I was thinking that my recent posts had been a bit too depressing. Maybe a bit too much about that pesky virus. So I thought let’s have a bit of fun with some Terrible Poetry from the wonderful Chelsea Owens’s weekly challenge. I’ve just checked what this weeks theme is – Oops Sorry.
- The Topic is a parody of a popular song on the theme of COVID-19. Yep, I’m asking for a Coronavirus song parody.
- For Length: No, I’m not expecting every verse and chorus, especially if you do “Bohemian Rhapsody.” A verse or two and a chorus ought to be great.
- If the song rhymes, you must rhyme.
- This issue is a bit close to home for many of us, so keep the terribleness funny. Please do not be insensitive or over-violent or such.
- Rating? PG or G. My kids will want to hear it.
You have till 8:00 a.m. MDT next Friday (April 17) to submit a poem to Chelsea. *!!ALSO!!* Chelsea’s husband has agreed to sing a recording of the winner’s song.
***********
So here goes to the theme tune to The Banana Splits……

Even here in India the police have been making parody songs to ask people to stay at home, the traffic policemen are wearing helmets that are shaped like Corona and dancing on the streets begging people to stay at home.

Thank you! I loved the Banana Splits! Great lyrics. When your song mentioned shits creak I couldn’t help chuckle because I’ve been getting through a lot of the stuff lately by watching episodes of a Canadian comedy called Schitts Creek. Very funny.
