    Default Parodies (Spoilers for DT 1-7, Stand)

    I thought that we could share parodies that we have made! Just to warn you, a lot of mine contain spoilers, and are almost all dark tower related, so be careful when you're reading! Ms. Mod is allowing me to share, and I am overexcited! Ms. Mod suggested I start with 5 but there's not room for 5, so here's 2 of my favorites that I wrote (it was hard to choose), and more to come later!:

    I would do anything for Los, But I Won't do that to tune of And I Would Do Anything For Love But I Won't Do That
    And I would do anything for Los, I'd run right into hell and back
    I would do anything for Los, I'll never lie to you or break my pact
    But I'll never forget the way you make me feel right now, oh no, no way
    And I would do anything for Los, but I won't do that, I won't do that
    Anything for Los, oh I would do anything for Los
    I would do anything for Los, but I won't do that, oh I won't do that

    Some days I can't be easy, and some days you can't be hard
    Some days we don't come at all, and these are the days that never end
    Some nights you're breathing fire, and some nights I'm carved in ice
    Some nights we're changing the world into what we want it be again

    Maybe I'm crazy, but it's crazy and it's true
    I know you can save me, no one else can save me now but you

    As long as the beams are breaking, as long as the Earth is shaking
    As long our dreams are coming true, you better believe it

    That I would do anything for Los, and I'll be there til the final act
    I would do anything for Los, and I'll take a vow and seal a pact

    But I'll never forgive myself if we don't break a beam tonight
    And I would do anything for Los, oh I would do anything for Los
    Oh I would do anything for Los, but I won't do that, no I won't do that

    I would do anything for Los, anything you've been dreaming of
    But I just won't do that
    (repeats 3x)

    (Solo)

    Some days I pray for silence, some days I pray for your soul
    Some days I just pray to the God of Sex and Drums and Discordia
    Some nights I lose all feeling, and some nights I lose control
    Some nights I just lose it all when I watch you dance and the thunder rolls

    Maybe I'm lonely and just a lonely llama fox Taheen
    There's just one and only, the one and only promise I can really mean

    As long as the wheels of Anti-Ka are turning, as long as the fire inside me's burning
    As long as your plans are coming true, you better believe it

    That I would do anything for Los, and you know it's true and that's a fact
    I would do anything for Los, and there'll never be no turning back

    But I'll never break better than I break with you, so long, so long
    And I would do anything for Los, oh I would do anything for Los
    I would do anything for Los, but I won't do that, no no no I won't do that

    I would do anything for Los, anything you've been dreaming of
    But I just won't do that
    (repeats 7x)

    But I'll never stop dreaming of you every night of my life, no way

    And I would do anything for Los, oh I would do anything for Los
    I would do anything for Los, but I won't do that, no I won't do that

    [Girl:] Will you raise me up, will you help me from being down?
    Will you get me right out of this Godforsaken town?
    Will you make it all a little less cold?

    [Boy:] I can do that! I can do that!

    [Girl:] Will you hold me sacred? Will you hold me tight?
    Can you colorize my life, I'm so sick of red and white?
    Can you make me feel a little less old?

    [Boy:] I can do that! Oh oh, now I can do that!

    [Girl:] Will you make me some magic, with your own two hands?
    Can you build a tower before me with these grains of sand?
    Can you give me something I can call home?

    [Boy:] I can do that! Oh oh now, I can do that!

    [Girl:] Will you cater to every fantasy I got?
    Will ya hose me down with holy water, if I get too hot?
    Will you take me places I've never known?

    [Boy:] I can do that! Oh oh now, I can do that!

    [Girl:] After a while you'll forget everything
    It was a brief interlude and a midsummer night's fling
    And you'll see that it's time for the world to move on

    [Boy:] I won't do that! No I won't do that!

    [Girl:] I know the territories, I've been around
    It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down
    And sooner or later, you'll be screwing around

    [Boy:] I won't do that! No I won't do that!

