    For the above Blimey Cow video, I left the following comment. (Someone enjoyed it enough to request that I post it here.)

    To the Tune of “Breakfast” by the Newsboys:

    Hold the like, put back the retweet;
    They are pointless now to count.
    We gather here for the eulogy
    Of our late friend’s Twitter account.

    Friends and followers say the motto
    That he taught us to repeat:
    “You will lose it in the real world
    If Twitter’s your reality.”

    Back when the haters said his words were wrong,
    Every moment he would own it and then move along.
    Ah, none of us knew his final post would come so soon,
    But before he hit his limit, he composed this tune:

    When you see sick burns,
    And how the world has turned
    To making one another bitter…
    When your Father finds you,
    May these words remind you
    That your hope is not in Twitter.

    Friends and followers, don’t yet hit send,
    Though you want to share your thoughts;
    That day his final message was penned,
    His heart was right with God.

    Those here without the Lord, how do you cope?
    For this morning, we don’t mourn like those who have no hope.
    Now get set, internet, and sing sweet like a bird.
    With hashtags ready, say already he’s remembered.

    When you see sick burns,
    And how the world has turned
    To making one another bitter…
    When your Father finds you,
    May these words remind you
    That your hope is not in Twitter.

    I made a parody of TØP’s latest song “Level of Concern” about the VeggieTales reboot TBN has releasing through its new streaming service “Yippee”. The parody is below. There are a number of VeggieTales references in it.

    FYI: The second verse takes some imagery from Lyle the Kindly Viking. To make it work, I also pulled from the fact that there once was a quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings named “Christian Ponder”. Probably a bit of a reach, but it’s what I used. Also some of the punctuation may seem off, but it’s to try to help fit the text to the pacing of the actual song lyrics.

    Level of Concern

    (Veggie, Tales)
    (Veggie, Tales)

    Wonder on the brain, world has gone insane
    Things are beginning to worsen (mmm)
    I can’t help but think I haven’t felt this way
    Since I saw the Netflix version

    Wondering:
    Will someone, decide to intervene?
    Or is this the way it ends?

    ‘Cause I told you, my level of concern
    And you told me ev’rything we learned
    From our friends Larry, and Bob of VeggieTales
    About how God made us special, loves us very much

    Ponder on the brain, efforts went in vain,
    Kindly throwing up a prayer now
    I don’t really know if they would cope
    But I won’t give up hope;
    A reboot seems a good idea now

    Wondering:
    Will we get, one in this quarantine?
    Or is this the way it ends?

    ‘Cause I told you, my level of concern
    And you told me ev’rything we learned
    From our friends Larry, and Bob of VeggieTales
    About how God made us special, loves us very much

    (yeah) God made us special, loves us very much
    (yeah) God made us special, loves us very much
    Bring down my, level of concern
    Remind me that God made us special, loves us very much (yeah)

    (ooooooo oh ohhhhhh)
    ‘Cause I told you, my level of concern
    And you told me ev’rything we learned
    From our friends Larry, and Bob of VeggieTales
    About how God made us special, loves us very much

    Remind me that God made us special, loves us very much
    Remind me that God made us special, loves us very much
    Remind me that God made us special, loves us very much
    Remind me that God made us special, loves us very much

    Please tell me now
    Remind me now

    ‘Cause I told you, my level of concern
    And you told me ev’rything we learned
    From our friends Larry, and Bob of VeggieTales
    About how God made us special, loves us very much

    (yeah) God made us special, loves us very much
    (yeah) God made us special, loves us very much
    You could bring down my, level of concern
    Remind me that God made us special, loves us very much (yeah)

    In a world, where Larry has no hairbrush
    And it’s all rather hush-hush
    It’s nice that you address
    (My level of concern)
    How God’s way is the best
    (Remind me that God made us special, loves us very much)
    I need that

    This is a parody referring to the frustration I’ve had with musical songs at times, since the range you have to have in order to sing a lot of them properly (without fundamentally changing parts of the melody) is not something I possess. T’m trying to be more thankful for the voice I’ve been gifted with, but this is a funny and lighthearted way to express my feelings about it

    Range isn’t enough (Never Enough from The Greatest Showman Parody)

    I’m trying to hit that note
    Attempted every day
    I’ll have to let it go
    It was my dream to just sing
    High school musical
    Without my voice squealing
    Tried it down
    To a different key
    But this song just ain’t made for me!

