After seeing performances by the great Luke Ski and Carrie Dahlby, I decided I had to write this duet for them. Not only did they agree to sing it, but Luke constructed a whole '70s variety show around it. Chris Mezzolesta (Power Salad) and Tom Smith contributed cameos, and studio genius Bob Emmet (Project Sisyphus) did the music, production, and, well, all the real work. You can download the entire sketch and/or just the song from The FuMP. And while you're at it, request it on the Dr. Demento Show!
A MIDDLE EAST COUNTRY, A MIDDLE EARTH MOUNTAIN TROLL
Parody of Donny & Marie Osmond's "A Little Bit Country, A Little Bit Rock 'n' Roll"
Lyrics by M. Spaff Sumsion
Performed by Project Sisyphus f/ the great Luke Ski & Carrie Dahlby
I'm a Middle East country
I'm a Middle Earth mountain troll
I've got sunshine, deserts, and burqas
I’m horrific but my wits are kind of dull
My name is Something-stan
I swallow hobbits whole
I'm a Middle East country
I'm a Middle Earth mountain troll
I’m a little explosive
I put dwarves in my Quaker Oats
I’m a little ultra-religious
I’m a little bit gruff with billy goats
I’m disconcertingly real
I might be fiction-ole
I’m a Middle East country
I’m a Middle Earth mountain troll
I offer camels, sand, and Muslims
And crude oil in rich supply
If I stay out till the sun comes up
Then I turn to stone and die
I'm moving slowly
To secular control
I bash those freaking wood-elves with a club like Whack-a-Mole
Like me, you’re poor as dirt
Or rolling in the dough
I’m a Middle East country
I’m a Middle Earth mountain troll
I may have mostly flat topography
But my Crescent is Fer-tile
I got a job at Hot Dwarf on a Stick
Just to dress in style
My people love me
By reflex or by force
I barbecued my in-laws so my wife filed for divorce
I’m arid and I’m extra dry
Not me! I’ve got B.O.
I’m a Middle East country
I’m a M-
“DAWN TAKE YOU ALL! AND BE STONE TO YOU!”
Who was that?
My ex.
Oh.
I’m a Middle East country!
And I’m a Middle Earth mountain troll!
