Assessment of suitability for parodying

General

Admittedly, you are probably better off not trying to come up with a rhyme for paradise if you can leave that word unchanged. However, the rest of the words are easy to deal with.

Black Pearl crew-specific

The song is about a guy taking to a place that appeals to him despite all the things that may seem dangerous or unpleasant about it, and pirates are known to flourish in such conditions. It is all a bit surprising, but there is lots here that did not have to change. Still, it is not a 5-fodder, owing to the fact that the people it involved were clearly living on dry land.

Behind the scenes

My first parody of this song was titled You’re Welcome to Spare My Eyes, but I later decided I could do a better job than that.
