Alright, me and Fiddler parodied a Jon Bon Jovi song on ICQ a few nights ago. It parodies Jovi's, "Bang a Drum"
I went to see The Fiddler
To teach me how to Fiddle
He looked at me and smiled
Then the Fiddler turned away
He said if you want to fiddle something
You ain't gotta have a big band
Play it with your heart
Your soul and believe it
And I'd say amen
Play a fiddle for the fiddlers
Play a fiddle for their fiddles
Play a fiddle for Shorty
And those who're round
Play a fiddle, play it loudly
Or as soft as you need
Play a fiddle for yourself son
And a fiddle for me
I called upon Brett Lambertjust the
Other day, he said: Shorts I'm gonna
Die if I don't start to play again
I practice each day and night like clockwork
Just trying to think up a good beat
I could kick this bad world's ass
If I could just get on my feet
I'd play a fiddle for the dying
Play a fiddle for the truth
Play a fiddle for the innocence
Lost in our youth
Play a fiddle, play it loudly
Or as soft as you need
Play a fiddle for Brett Lambert
And a fiddle for E.T.
I don't know where all the side notes run
I don't know how far, I don't know how come
But I'm gonna die believin'
Each note that I take
Ain't worth the ground that
I walk on
If we don't play it our
Own way
No I don't claim to be The Fiddler
A writer or a saint
I'm just another man who's searching
For a better way
But my heart beats loud as thunder
For the things that I believe
Sometimes I wanna run for cover
Sometimes I want to scream
Play a fiddle for tomorrow
Play a fiddle for the past
Play a fiddle for the heros
Play a fiddle for E.T. to come back
Play a fiddle for the promise
Play a fiddle for the lies
Play a fiddle for the lovers
And the tears they've cried
Play a fiddle, play it loudly
Or as soft as you need
But as long as my heart keeps on bangin'
I got a reason to believe
