Entry #70
 

This ended up being the only song parody I was ever able to play for the actual band who wrote the original. And holy shit their reaction was priceless. I'll get to that in a second.
 
Great song and once again, had enough instrumental that I could piece together backing tracks pretty easy. The obvious parody was "Can't get enough head" or something along those lines, but even I was getting a bit bored of the sexual stuff. I have fucked up sinuses and don't sleep very well and mornings for me are impossible because I'm exhausted. Meh, my cross - whaddya gonna do.
 
So "Outta my bed" worked good and it was my nod to Lennon's "I'm only sleeping". Very proud of the production, my voice, everything. I secretly want to lead a rock band, but I've never found any other peeps as dedicated as me. C'est La Vie.
 
So the guys are in there to do some liners for the station and I just go for it. Said, "You wanna hear something crazy?". The lead singer looked like I had destroyed his WORLD. He put his hands to his head, with his eyes all wild eyed, absolutely stunned someone else's voice was coming out of the speakers. I'll never forget it as long as I live. He was smiling, but it was clear he was quite confused. Hahahaha. I'm laughing as I type this. I immediately explain to him it's just a parody I did on my radio show, and he calmed down a bit and listened some more. He asked if we were selling it and I said of course not - just did it for laughs. That seemed to make him feel better. When we got to the middle instrumental part I potted it down so they could do their liners and the first thing out of his mouth in a heavy british accent:
 
"You should've said you couldn't get enough head."
 
OUTTA MY BED
PARODY OF TIN STAR'S "OUTTA MY HEAD"
 
Each time I wake up in the morning,
My mind, my soul, my body just wants to keep on dreamin',
Open up my eyes, ruin my wet dream,
Why lord can't I just keep on sleepin',
'Cause I'm not gettin along, I'm not gettin the answer,
I'm not gettin along, no, no, no,
I'm not gettin along, I'm not gettin the answer,
I, I can't get outta my bed
 
I'll stay here all day, people go away,
Like Lennon said I'm Only Sleepin', I'm only sleepin',
But my alarm clock rings, J-Dog wants food,
Why can't I go, my body's weepin',
 
'Cause I'm not gettin along, I'm not gettin the answer,
I'm not gettin along, no, no, no,
I'm not gettin along, I'm not gettin the answer,
I, I can't get outta my bed
NO I, NO I, NO I, I can't get outta my bed,
NO I, NO I, NO I, I can't get outta my bed,
I would give you fifty dollars,
if you would just let me sleep,
Oh I would never scream and holler,
let me dream, don't make me weep.
My bed 'n' bed, I love my bed,
I can't get out of my bed,
LORD WHY, LORD WHY, LORD WHY, I can't get out of my bed,
LORD WHY, LORD WHY, LORD WHY, I can't get out of my bed,
 
I wanna sleep...I wanna sleep
can't cant' cant' cant get out of my bed
my legs won't move, my arms wont move,
my head wont move, I can't get outta my bed
I wanna sleep, sleep all day long, I don't wanna do anything today,
don't make me come in today, no, no, I can't get outta my bed.
can't get outta my bed
I can't get outta my bed...
