Mark Douglas is hysterically funny. With the recent performance of Mumford & Sons up here in Holland Park in Surrey; this particular musical parody was very timely.
LYRICS: Grab every single one of your friends And start a Mumford band Take a Mumford stand Ya don't need a drummer in a Mumford Band Ya just stomp your feet and ya clap yer hands Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Pack yer bags. We're goin' to mumford land We got our own spoonman Scuse me sir I'd like to know where is this Mumford land? It's somewhere between Limmerick and Williamsburg Brookland So pull up your suspenders, chug another jug of wine Tonight we're gonna party like it's 1899 We strum on our guitars so hard, we break our strummin' hands We use the toaster filter when we post on instagram We used to be the house band for The Antiques Roadshow Someone sound the trumpets now lets do some hey's and ho's Ho's and Hey's Hey's and Ho's 3 cheers for the Lumineers They're a Mumford Band And Phillips Phillips He's a Mumford man Well he's more of a Mumford kid. We saw "Oh Brother Where art Thou" And said lets start a band right now Our clothing and our songs are hand me downs (spoon solo) They way we play is pure and honest bordering on weird and Amish Technology is what we abolish in Mumfordland Cus we're a Mumford band The oldest latest fad Laddie plays the washboard, Wendel plays the fipple flute Bare Knuckle boxing's How they settle band disputes Emmet plays the jews harp and Bill plays his own mustache Thaddeus the barkeep and he makes us cocktails in a flash Joe scratches the victrola like an old timey DJ Jill's on social media she twitters from the stage We've got too many members now the stage is cavin' in Can't tell where the audience ends and where the band begins Hey mumford fans We need an ambulance
Absolutely Priceless and Mark also rips Twilight too...and anyone who rips that abomination of a movie deserves a shout-out.
Twilight Sucks (Emo Vampire Songs)
Lyrics: (spoken) Wolves. Children of a night. What sweet music they make,eh? How old are you? I have crossed oceans of time to find you. You're breath smells like dirt. (sings) Ill never be an emo vampire Setting tweenaged loins on fire Ive got nothing in common with the vampires of today They gaze at girls and pout and brood and then just run away This Twilight hack thinks she can come along and change the Vampire rules I guess sleeping in coffins and wearing capes, suddenly isnt cool Girls wont climb up trees with me or canoodle in the grass And when I play Vampire baseball I always get picked last [spoken] Seriously dudes. Thats a human you just picked over me. Ive seduced all kinds of women from all over the world But, now the only dates I get are with chunky gothic girls When did all these Vampires become abstinent and whiny When I walk into the sun I dont get all bright and shiny Vampires dont have purity rings like undead Jonas Brothers If I cant score with these high school girls perhaps Ill go for their mothers [spoken] Why not? When youre 600 years old theres no such thing as a cougar. Ill never be an emo vampire Setting tweenaged loins on fire Ill have no participation In this vampire pussification So wake me up when the world grows a pairof... ...fangs [spoken] You thought I was going to say balls didnt you?
