Michael Weiss' Lament
by Fiona McQuarrie


(to the tune of the Village People's "YMCA")

Michael
Skated out on the ice
And then Michael
Did a program so nice
Well, yeah, OK
He fell down once or twice
But he was the most handsome guy


The judges
Put him in seventh place
And then Michael
Got a frown on his face
Never happened
All those flaws he'd erase
Just by telling the world....


(chorus)
He got ripped off
Saying to the reporters
He got ripped off-ff
It's not his fault, it's not his fault at all
Judging's controversial


Uh-oh
It's an Olympic year
You'd think Michael
Has a few things to fear
If he doesn't
Get his act into gear
He's an Olympic couch potato


It's OK
Michael has a big plan
He'll get pumped up
He's a real manly man
Sell more posters
Rub on that baby oil
And get rich without toil
But don't you ever forget...


(chorus)
He got ripped off
It's all the skate order!
He got ripped off-ff
And we won't say a thing, no, not a single word
'Bout the next guy who placed third...
