Some humor for a rainy Thanksgiving day...

I parodied American Pie last year and now, I've made updates to it. Please sing along and enjoy:

Intro:
A long long time ago
I can still remember how
The Trojans used to make me smile

And I knew when we had Pete and Norm
The offense scored and the defense swarmed
And maybe we'd be winning for a while

But the ncaa made me shiver
With every verdict they delivered
Bad news on the doorstep
Another hiring misstep

I can't remember if I cried
When I read Helton wasnt fired
Something touched me deep inside
The day the program died

Chorus:
So my, my this incompetent guy
Can we hire, Urban Meyer and just tell him goodbye.
And that good ole boy with his press conference lies
Singin' "Coach Bohn is the love of my life"
"Coach Bohn is the love of my life"

Verse:
Did you write the playbook up
And do you have faith in Bohn above
If your contract tells you so?

Do you believe in running the ball?
Can Slovis save your mortal soul?
And can you teach them how to be physical?

Well, I know that you're afraid of Bohn
'Cause I saw you give him a "Fight on!"
You both will look like fools
If he doesn't give you the boot, ooohhh

I was a loyal Trojans fan for years
With a season tickets and my Trojan gear
But I knew that I was outta here
The day the program died

I started singin'

Chorus:
My, my this incompetent guy
Can we hire, Urban Meyer and just tell him goodbye.
And that good ole boy with his press conference lies
Singin' "Coach Bohn is the love of my life"
"Coach Bohn is the love of my life"

Now, for ten years we've been 2nd tier
With embarrassing losses every year
But, that's not how it used to be

When the jester coached under Norm and Pete
As as favor to his dad, Monte
Till he got his own gig at Tennessee

Oh and while coach Norm was looking down
The jester stole his OC crown
The coaches meeting was adjourned
No, Norm did not return

And while Haden went and hired Sark
And ripped out Coach O's fiery heart
And we sang Fight On in the dark
The day the program died

We were singin'

Chorus:
My, my this incompetent guy
Can we hire, Urban Meyer and just tell him goodbye.
And that good ole boy with his press conference lies
Singin' "Coach Bohn is the love of my life"
"Coach Bohn is the love of my life"

Helton meltin, in a summer swelterin
The fans were gone and recruits were bailing
Eight place now and falling fast

A yellow flag fell on the grass
The players tried for a forward pass
While their teammates, on the sidelines, smiled and laughed

Now the half-time air was doom and gloom
While TMB played a marching tune
We all got up to leave
Oh, but we never got back the lead

'Cause the players tried to kick it deep
The kick returner scored with ease
Do you recall what was revealed
The day the program died?

We started singin'
My, my this incompetent guy
Can we hire, Urban Meyer and just tell him goodbye.
And that good ole boy with his press conference lies
Singin' "Coach Bohn is the love of my life"
"Coach Bohn is the love of my life"

Oh, and there we were all in one place
Another recruiting class gone to waste
With no time left to start again

So come on Bohn be nimble, Bohn be quick
Bring in Meyer or even PJ Fleck
'Cause Meyer is this program's only mend

Oh and as I watched him on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage
No team coached by Hell(ton)
Could break Nick Saban's spell

And as the team was blown out into the night
With clueless looks from Mr. Fight
I saw Saban laughing with delight
The day the program died

He was singin'
My, my this incompetent guy
Can we hire, Urban Meyer and just tell him goodbye.
And that good ole boy with his press conference lies
Singin' "Coach Bohn is the love of my life"
"Coach Bohn is the love of my life"

We beat those girly baby blues
And I was hoping for some happy news
But we just frowned and turned away

I went down to the university bookstore
Where crowds had gathered years before
But the man there said the fans just wouldn't pay

And in the stands the students screamed
The alumni cried, and the fans all dreamed
But not a word was spoken
The message boards were broken

And the coaches I admire most
Pete, Coach O, and McKay's ghost
They caught the last train from the coast
The day the program died

And they were singing
My, my this incompetent guy
Can we hire, Urban Meyer and just tell him goodbye.
And that good ole boy with his press conference lies
Singin' "Coach Bohn is the love of my life"
"Coach Bohn is the love of my life"
They were singing
My, my this incompetent guy
Can we hire, Urban Meyer and just tell him goodbye.
And that good ole boy with his press conference lies
Singin' "Coach Bohn is the love of my life"
"Coach Bohn is the love of my life"

 

Good stuff. I am saving your piece because it reminds me of how that song goes, a truly wonderful memory.

 

Excellent job! Going to sing the entire song at the Thanksgiving table this afternoon. Fight On and Happy Thanksgiving!

 

Another excellent parody! Thanks for making my Thanksgiving!

 

Nice parody. Love it

 

Very creative.. and it did make me laugh

 

LOL

 

In the Amazon Prime Series, Patriot, the hero, a CIA Agent is captured by the Iranians and locked in a prison and tortured. He isn’t beaten or water boarded or starved or made to go without sleep. Instead, they try to break him playing loud music. It isn’t Slayer or Norwegian Death Metal or the worst rap possible.

instead, they force him to listen to American Pie on 11, on a loop.

so that’s a nuh, bruh

Can never listen to that song the same way again.

By the way, Patriot is a dark comedy

 

Very clever.


Here’s my previous favorite:

 

[email protected]#ken Hilarious man.

I lost it @ the "can you teach them how to be physicicaaal" part.

Don McLean would be proud of these lyrics.

 

Good work ... the jester stole his OC crown hahaha
