Are you feeling a bit puckish? Have you been thinking about shooting six holes in your freezer (or 15 if you're using a 9mm)? Maybe you'd just like a little chuckle to get you through the rest of your day. Whatever the reason, check out some of the parodies of Jimmy Buffett's music. If you like what you see and you're feeling in a creative mood, write up a parody of your own and email it to me. If I put it on this page I'll be sure and give you all the credit and the glory!

I'd like to thank the kind people who put out the Great Lyrics Compilation. I made many reference trips to their excellent web site while putting these parodies together. Also be sure to check out the Parody page which is located in the Lost Shaker Of Salt section of Parrot Central. Bubba, The Salty Dog maintains Parrot Central and he has other Buffett parodies that I don't.

Now on to the parodies. Humor is just a click away. :-)
The parodies are arranged with the original song listed first and then the parody(s) bullet listed below it.

A Pirate Looks At Forty

• A CUBBIE LOOKS AT BASEBALL by Nivram Snedrag (Ghosted by Toby Gibson)
  Supplied by Scot Leibacher from his collection off the Buffett mailing list.
• ONE MORE TIME by Jesser WARNING: If you're easily offended you might not want to read this one.

  Banana Republics

• PARROT HEAD REPUBLIC by Nivram Snedrag (Ghosted by Toby Gibson)
  Supplied by Scot Leibacher from his collection off the Buffett mailing list.

  Boat Drinks

• GOLF SWINGS I wrote this after reading a post from the Buffett mailing list. Thankx very much for the inspiration, Bubba - The Salty Dog.
• PISS DRUNK A Bubba, The Salty Dog creation that he posted to the mailing list. WARNING: The parody contains some strong language.
• 60 MINUTES Written in celebration of Buffett's recent interview on 60 Minutes and the ensuing discussion on the mailing list.
• EGGNOG Written by the Tampa Bay Lizard Boy from the Buffett mailing list. The Christmas season seems to be upon us.

  Coconut Telegraph

• RACAfest TELEGRAPH by Greg Dye
  Yet another RACAfest parody. This event sure seems to spawn a whole bunch of stories ... Fictional Facts and Factual Fictions.

  Cuban Crime of Passion

• RACA FIT OF PASSION A steamy little parody written for RACAfest 97. This is for those of us who wish we could make it (although you can be sure that my I-board is safely locked away).
• RACA FIT OF PASSION - the reply In reply to the above parody, an unamed source sent me their comments about what actually went on during the "Fit of Passion". It helps to explain some (but not all) of what happened that hot summer night at RACA '96 in Cincinnati.

  Desperation Samba (Halloween In Tijuana)

• DIRECTIONS TO (RACAfest IN CINCINNATI) A submission for the semi-"Official Song of RACAfest 97". Not sure how the RACA festers feel about this one at this point.

  Fruitcakes

• TICKETCAKES by Tom Alexander
  Ticket woes are once more upon us!

  God's Own Drunk

• GOD'S OWN LISTSERV by Stu Gittleman
  Dug this one up out of the Buffett mailing list archives.
  (I edited the format so that the parody follows the format that I remember from the song. Editing was done on format only.)

  Grapefruit-Juicy Fruit

• SANTA IS COMING SOON
  It's almost Christmas ... I haven't written a parody in awhile ... what can I say

  Great Filling Station Holdup

• THE GREAT ALPINE VALLEY FIASCO by Nancy Fish
  Supplied by Scot Leibacher from his collection off the Buffett mailing list.

  Growing Wiser But Not Up

• GROWING WISER BUT NOT MAD by David McEwan
  More fun off the Listserve.

  Gypsies In The Palace

• PUPPIES IN THE PALACE by Bill McGreevy
  Supplied by Scot Leibacher from his collection off the Buffett mailing list.

  Jolly Mon Sing

• SANTA MON SING by Toby Gibson
  Well ... it's almost Thanksgiving ... some stores already have Christmas stuff up ... why not get a jump on things. You know what they say: "When in Rome ..."

