Song Parody, to Eleanor Rigby by the Beatles, about Catcher in the Rye
---
Ah, look at all the phony people
Ah, look at all the phony people
I'm Holden Caulfield, I left Pencey Prep 'cause the teachers disliked my poor grades
They're all the same
Went to the city, didn't want to go home; I decided to hire a whore
She thought me a bore
All the phony people
They're extremely annoying
All the phony people
They act like they're all kings
There's this old poem: If a body catch a body coming through the rye
They need someone like I
I got the words wrong, but that's okay because nobody else really cares
Nobody dares
All the phony people
They're all dopey and dumb
All the phony people
They think they're number one
Ah, look at all the phony people
Ah, look at all the phony people
Mr. Antolini turned out to be a perv', so I went home to visit my sis'
She said I was missed
We visited the zoo; she rode the carousel as I sat there, watched her and cried
She's so very alive
All the phony people
That just might include me
All the phony people
When did I go crazy?
Well done!
Holden would've be proud of you (just never have admitted it :)
