*DISCLAIMER! Since some people can't seem to get it: This is a joke. I am not stalking Mr. Clement. I am a fan, but that is all. I wrote this entire song AFTER I went to see them perform, and I actually only waited about 10 minutes after the show before they left and I went on my way. I didn't hang around for hours after they had gone. I was disappointed, but in no way mad at either of them. I assumed the ridiculousness of the situation/song would make it clear that it is NOT REAL. Thank you.*

This started as a love song for Jemaine Clement of Flight of the Conchords, but turned into a song about how I don't like him or his band anymore because they didn't do a meet-n-greet after the show I went to.

EDIT: I recently had a dream about Jemaine that pretty much made up for everything, so we're cool now. Also, I recorded the song and it can be found on my MySpace (http://www.myspace.com/paisleymacleod )...which I almost forgot I had. Who uses MySpace anymore? Struggling musicians, that's who.

Lyrics:

You're the one I adore
From Flight of the Conchords
You sure know how to entertain
I love your comedic timing
And your mad skill at rhyming
You're like a god, but more profane
You reign as King over my heart
It showers when you sing the low parts
You are master of your domain
I also like when you sing high
No matter what, you blow my mind
Just like a hurricane

Jemaine, Jemaine
You rock, like rough terrain
Jemaine, Jemaine
You've got my heart in chains
Jemaine, Jemaine
And I'll let you retain
The reins, Jemaine

Your songs make me swoon
Your voice sends me to the moon
Every time you hum a tune I want you to be mine
All the ladies of the world
You'd better step aside, girls
Now I'm here, it's business time
I see you girls checking out his junk
I see you girls checking out the front of his trunks
I see you girls checking out his sugalumps
They drive us girls insane
But that's not all I care about
I also dig what you wear about
I like it when your hair flips out

Jemaine, Jemaine
You're sweet as sugar cane
Jemaine, Jemaine
It's coursing through my veins
Jemaine, Jemaine
The fact is you remain
Arcane, Jemaine

A kiss from your great lips
Would be the greatest gift
Well, that, and I also like money
If I asked for a kiss
Would you say "yiss"?
Because your accent's kind of funny
I know it's not Australian
It's from New Zealand
As I've heard you explain
They're like "Where's the car?"
And you're like "Where's the car?"
It's in the feelin'

Jemaine, Jemaine
We could get a private plane
Jemaine, Jemaine
And fly over to Spain
Jemaine, Jemaine
We could sit and sip champagne
In Spain, Jemaine

Jemaine, Jemaine
I hope you like Quiche Lorraine
Jemaine, Jemaine
Wrapped some for you cellophane
Jemaine, Jemaine
Your tastes are hard to ascertain
Just sayin', Jemaine

I saw your show in Toronto
I was so excited to go
And I was going to show you this song
I waited out back
After the show that I was at
I was standing there for so long
You just got on your bus and drove away
But you met fans the next day
That's just inhumane
What did we ever do to you?
Why couldn't you have met us too?
I don't like you anymore

Jemaine, Jemaine
My faith in you is slain
Jemaine, Jemaine
It turned out you were playin'
Jemaine, Jemaine
Guess you made me train
In vain, Jemaine

Jemaine, Jemaine
This is the final refrain
Jemaine, Jemaine
It's dripping with disdain
Jemaine, Jemaine
Coeur brisee, je me plains
Jemaine, Jemaine

Jemaine, Jemaine
Jemaine, Jemaine
Get me Novocain
You ripped my heart in twain
Jemaine, Jemaine

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you
Jemaine

  • oh man, they talked to people the second time? I was there but didn't get to talk to them :(

  • This is what I hear, that they came out the second night but not the first. Sorry you didn't get to meet them either. They'd better come back, then!

  • I hope you don't continue to hate the Flight of the Conchords. I'm sure there was something that had them not go out back that night, because when I met them they were incredibly humble and genuine people. I hope you get another chance to meet them in the future because it's obvious you're more than just a fan. Fantastic lyrics by the way. Very VERY inventive. Again, I hope one day you love them again and don't just think of them as "Mutha' Uckas"

  • Haha, it's all good now. They have made it up to me in ways... (in dream format). But I still hope I do meet them some day. Thanks!

  • good song and i hope they hear this one day

  • Thanks, Nicole!

see all

  • Seriously.... You're that upset.... They would have just been tired or something. Would you go meet every one of your millions of fans if you had them. I think not.

    Decent song though. But you're bording on creepy with the over the top love for them...

  • This is just... WOW.

    You play and write very well, and I loved the really fast verse~! ^^

  • Very good song: fun, very well written and nicelly performed. Also nice to know everything is good now.

  • genius!!!

  • LOL. That was GREAT!

  • Holy crap!! you are awesome at guitar! (:

    I love the song<33

  • paisley - looks like you're getting bunches of views! I'm sure FOTC handlers have shown Mr. Clement your awesome song! I don't think you should change any names in the song. I've favorited you, so I don't know if it counts when I watch from my channel, I just want you to know that your song is everything I want to express, too! You've really struck a universal chord . . .