    Anything for Los, oh I would do anything for Los
    I would do anything for Los, but I won't do that, no I won't do that


    Pretty Mordred to tune of Pretty Woman
    Pretty Mordred, crawling down the street
    Pretty Mordred, the kind who likes to eat
    Pretty Mordred

    'Cause I need you, I'll treat you right
    Come spiderbaby, be mine tonight

    Pretty Mordred, don't walk on by
    Pretty Mordred, make me cry
    Pretty Mordred, don't walk away, hey...okay
    If that's the way it must be, okay
    I guess I'll go to the tower, it's late
    There'll be tomorrow night, but wait
    What do I see
    Is he crawling back to me
    Yeah, he's crawling back to me
    Oh, oh, Pretty Mordred

    Here's two more (I think I'll go in intervals of twos for a while):

    I STARTED A JOKE PARODY
    I started a quest, which started the whole world smiling,
    But I didn't see that the joke was on me, oh no.

    I started to cry, which started the whole world laughing,
    Oh, if I’d only seen that the joke was on me.

    I looked at the skies, finding the beams with both my eyes,
    And I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I'd said.

    Til I finally died, which started the whole world living,
    Oh, if I’d only seen that the joke was on me.

    I looked at the skies, finding the beams with both my eyes,
    And I fell into this world, hurting my head from losing my girl.

    til I finally died, which started the whole world living,
    Oh, if I’d only seen that the joke was one me.


    Suddenly Roland to tune of Suddenly Seymoure
    [Roland]
    Lift up your head
    Eat a tooterfish sandwich
    Here, take some astin
    Put your wheelchair away
    Forget not your father's face, we'll walk till it's mornin'
    I know things'll get bad, but you'll be okay

    Suddenly Roland is standin' beside you
    You don't need no jewelery, just us to defend
    Suddenly Roland is here to provide you
    A little heavy-handing
    Roland's your friend

    [Susannah]
    Nobody ever treats me unkindly
    Daddy was a dentist
    Mama was sure
    I’ve met this new man and I'll follow him blindly
    He's missing a few fingers
    But that makes me more sure

    Suddenly Roland is standin' beside me
    He gives the right orders
    He don't condescend
    Suddenly Roland is here to provide me
    A little heavy-handing
    Roland's my friend

    [Roland]
    Tell me this journey won't last forever
    Tell me the good times won't be swept away

    [Susannah]
    Please understand that it's still strange and fright'nin'
    For a ka-tet like ours is it's so hard to say

    [Roland]
    Suddenly Roland,
    He purified me
    Suddenly Roland
    He showed me I can
    Learn how to be more
    The girl that's inside me
    with a little heavy-handing
    with a little heavy-handing
    with a little heavy-handing
    Roland's the man!

    [Roland] [Susannah] [Rest of Ka-tet]
    Suddenly Roland,
    He purified you
    Suddenly Roland
    Yes, you can
    Learn how to be more
    The girl that's inside you
    with a little heavy-handing
    with a little heavy-handing
    with a little heavy-handing
    Roland's our man

    Red King Arising to tune of Bad Moon Arising
    I see the Red King arising.
    I see trouble on the way.
    I see Beamquakes and lightnin.
    I see bad times for you today.

    Don’t go around tonight,
    Well, he's bound to take your life,
    there's a Red King on the rise.

    I hear the dark winds ablowing.
    I know beam's end is coming soon.
    I fear feelings over flowing.
    I hear the voice of rage and ruin.

    don't mess around tonight,
    Well, he's bound to change your life,
    there's a Red King on the rise.
    All right!

    Hope you got your s##t together.
    Hope you are quite prepared to die.
    Looks like were in for nasty weather.
    A gunslinger's going to die tonight.

    don't mess around tonight,
    Well, he's bound to change your life,
    there's a Red King on the rise.
    don't go around tonight,
    Well, he's bound to change your life,
    there's a Red King on the rise.

