Assessment of suitability for parodying

General

This is probably one of the hardest songs on the album, thanks to its odd, murky subject. It appears to be about an encounter with a stoned woman. But you say a neon Vacancy sign in her eyes? Are you sure you are not the one on the drugs?

Black Pearl crew-specific

Excellent though the parody is, this has to be rated good, not great, fodder, for reasons covered above, as well as the fact that they did not have neon in the 18th century.
