I actually appreciate the humor in the lyrics.

That said, it drives me nuts when people don't consider syllable counts in parody songs.

"This'll be the day that I die" can't be sung to the same tune as "soon I'll be a rich guy."

Probably should have gone with "soon I'll be a very rich guy." But the rest of the parody is written the same way unfortunately, so it'd all need to be fixed.

I'm fun at parties.

Should've gone with "soon I'm gonna be a rich guy" like Weird Al did.
