Zorbing: A Parody
N.B. For those unfamiliar with Zorbing by the Oxford based band Stornoway, then I’d suggest you watch the video before singing along with my alternative lyrics. To see original lyrics, click here. Enjoy.
Ten pence shining on the ground
The air is cooler
I need the money, just started uni
Walking backwards, pick coin up
You’re at your window,
And I trip-up, should’ve faced the right way
Lying in your loft-extension,
I can feel the tension,
So comment on the room’s colour scheme
Send my body out to work,
But leave my car keys,
Go back to get them, how embarrassing
Ring the doorbell, then you pinch
Me on the shoulder,
Not quite sure why and I’ll be off now
Lying in your loft-extension,
I can feel the tension,
So ask about your Nan’s cataracts
Not very stimulating, as a conversation,
But lost remote, so telly ain’t an option
I’ve been singing you this song,
and told a porky,
Been zorbing, spent all my cash on it.
I took all my mates and we,
We zorbed together, unsure if zorb is a verb but please forgive me
Lying in your loft-extension,
I can feel the tension,
So muse upon the news, current affairs,
You interject with something, irrelevant and now
Lost my trail of thought, I’ll just start over
Lying in your loft-extension,
I can feel the tension,
Goodbye and thanks for the tenners you lent me.
So terrifying, oh I’m nearly dying,
Lost my nerve, did not expect such a hiding.
I may record this over the summer - watch this space!

Oh Tom, you never cease to amaze me! Sort of reminded me of our 'chinese in the microwave' times! Oh so very funny, and please do record it! This is actually hillarious! I love it!

Cheers Mel- glad you like it.
Wrote this too quickly though, could do with some fine tuning I think.
