This [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=On4v2zQ7K5k) is really funny in a way that is hard to describe. It’s not a song parody exactly. Just watch.

I lasted :48 seconds. Great song, sorta clever concept, boring and difficult to snatch the puns before they disappeared. Once I understood what the gag was, it quickly became the worst no-click internet game I’ve played all year.

I like it better. Much more mush-mouth, so easier to pretend they’re actually saying what you’re reading. Only problem was when they say “entertain us,” the only part of the lyrics I ever understood just from listening.

Same. I usually like clever song parodies\*, but this one kinda fell flat.

\*Yeah, I know the OP said it wasn’t one, but… what is it?
