Great Big Stuff in the parade

I didn't get a chance to watch the parade. I was wondering if anyone could share what the lyric changes were in Great Big Stuff?

re: Great Big Stuff in the parade

Pouring out my ass was changed to pouring out my nose.

I want some really classy sh*t was changed to I want some really classy junk.

The fashion dates thing was changed to "humming in Hummer".

There was something else, but it had to do with Norb being a rich man. re: Great Big Stuff in the parade
What the puck?!

Well there is nothing you can do about that. Everyone is required to lip sync on the parade.

Yeah...can someone explain that rich man thing? I thought it was absolutely hilarious but I'd never heard it before.

Other changes:
"Pouring out my as*" was changed to "pouring out my nose"
"The pills to keep me happy/even when I'm suicidal" was changed to "And if I were a rich man/I'd go yeedle deedle daidle"

The lip syncing is always hilariously off for everyone who performs in the parade. I guess there's not much they can do, but it's funny to watch.

Maybe it's just me... but that song is terrible. God bless Norbert for trying to sell it.

The lyric changes were supposed to suck, right? If I were a lyricist, I wouldn't be happy about changing a showstopper for a bunch of Puritans.

The new lyrics were weak. They were so bad they made me laugh...even harder than I normally do at the dirty jokes that used to be there. "Pouring out my nose"...ok that didn't even RYHME with "A life of taste and class". Sorry Yazbek, class and nose don't rhyme. The "fiddler" thing was sort of funny, but "Hummin' in my Hummer" has nothing to do with sex in a car...I know it shouldn't be because it's in the morning but how could a play-date keep you "Humming"?

GEEZ guys..it's not like they were supposed to be fantastic new lyrics!!

They were probably hastily changed for this event, and this event only...most things they can just bleep it out and not worry about new lyrics (ie the tony's)...


and all that I could do because of you was talk of love...

I thought the "fiddler" thing was cute.

re: Great Big Stuff in the parade

Yes, I too had to laugh at the change to the word "nose," but YAY for Norbert getting publicity! He deserves it!