    All the highs in the song were just fine
    But the lows were meant for a bassline
    My range isn’t enough
    Range isn’t enough
    Musical songs can’t happen bye bye
    Romance won’t ever happen cuz my
    Range isn’t enough
    Range isn’t enough

    For me
    Isn’t, isn’t
    Isn’t, isn’t
    Isn’t, for me
    For me
    Isn’t enough
    Isn’t enough
    Isn’t enough
    For me
    For me
    For me

    This one is not really going to make sense to anyone because it’s about a specific D&D campaign and characters (one of whom is a human cleric and the other a mouse person who is unfortunately…undead). But it’s the only parody I’ve written recently, so here it is.

    Man or Mousefolk (parody of Man or Muppet from The Muppets)

    Oxalo:
    As we plan to jailbreak Aaron
    I wonder how we came to Mirren-
    Dell and ended up so darin’
    To overthrow
    I don’t know

    Am I a man or am I a mousefolk
    If I’m a mousefolk I’m a very manly mousefolk
    Am I a mousefolk or am I a man
    If I’m a man that makes me a mousefolk of a man

    Petros:
    I look down at the stones
    Former friend with undead bones
    I wish I was back home
    But Vinny’s kingdom is torn

    Am I a man or am I a mousefolk
    If I’m a mousefolk I’m a very manly mousefolk
    Am I a mousefolk or am I a man
    If I’m a man that makes me a mousefolk of a man

    Both:
    Here I go again
    I’m always trying to do what’s right
    I won’t go down without a fight
    Now I understand who I am

    Petros:
    I’m a man

    Oxalo:
    I’m a mousefolk

    Petros:
    I’m a mousefolk of a man

    Oxalo:
    I’m a very manly mousefolk

    Petros:
    A mousefolk of a man

    Both:
    That’s what I am

    Realized I never posted my Avatar-themed Hamilton parody, so here it is: Guns and Ships but not

    Sokka: How do a ragtag bro and sis, Avatar in need of a shower
    Somehow defeat the Fire Lord’s growing power?
    How do they find an earthbending teacher faster
    Building up Aang’s strength so he can be a master?
    Yo, turns out they find a secret weapon
    The Blind Bandit we know and love, who’s unafraid to step in
    She’s constantly confusing, confounding conflicted Boulder
    EVERYONE GIVE IT UP FOR THE BOXING RING’S FAVORITE FIGHTING BENDER

    Ensemble: TOPH BEIFONG

    Toph: I’M WHACKING THESE PUNKS WITH MY ROCKS MAKING GARMENTS DARKER WITH DIRT STAINS

    E: TOPH BEIFONG

    Toph: AND I’M NEVER GONNA STOP UNTIL I CRUMPLE UP AND PUT MY FOOT IN THE GRAVE, I’M

    E: TOPH BEIFONG

    Toph: WATCH MY ENRAGIN ECHOLOCATION I’M RAGING THEY’RE OUT

    E: TOPH BEIFONG

    Toph: I TURN AROUND FOR MY BELT

    E: TOPH BEIFONG

    Toph: Feel a breeze, let out a yelp

    E & Toph: I slip
    And so the balance shifts

    Katara: Sifu Toph is now his teacher, to train him in his gifts

    Toph: We’ll end this war at Sozin’s Comet
    Cut them off at Ba Sing Se, but
    For this to succeed, there is someone else we need-

    Katara: I know

    E: Twinkletoes!

    Toph: Well he may not be the best earthbender but he’s the Avatar, I mean

    E: Twinkletoes!

    Toph: You must have been doing something right if you all made it this far, I mean

    E: Twinkletoes!

    Toph: No one else has the training
    To make sure the Jerk Lord goes down flaming

    E: Twinkletoes!

    Toph: You wanna help kick his butt back? (Twinkletoes)

    Katara: I need my iceberg boy back

    Toph: Ah! Uh, get your iceberg boy back
    E1: Get your iceberg boy back
    E2: Twinkletoes!

    Toph: You know you gotta get your iceberg boy back
    E1: Your iceberg boy back!
    E2: Twinkletoes!

    Toph: I mean you gotta put some sense into his head, but
    E2: Ta- Ta- Twinkletoes!
    Toph: The sooner the better to get your iceberg boy back!
    E2: Twinkletoes! Ta- Ta-

    Katara: Aang, you know we’re here for you
    We’re behind you all the way
    If you do this right now, together we can save the world
    Oh, Aang, you know we’re here for you
    Whatever Ozai tries to do
    And I know you don’t want to fight
    But we need you to restore the light
    The world will never be the same
    Avatar Aang
