Lyrics

Monday morning’s really easy
almost anyone could do sports radio
But as the week wears on it's harder
and you’re forced to ask yourself, “What's your Thursday show?"
You thought you’d hit your stride
but really that was just the pride
before the fall
And now you’re getting sad & desperate
You’ve sunk so low that you started taking calls

If you wanna do it
Go and try it
Apply for a job
If you'd like to get paid
minimum wage
then this is your shot
How would you fill time
in June & July?
Talk real slow and...

Babble on, babble on, babble on, babble on

A parody of David Gray, “Babylon"

    okay, let me say that in a way that doesn't sound like an insult....jerry's vocals are superior and he's singing in a parodic style meant to convey content and not just mood and effect, and therefore the degree of difficulty is higher. he shouldn't sound "more natural" than...i'm sucking at this, but i like yours a lot better than his. goodnight.

    So brilliant. Love the original song too. In this case, I can sing both versions and be correct. Very cool.

    Very cool. Great idea, excellently done. This is one of those songs that I always forget how good it is until I hear it again. That is a stupid sounding sentence...but my brain it not work so well in morning so that best I got to describe.

    Great idea for a parody song. The whole "stride/pride" and "fall/calls" is really nice.
