Fallen on hard rhymes © PETER ANDERSSON A MUSIC PARODY BASED ON: "FALLEN ON HARD TIMES" BY: JETHRO TULL BONUS QUOTE: "I love being a writer, what I can't stand is the paperwork." PETER DE VRIES		A while ago I came across some 20 songs by this band. At first I only liked one of them but because of that one I forgot to delete the rest. Recently I stumbled upon the whole bunch again, this time taking a liking to a few more, with this one as a new favourite. And of course it didn’t hurt that it had some metaparody potential. Fallen on hard rhymes, and I feel really slow There’s filks and funnies that I’m still to pen Writing on bad lines, for better puns as I go Tear up, tear up the final draft again Oh, they rhyme sinister, it’s all such a mess Go right ahead and muck my rotten ruth Sure, I must circumvent, I’ve been put to a test Bum green, four stanzas left stress, where’s a sleuth? Booking some puntime, oh, but I slack I am told Cos I think that filks and funnies comes round the bend Given me a hard to transcend Writing on the same line again Failing on hard rhymes, and here’s where I subside Where I recognize direrhymeitis and the stench Yearning for good lines, and this goes in the bin Soon it will be raised, I, foolish mensch Lovely muse help me, it’s been seeping too long Oh, I can’t make do when you're outta town I must stop this parody, shove it where it belongs Don’t ask me for it arty, won’t come around Trying for ”orange”, oh, but you know what they say Yeah, they say forever more that’ll be a ”when?” Giving me a hard time, my friends Writing down the same line again Fallen on hard rhymes I’ve fallen on hard rhymes Fallen on hard rhymes Cannot step between the mines I’ve fallen on hard rhymes © Peter Andersson 2005