    DOESN’T REMIND ME OF ANYTHING PARODY
    I walk the beam's path till my ka-tet’s lost
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    Visit graveyards for my worn out hoss
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like studying faces in battles I've fought
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like going foward with my talking dog
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

    [Chorus]
    The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
    The boy I held sacred that I dropped
    I won't lie no more you can bet
    I don't want to learn what I'll love and forget

    I like Eddie's jokes and riddle talk
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like tavern music, Susannah's drawl
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like heading to the clearing in the sun
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like loading my guns and speaking in tongues
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

    [Chorus]
    The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
    The boy I held sacred that I dropped
    I won't lie no more you can bet
    I don't want to lose what I need

    Lose me forget me
    I love the way we were
    Slow and smoothly
    Like never before
    Calm and brooding
    I won't stir up the past
    So descretely
    I won't look back

    [Chorus]
    The things that I've loved the things that I've lost
    The things I've held sacred at all cost
    I won't lie no more you can bet
    I don't want to leave what I'll need

    I like losing my voice and breaking more hearts
    Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
    I like fighting in the sand what's mine is yours
    If it doesn't remind me of anything

    Since we are doing parodies, I thought we could have fun with this setup.

    I'm sure most are familiar with the Bud Light Presents (real men of genius, real american heroes, etc) commercials on the airwaves. Here's my version:

    Bud Light Presents: Real Men of Gilead

    Bud Light presents: Real Men of Gilead
    (Real men of Gilead!)
    Today we salute you Mr. Relentless Gunslinging Dark Tower Pursuer
    (Mr. Relentless Gunslinging Dark Tower Pursuer!)
    Wielding the Sandalwood Gripped Guns of Your Father, you are a force to be reckoned with
    (Hail of bullets fury!)
    Who wants to negotiate when you can put Hard Calibers right between someone’s eyes?
    (Watch those brains fly! Ooh Ooh!)
    You keep accumulating new companions from different When’s and Where’s
    (Don’t forget the Tooterfish!)
    Your friends jokes may make you laugh, until the lobstrosities barrel around the corner…
    (Where’s my fingers?)
    Take my extra gun and shoot, For Your Father’s Sake!
    (But with Your Heart, not with The Gun!)
    So crack open an Ice Cold Bud Light, Mr. Relentless Gunslinging Dark Tower Pursuer
    Because even in our darkest times of need, we can always count on your to let us die for your D*mn Tower.

    (I love real men of gilead.. i will never watch another bud commercial without Roland in my head!!!!!!!!!!!!)


    (Now, tis the season!)
    All I want for Christmas is you parody
    I don't want a lot from Gilead
    There is just one thing I need
    I don’t care who you tie and burn
    To the Charyu tree
    I just want you for my own
    More than you could ever know
    Make my wish come true
    All I want from Gilead is you

    I don't want a lot from Gilead
    There is just one thing I need
    I don’t care who you tie and burn
    To the Charyu tree

    I don't need to hang my pistol
    There in my holster
    Gunnas won’t make me happy
    As a toy on Christmas day

    I just want you for my own
    More than you could ever know
    Make my wish come true
    All I want from Gilead is you

    I won't ask for much from Gilead
    I won't even wish for snow
    And I, I just wanna keep on waiting
    In this bonfire’s glow

    I won't make a list and send it
    Ask for astin so I won’t be sick
    I won't even stay awake
    To hear those magic triggers click

    Cause I just want you here tonight
    Holding onto me so tight
    What more can I do
    Oh baby, all I want from Gilead is you

    All the stars are shining
    So brightly everywhere
    And the sound of Roland’s
    Laughter fills the air

    And everyone is singing
    I hear those blaine’s wheels spinning
    Walter won't you bring me
    The one I really need
    Won't you please bring my baby to me, quickly

    I don't want a lot from Gilead
    This is all I'm asking for
    I just wanna see my baby
    Standing right outside the door

