Happy Birthday, Charles Henrickson!!!
Yes, today Charles hits the big Six-Oh! So I thought what better tribute to my DUmmie FUnnies "co-conspirator" than to present a medley of his best parody song hits. I will present my favorite, "Self-Recanted Evening," and you can do the same by doing an online search of the DUmmie FUnnies or other sites. I mention the latter because another great Henrickson hit was "E.L.C.A" based on "Y.M.C.A" which caused a bit of a controversy among his fellow Lutherans for being perhaps too irreverent. However, as I say, a person with no sense of humor confuses the irrelevant with the irreverent.
So I lead off with what I hope will be a looooooong list of Charles' top hits with "Self-Recanted Evening" which was an AMAZING feat since I requested of Charles to write up a parody song of the ever changing opinions of WILLIAM RIVERS PITT to the tune of "Some Enchanted Evening" from "South Pacific" and he came up with the complete parody within only a couple of hours.
So here goes:
SELF-RECANTED EVENING
Tune: "Some Enchanted Evening"
Self-recanted evening,
When you see the flip-flops,
You may see where Pitt stops
Across the DUmmieland.
And somehow you know,
You know even then,
That sometime you'll see him
Recant once again.
Self-aggrandized weaving,
Bloviating windbag,
Going where the wind blows,
Not knowing where to stand.
He'll write to the left--
That's left to go right--
Will's so busy dancing,
He can't sleep at night.
Who can explain Pitt?
Who can tell you why?
Will gives two versions,
Neither one can fly.
Some fantastic FReeping!
Someone may be laughing,
You may hear the laughing
Among the DUFU fans.
And night after night,
When we go to bed,
That sound is our laughter--
Will Pitt's in our thread!
Once we have DUFUed
Will Pitt's swing and miss,
Then he'll discover
He can't recant this!]
I envy those with hair. I used to have that . . .
And since I am so inspired: ANOTHER!
Golden H
Golden H (chuck chuck chuck)
Golden H (chuck chuck chuck)
Don’t let me hear you say parodies are going nowhere(angel!)
You’re so much better than
The songs you build (angel!)
Lyrics are calling and the thoughts are young
Charles is gonna get the job DONE
(run for the FUnnies, Run for the FUnnies, Run for the Funnies in them golden years whop whop whop)
Charles hit 60
6 decades
Can the Old Man Hack it
In his Golden YEARS? (Gold Gold Gold)
God willing he’ll be with us for a thousand years!
He’ll be banging then out now in his YEARS!
(Run for the FUnnies, Run for the FUnnies, Run for the Funnies in them golden years whop whop whop)
**whistle out...*
bump
happy birthday
What do I do, though, if the other machine in the house has gone into "Hibernate" mode?
That’s the question...
I feel like a burned-out sexagenarian machine.
Maybe a trip for both of you to Hawaii. Might rekindle some feelings.
Happy Birthday to you!!
Happy Birthday, Charles!
SIXTY CANDLES
Tune: "Sixteen Candles"
Happy birthday
Happy birthday, Charlie
Oh, you're sixty now . . .
Sixty candles
Top the birthday cake
So hot they make
Smoke alarms awake
Blow out the candles
Make your face turn blue
For I'm recalling
CPR I knew
You're really sixty
But you still think you're fine
You're the sexiest, hunkiest guy
In your own mind
Sixty candles
Set the cake aglow
Better leave the building
It's about to blow!
You're really sixty
But you still think you're fine
Oh, you're the sexiest, hunkiest guy
In your own mind
Sixty candles
Set the cake aglow
Better leave the building
It's about to blow!
It's about to blow!
Happy B-Day! Love his wit & intellect!
