's squirming body.
i laughed like a hysterical baby
Excellent and timely satire
Yep, those really whiny screams are what sticks in my mind. Funny work on an underused OS. 555(00) Volts. PS: If you get the chance, check the recordings section here...

Thanks, Johnny, Alvin, AFW, and Red Ant. BTW, Red, I love your Tased and Confused song... The soundclips of Andrew were excellent... lol
DKTOS - at first thought it was "Those Were The Days" by Mary Hopkins... actually, if you know that one, it's not bad:
Once upon a time, there was a taser
How we loved to zap a dude or two
Remember how we laughed away the hours
By shocking some dumb creep till he turned blue...
Anyway, another Five-worthy addition to the genre of electric rock.

Thanks, Tommy... LOL... Great idea for a song too... you should do a full-length version of that.... :)
I'm with Tommy! Nice one
Also DKTOS, but I like the acerbic tone.
Shockingly funny.
Done! It should be posted Wednesday, 26 Sept. Thanks for the push!
Thanks TJC, John, and 2Eagle. :) Tommy, I'll be looking forward to yours... It looks like it will be good...
