This is an open debate for a parody challenge. There will be a contest as to who can make a better parody of a song. I will give my opponent the privilege of picking the song. First round will be acceptance and decision of which song will be used. If the song does not follow the rules, I will begin the next round with my own parody.

RULES:
-The song picked must be widely known
-The song picked must consist of at LEAST a verse and a chorus
-The parody must consist of at LEAST a verse and the chorus
-The parody must be somewhat PG (No sexual content or bad words)

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular teens file in
There's a rich man sitting next to me
Really hungry for good ol" "Burger bin"

I say, "Son, can you buy me a burger now"
I am really hungry but broke
And it"s sad and its sweet
And I wish I could eat,
"When I had a job to make dough!"

Without a paid job, you're a hobo, man
Sitting on the park bench tonight
Well I was in the mood for some Mickey Dee"s
I" ll just eat for now, actually I won"t

I had to work all day Saturday.
My boss really can be an @ss.
I wanted to see the Ohio State game
and see that fan slammed in the grass.

So I watched ESPN for the highlights
but then my cable went on the blink
Had nothing to do but to sit and to stew
and by 9 I had started to drink

So I blame it all on the cable guy
by midnight I"m completely torched
The day started out with some football in mind
It ended passed out on the porch

For round 2, would you like to pick a new song?

I already have a parody of a song. Am I allowed to use that? It's a video.

You had me until you said, "No sexual content or bad words."

Are you going to actually sing the song, or are you just going to post lyrics?