  Margaritaville

• JEDI POWERS by Drew Cohen
  More alternative lyrics.
• MERGEREETEFILLE by Bubba the Salty Dog
  Supplied by Scot Leibacher from his collection off the Buffett mailing list.
• OVER-FORTY-VILLE by Randy Estes
• TARGREETAVILLE by Jacqueline
• WEBVILLE by Bill McGreevy
  Supplied by Scot Leibacher from his collection off the Buffett mailing list.

  Off To See The Lizard

• OFF TO USE THE WHIZZER I wrote this to be the semi-"Official Song of RACAfest96". I have it on good authority that this parody was printed off and displayed during the festivities in Cincinnati last year. Not sure what the heck RACA is? Go dock at the Jimmy Buffett Listserv List Home Page.

  One Particular Harbour

• ONE LISTSERVE PARTY I've done it the first two so I might as well continue the "tradition". My submission for the "official" '98 RACAfest song.

  The Ballad of Skip Wiley

• THE BALLAD OF THE GOP by Drew Cohen
  Enjoy!

  They Don't Dance Like Carmen No More

• THEY DON'T PLAY LIKE MARVIN NO MORE by D. Kirk Lockhart
  Supplied by Scot Leibacher from his collection off the Buffett mailing list.

  This Hotel Room

• THIS CAN OF SPAM by Toby Gibson
  Reposted to the Buffet list recently by Bubba The Salty Dog

  Vampires, Mummies And The Holy Ghost

• MEGADOLLARVILLE, TAXES AND JIMMY WITH DREADLOCKS What would happen if JB were to embrace Rastafari? My personal "vision" of that event. (Warning: Does contain reference to DFB's but only because it rhymes)

  Volcano

• DANTE'S PEAK My review of this 1997 disaster movie. Make plans to see it now!

  Who's The Blonde Stranger

• WHO'S THE BLONDE STRANGER There's been a lot of discussion lately on the Buffett mailing list about how JB has sold out and why does he play the same setlist year after year. I don't consider myself to be a GOP (Grumpy Old Parrothead), but I tried to put myself in their shoes when I wrote this.

  Why Don't We Get Drunk

• I FEEL LIKE (I'VE JUST BEEN SCREWED) by Nivram Snedrag (Ghosted by Toby Gibson)
  Supplied by Scot Leibacher from his collection off the Buffett mailing list.
  (I edited the format on the live bootleg portion. The rest of the parody is displayed as the author formatted it. Editing was done on format only.)
• WHY I DON'T POST TO THE LIST Written to kind of defend my reasons for lurking so much on the Buffett mailing list. All in good fun of course. There's a lot of information to be learned from the List members. You just have to take the list with a grain of (margarita) salt.
• SONGS YOU KNOW BY HEART Think you're up to the challenge? Try singing this parody in your mind without straying from the tune of the original song. It's a lot harder than you think. :-)
• I GET TO CUT ON THE PRESIDENT Written in honor of our Grand Poobah "Big Bad" Bill Clinton. Actually, someone on the list mentioned that Bill listened to Buffett and Lyle Lovett while he was under the knife. They asked what kind of Buffett music was appropriate for an operation. While searching throught my mental archives for appropriate songs, this parody jumped out and grabbed my by the kneecap, threatening to hurt me it I didn't write everything down! The rest, as they say, is history.
• THAT CHRISTMAS CAROL (from a different point of view) Imagine Jimmy on his Christmas Island as Santa. He's delivering all the toys and comes across some really good eggnog which he and the reindeer inbibe. WARNING: The parody contains some strong language.

  Oh Come All Ye Faithful (the Christmas hymn)

• OH COME ALL YE FAITHFUL (revised) Couldn't resist. There is a "Deadhead" version of this on a tape of irreverently funny Christmas songs that my friend made for me and the above begged to be written <G>

  ---

  Juke Box Hero by Foreigner

• CO-RAL REEFER OK, OK. It's not a Buffett song. Still, I think it works. Just listen to the original first and then substitute the parody. It makes me smile <VBG>

There you have it. Any other parodies will be considered (and most likely accepted) for inclusion on this page. As you may have noticed, I'm much indebted to Scot. Thankx very much, Scot, and thankx too for all the other comments on this endeavor that I've received.
