Inspired by [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=4671301#post4671301) thread, I decided to start this little game.  
Rework Barbara Streisand lyrics! For instance, here is _Dawn Of The Dead_ Streisand:

> [@Barbara Streisand-George Romero](#):
>
> Zombies are very special people  
> They’re the luckiest people in the world  
> With one person, one very special person  
> A feeling deep in your undead soul  
> Says you WERE half now you’re whole  
> No more hunger and thirst for brains  
> But first be a person who eats people
> 
> People, people who eat people  
> Are the luckiest people in the world.

Big Gay Streisand:

> [@The Super Barbara Streisand](#):
>
> So long sad times  
> Go along bad times  
> We are rid of you at last, silly!  
> Howdy gay times  
> Cloudy gray, with some puce; very slimming colors times  
> You are now a thing of the past  
> Super days are here again  
> The skies above are queer again  
> So let’s sing a song of cheer again  
> Super days are here again

Michael Jackson Streisand:

> [@](#):
>
> Some way, Somewhere  
> We’ll find a new way of lying  
> We’ll find a way of “forgetting”  
> Somewhere…  
> There’s a place for us to touch  
> Somewhere a place for us to sleep  
> Peace and quiet and dark bedrooms  
> Wait for us  
> Somewhere  
> There’s a little boy for us too  
> Someday there’ll be time for us to snuggle  
> Time together and time to spare  
> Time to learn, time to care

Hmmm…I would think a musical style called “Big Gay Barbra” would be redundant…

The Breast Augmentation Barbra Streisand

Mammaries  
Like big jugs of finest wine.  
Heaving, jiggling, mammoth mammaries,  
Made of silicone.
