Before we get into the song, I have a few notes: First of all, I KNOW THAT RETROVILLE IS NOT A STATE. I just put it this way because it was (I thought) funny and it fit better. The "guy named Bryan" is an agent similar to Corky, but for different TV stuff. The "smartest girl number 4" line is for "Fourth smartest Girl in the World," which, in my fictional world, is a pretty high honor. So they took her up to Washington state to show America this really smart girl (and don't ask why her parents didn't go. The people that gave her the "Brainy Award" went with her, so she wasn't alone, okay?). I realize I might be going off on the syllabic pattern here, but this is the best way I could get it, so I ask only that y'all not be picky and just enjoy and review it (and guess whose POV this is!).
Washington(Come Back To Retroville): Parody of Ohio(Come Back To Texas)
She got a "Brainy Award"
for "smartest girl number 4"
Then she went up to Cheyenne
with some guy named Bryan--
she was right out the door!
And then we saw her on TV
Right there, I thought I could see
a tear in her green eyes,
and I realized--
could she be missing me?
So when you're done doing whatever,
and when you're through punching whoever,
you know that down in my lab,
I'll be right here waiting for you!
Come back to Retroville!
It's just not the same since you went away.
Before you ditch your hometown,
and forget all about the Retro state,
there's a seat for you at the Candy Bar,
and on "Bat Outta Heck" today.
Besides, the sugary drinks suck north of here, anyway!
She had beauty and hate
She used it on me as bait
But then her love for science
landed her a press conference
up in Washington State.
I've got to get Cindy home!
'Cause she's left me all alone
Gotta get Libby's cell phone,
tell her "Cindy, please come home
back in Retroville gates!"
And when you're done doing whatever
And when you're through punching whoever,
Come back quick, 'cause Sheen's driving me
crazy with Ultra Lord!
Come back to Retroville!
It's just not the same since you went away.
I bet they missed your exit
and drove right through the Retro state
There's a seat for you at the Candy Bar
and on "Bat Outta Heck" today.
Besides, the sugary drinks suck north of here, anyway!
Lindbergh School wants you back
Jimmy Neutron wants you back
Graystar wants you back
and your parents want you back!
Miss Fowl wants you back
And Libby wants you back
With Principal Willoughby's permission,
gonna take out a petition,
and the whole town's gonna sign!
(country tempo)
Come back to Retroville!
It's just not the same since you went away.
Before you ditch your hometown
and forget all about the Retro state,
There's a seat for you at the Candy Bar
And on "Bat Outta Heck" today...
(back to Rock!)
Come Back to Retroville!
It's just not the same since you went away.
Before you ditch your hometown
and forget all about the Retro state,
There's a seat for you at the Candy Bar
and on "Bat Outta Heck" today.
Besides, the sugary drinks suck north of here, anyway!
Besides, the sugary drinks suck north of here, anyway!
Besides, the sugary drinks suck north of here, anyway!
Yeah!
Author's Review:
I came up with this song Saturday night, and I got so excited about it, I couldn't wait to post it! That song by Bowling For Soup is one of their funnest (yes, funnest) songs I've ever heard! I love it, and I hope you guys like the parody! If y'all want a better explanation than above, here's what I can muster: (cracks knuckles)
Cindy's scientific intellect was noticed by some people who are from some organization that gives prestigious awards for really smart people, and they gave her one for "World's Smartest Girl No. 4" in History. Then they take her up to Washington for a press conference so they can show America the next child in history or something like that. Her agent's name was Bryan. She enjoys the attention, but misses her humble hometown as much as her hometown misses her. The song is from (duh!) Jimmy's POV, and exemplifies how he's dealing with her absence (sort of), and he wants her to come home, as does everyone else.
What do y'all think? Good? Bad? Cute? Funny? Stupid? What?
