While in a late night conversation with some friends I accidentally called the One more Day storyline from the Spider-man "One day more" storyline which got me thinking about Les Misreables and the Spider-man Turn off the Dark musical and so I came the insane idea for a parody song about Marvel's One more day plot to the melody of One day more from Les Miserables.
Disclaimer:
This is parody lyrics to the melody of Les Miserables One day more written by someone who went forty eight hours with nearly no sleep and quite possibly had a small nervous break down yesterday morning so yes, I think I cracked.
[Stan Lee]
One more Day!
Another edit, another retro-continuity.
This never-ending re-write to Consistency;
These men who took over my storyline
Will surely undo twenty years of Peter's timeline.
One more day!
[Peter Parker]
I was a husband until today.
Why did they demand MJ and I be parted?
[Stan Lee]
One more day...
[Peter Parker & Mary Jane]
Tomorrow you'll be written away
And yet with you, my character growth started.
[Black Cat]
One more day without a new title of my own...
[Peter Parker & Mary Jane]
Will our marriage ever be status quo again?
[Black Cat]
One day more with Marvel not caring.
[Peter Parker & Mary Jane]
I was supposed to be married to you.
[Black Cat]
What a threesome we could have known!
[Peter Parker & Mary Jane]
We can only pray Quesada will undo...
[Black Cat]
But he thought the nerds would never care!
[J. Jonah Jameson]
One more day - Spider-man's a worm!
[Peter Parker]
I thought the fans liked our growth...
[J. Jonah Jameson]
Twenty years of story undone!
[Peter Parker]
Will I again be fifteen with big hair?
[J. Jonah Jameson]
Yes, when the film reboot will form.
[Peter Parker]
Damn... Wait... What?!
Do I bargain with a demon? Why would I dare?!
[J. Jonah Jameson]
Will this at all effect my story?
[ALL]
The time is now, the retcon is here!
[Stan Lee]
One more day!
[Mephisto]
One more day to Fan revulsion!
We will drag this thing into the mud.
We'll be ready for these fan boys
As the hate mail will start to flood.
[Stan Lee]
One more day!
[J. Michael Straczynski and Joe Quesada]
Watch us run amok,
See the readership start to fall.
Never knew it might suck
To re-write he who can wall crawl.
Here's a little "dip"
There a little 'touch'
Most of them are basement loners
So they won't miss much!
[Fans]
[Fan 1:] We don't want a new beginning!
[Fan 2:] Were the writers of this thing high?
[Fan 3:] It was worse with the love life of The Thing...
[Fan 4:] Tell me there's a retcon's retcon in the spinning.
[Fan 5:] There's a new world to be undone.
[ALL]
Do you hear the people whining?
[Peter Parker]
My story was clear, I was relatable to you!
[Stan Lee]
One more day!
[Peter Parker & Mary Jane]
I had good character development until today...
[Black Cat]
One more day in the Friend Zone!
[Peter Parker & Mary Jane]
How can they undo something Stan Lee started?
[Mephisto (overlapping)]
We will join these Marvel heroes.
We will follow where they go.
We will rewrite their little secrets. (whispered: In Original Sin)
We will erase the things they know.
[Stan Lee]
One more day!
[Peter Parker & Mary Jane]
Tomorrow our marriage will be written away.
[Black Cat]
What a story the fans had known!
[Peter Parker & Mary Jane]
And yet with this a new continuity has started.
[Mephisto (overlapping)]
One more day to fan revulsion.
We will drag this thing into the mud.
We'll be ready for these fan boys!
[J. Michael Straczynski and Joe Quesada (overlapping)]
Watch us run amok,
See the readership start to fall.
Never knew it might suck
To re-write he who can wall crawl.
[Stan Lee]
Tomorrow I'll be far away,
Tomorrow this company goes to Dis-nay.
[ALL]
Tomorrow we'll discover
What The Mouse in Burbank has in store!
One can hope that
That Master Dis-nay
Will undo One More Day!
(Instead of introducing Thor Lady...)
