That's Not Torture
To "That's Amore"
(Words by Jack Brooks
Music by Harry Warren)
Parody Lyrics by Marcy Shaffer
Arranged by Greg Hilfman
DETAINEES: FEAR--
DICK CHENEY'S HERE.
FOR IN HIS SPHERE.
IT'S VERY CLEAR …
WHEN A GUY HITS YOUR EYE
'CAUSE YOUR VALUE IS HIGH?
THAT'S NOT TORTURE.
WHEN WE KEEP YOU FROM SLEEP
'TIL YOU WEEP LIKE BO-PEEP?
THAT'S NOT TORTURE.
BUGS HAVE CHARMS.,
ZIPPING UP YOUR ARMS.
TRIPPING YOUR ALARMS.
OUR GENDARMES WON'T DENY IT.
AND A HOOD.
WHEN IT'S UNDERSTOOD.
CAN BE REALLY GOOD.
SO NO ONE SHOULD DECRY IT.
(OR DEFY IT.)
WHEN WE FLOAT DOWN YOUR THROAT
WHAT WOULD BLOAT UP A MOAT?
THAT'S NOT TORTURE.
OH, WE'RE FROWNIN' BUT CLOWNIN'.
NO DROWNIN' GOES DOWN IN
THIS TOWN.
AND THOUGH, DUDE, WE INCLUDE
THAT YOU'RE VIEWED IN THE NUDE.
JUST FOR SPORT-URE.
SO YOU BLED.
WEREN'T FED.
SINCE YOU AREN'T, SAY, DEAD.
THAT'S NOT TORTURE!
WHEN A GUY HITS YOUR EYE
'CAUSE YOUR VALUE IS HIGH?
THAT'S NOT TORTURE.
WHEN WE KEEP YOU FROM SLEEP
'TIL YOU WEEP LIKE BO-PEEP?
THAT'S NOT TORTURE.
WHEN WE FLOAT DOWN YOUR THROAT
WHAT WOULD BLOAT UP A MOAT?
THAT'S NOT TORTURE.
OH, WE'RE FROWNIN' BUT CLOWNIN'.
NO DROWNIN' GOES DOWN IN
THIS TOWN.
AND THOUGH, DUDE, WE INCLUDE
THAT YOU'RE VIEWED IN THE NUDE.
JUST FOR SPORT-URE.
SO YOU BLED.
WEREN'T FED.
SINCE YOU AREN'T, SAY, DEAD.
THAT'S NOT TORTURE.
THAT'S NOT TORTURE!