    I just want you for my own
    More than you could ever know
    Make my wish come true
    Baby, all I want from Gilead is you

    All I want from Gilead is you, baby

    Leaving on a jet plane parody

    So many times I’ve messed around

    Evry place I go, Ill think of you
    Evry song I sing, Ill sing for you
    When I come back, I’ll have my own drug ring

    Tell me that you’ll wait on me
    And to this world I never will let go
    cause I’m leavin on a jet plane

    Oh man, I hate to go

    Now the time has for Roland to meet you
    One more time
    Let me see you
    Then close my eyes
    We’ll be on our way
    Dream about the days to come
    When I won’t have my drugs to cope
    For how long a time, I wont have to say

    So see me and smile for me
    Tell me that you’ll wait on me
    And to this world I never will let go

    Bob Dylan - Just Like A Woman PARODY
    Nobody feels any pain
    Tonight as I stand inside the rain
    Ev'rybody knows
    That Eddie's got new clothes
    But lately I see his taunting and his jokes
    Have fallen from his mouth curled
    He takes just like a tower, yes he does
    He makes love and thinks of the tower, yes he does
    And he aches to be at the tower
    But he breaks just like a little girl.

    Crimson King, I'll see you at the end
    Yes, I believe I'll go see him again
    Nobody has to guess
    That Eddie can't be blessed
    Till he finally sees that he's like all the rest
    With his fog, his devil grass, his mouth curled
    He takes just like a tower, yes he does
    He makes love and thinks of the tower, yes he does
    And he aches to be at the tower
    But he breaks just like a little girl.

    It's was the beach I saw him first
    And I was dying there of thirst
    So I came in here
    And your long-time curse hurts
    But what's worse
    Is this pain in here
    I can't stay in here
    Ain't it clear that.

    I just can't fit
    Yes, I believe it's time for our quest
    When we meet again
    Introduced as friends
    Please don't let on that you knew me when
    I was hungry chasing after the tower
    Ah he fakes just like a tower, yes he does
    He makes love and thinks of the tower, yes he does
    And he aches to be at the tower
    But he breaks just like a little girl.

    STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN PARODY
    There's a lady whose wheelchair glitters likes gold
    And she's following a stairway to the tower
    And when she gets there she knows if the doors are closed
    She'll just have to pound them down

    Oy
    And she are climbing the stairway to the tower

    There's a sign in the sky but she wants to be sure
    And she knows words like ka-tet have two meanings
    In a tree by the brook there's a metal bear losing it
    She thinks Rolands thoughts may be misgiven

    Oy
    And she are climbing the stairway to the tower

    There's a feeling she gets when she looks to the west
    And her spirit is crying for leaving
    In her thoughts she has seen the beam's path in the sky and the trees
    And she hears the voices of her ka-tet who stand looking

    Oy
    And she are climbing the stairway to the tower

    And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune
    Then our Roland will lead us to reason
    And a new day will dawn and we'll sing Susannah's song
    And the forest will echo with laughter

    And it makes me wonder

    If there's a bristle in your billybumbler
    Don't be alarmed now
    We're just a short way from the Crimson King.

    Yes there are two paths you can go by
    but in the long run
    There's still time to change the road you're on

    Your head is humming and it won't go in case until you do know
    That Roland's calling you to join him
    Dear lady can't you hear the wind blow and did you know
    Your tower lies on the whispering wind

    And as we wind on down the road
    The lady of shadows bears her soul
    There walks a lady we all know
    Who shines white legs and wants to show
    How everything still owns is gold
    And if you listen very hard
    The tune will come to you at last
    When all are one and one is all
    To be a rock and not to roll
    Oy
    And she are climbing the stairway to the tower

    There's a lady whose wheelchair glitters likes gold
    And she's following a stairway to the tower
    And when she gets there she knows if the doors are closed
    She'll just have to pound them down

    And she's climbing the stairway to the tower
