Barroom Hitz (Parody of "Ballroom Blitz")

Lyrics

Are you ready, Keith? Uh huh.
 Stanley? Yeah! Ted? OK.
 Alright, fellas, let's go!
 Oh, kids benefit from Mozart
 Even if they think the dude's a dweeb, uh huh
 With "Twinkle Twinkle's" words changed
 That guy could help you learn your ABC's
 Oh, I see a man with the flag sing the National Anthem
 In his eyes an incredible song
 But the bar on the corner's where the poet and lawyer
 Named Francis Scott Key got that music from
 Oh, yeah, it was enlightening – everybody's rewriting
 And the music they're spoofing – and they all starting new things!
 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 And the plan of attack is give 'em Bible facts
 With reworded tunes from barroom hits
 And the Salvation Army and dinosaurs like Barney
 Use converted tunes that's all our group did
 Borrowed bits of barroom hits, borrowed bits of barroom hits
 Oh, reaching out to unchurched
 Teaching those who occupy the pews
 If some may call us posers
 I really feel there's nothing left to prove
 And the monks in the black robes sang contrafactums
 Their praises ascend to the sky
 If the Lord's in your corner, then everything's purer
 He can cure you in the twinkling of an eye
 Oh, yeah, if you think Wesley
 Would panic at Presley
 Then on next Christmas Eve, please
 Take a long look at "Greensleeves"
 And the plan of attack is give 'em Bible facts
 With reworded tunes from barroom hits
 And Weird Al has accordions we use a concordance
 When converting tunes with borrowed bits of barroom hits
 Oh, yeah, it was enlightening – everybody's rewriting
 And the music they're spoofing – and they all starting new things!
 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 And the plan of attack is give 'em Bible facts
 With reworded tunes from barroom hits
 And the girl Fannie Crosby employed that quite a lot
 She used converted tunes that's all our group did
 Borrowed bits of barroom hits
 Let's fix the barroom hits, let's fix the barroom hits
 Let's fix the barroom hits, let's fix the barroom hits
 Yeah, fix the barroom hits!
