TWILIGHT RIOT
Here we go again! Boy, you must think I've flipped my lid. If I hate Twilight so much, you say, then how come I keep writing about it? I don't know. But as much as I can't stand the series, it's strangely fun to poke fun at it, especially in a musical sense. If you gotta point the finger at anyone, you may as well point it at Weird Al; he's the one who gives me these crazy ideas in the first place. Anyway, this goes to his song "Grapefruit Diet", a parody of "Zoot Suit Riot" by the Cherry Poppin' Daddies. And today marks the release of that new "Eclipse" movie, too. How do you like that?

I see it in every bookstore
Even on Burger King's front door
Posters, stickers, video games—
Man, it's completely insane!
No matter where I go,
Twilight's staring right back at me
Don't know what I can do
I'm going downright crazy
Twilight riot
(Riot!)
Vampires all over the place
Twilight riot
(Riot!)
Oh, get this malarkey out of my face
Twilight riot
(Riot!)
More than a little bit weird
Twilight riot
(Riot!)
Oh, I just wish it would all disappear
Blow, batty!
Well, Miss Bella is a total fake
She makes Britney Spears look like a saint
And as for this Edward Cullen dude,
He makes Dracula seem cheap and crude
Oh, all you girls, tell me
Why you're into this stuff?
What is it you see?
It's a bunch of foolish fluff
Twilight riot
(Riot!)
I can't take it anymore
Twilight riot
(Riot!)
It's time to haul this garbage out the door
I'm in a Twilight riot
I'm in a Twilight riot
I'm in a Twilight riot
Enough's enough
Oh, will you spare me?
I'm begging you, please,
Have mercy
All this merchandise, now
Just take it away
Bella and Edward,
Go away
Is there no one to save me
From this twisted Twilight craze?
Don't want to hear one more word
For the rest of my days
Twilight riot
(Riot!)
Go find another hobby
Twilight riot
(Riot!)
Just stick to painting, or pottery
Twilight riot
(Riot!)
The biggest bane of my existence
Twilight riot
(Riot!)
Believe me, pal, it ain't worth your two cents
I'm in a Twilight riot
I'm in a Twilight riot…
I'm in a Twilight riot!
