Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree" Based on the performance by
Tony Orlando and Dawn
"Stick a Yellow Ribbon to Your Trunk with Glee" Parody by Rod Worden
War can be so annoying..
I'm headin' home I'm makin' time
My tunes are crankin' loud, I'm feelin' fine
If I can dodge some traffic, make some calls, steer with my knee--
Park the car, stock the bar--
Party starts at three!
I'm so damn hap-py!
Just stuck a yellow ribbon to my trunk with glee
Says "Support Our Troops", magnet-art decree
If I don't spot a ribbon now where it should be
I'll think: "lefty nut"
They don't know what's what
-- Put no blame on me! --
Our troops are safe with yellow ribbons stuck to trunks, you see
[ giddy instrumental break..]
Unload the car, catch some tv
Where's the baseball score --what's this with I-raq-is?
Another violent bombing, you would think they'd know they're free
Soldiers and civilians gone, bodies and debris
More atrocities
Just stick a yellow ribbon to your trunk with glee
Say "Support Our Troops", magnet-art decree
With ribbons stuck to trunks we'll shop and we'll sight-see,
Forget about war,
Casualties galore,
Flaunt our pride-- whoopee!
Our troops are safe with yellow ribbons stuck to trunks, you see
[ tempo slows.. ]
-- Now my whole damned trunk is paint-balled --
Guess some jerks they don't agree
Our troops are safe with yellow ribbons stuck to trunks, you see
I've got my hose..
