Fang, Fang, Fang til Xi Jinping takes the T-Bird away.

The whole California delegation is compromised and pro China traitors.

Slept with a cheap w**re
and all she got for it was a few state secrets.

Scansion. It's a thing.

Well, you may know a lot about poetry. Probably have a Masters in some bullshit subject like Study of Famous Womyn Poets of 1892.

You don't know dick about pop culture, however.

What Starsign911 was very cleverly doing was reimagining the lyrics to the popular Saturday morning cartoon "Hong Kong Phooey" featuring the master, Scatman Crothers. The original went something like this:

Hong Kong phooey, the number one super guy
Hong Kong phooey, quicker than the human eye

It's a thing.

Well I considered using something like "quicker than Swalwell's third eye" but that kinda violated the scansion thingy as well.
And I wanted to emphasize both the compromised and China Ties bits because that whole possible treason thingy seemed of more import.

I did add the word "and" to give it a little bit of assonance with the word "can't."

I also briefly considered rhyming Swalwell with "kiss and tell" and "should be thrown of the Intel... Committee", but...

Since it's a meme and not Haiku Phooey I decided that despite my lapsed poetic license to damn the syllable count and the scansion.
I deemed it sufficient to point out the Fang Fang Faustian bargain / tryst Swalwell has apparently made whilst invoking a Man / Underdog Ripoff who went to China, learned their secrets and emerged with his integrity intact... if not his dignity.

Bye the way... Fang Fang Faustian Tryst is an okay name for a band. Marilyn Scansion is not bad either.

So... the rhythm was pretty bad.
I changed it to:
Fang Fang Phooey, Number One Super-Spy!
Compromised by China Ties.
It's Kiss and Intel that Swalwell
Can't Deny.

Probably won't post the new one... but it sounds better. Thanks.

Post it just to piss them off.

It's still too many syllables.

The trouble is you're trying to say too much at once. Sometimes, less is more. Would it be so terrible if you settled for "Intel that you can't deny"? That would be fine.

And it would raise the standard of "change the lyrics" memes because they would all be better if they scanned better.

Isn't part of your complaint with the election in the first place a gripe you have with the way things scan? ;)

"Since it's a meme..." Sums it up quite nicely and is something that our other friend here doesn't get.

I've known for quite some time that any opinion he sees that he doesn't like he'll ask for evidence that's admissible in court otherwise he'll dismiss dissenting opinions outright.

Now he's asking for perfect scansion in a meme? Give me a break!

Also, have you noticed that he can't argue that this didn't happen, that China didn't get tons of intel, that Pelosi didn't screw up by keeping him on the intel community? Nope, he can't argue any of that so he simply says "scansion it's a thing". Priceless!

I know what Hong Kong Phooey is, you arrogant asshat. Now, count the syllables.

"quicker than the human eye"

"Compromise and China ties that Swallwell can't deny"

Maybe counting is too much for you? How about this: just sing it allowed to the tune. What do you notice? Did you notice that you actually couldn't make the new words work to the original song?

So CLEARLY I know what the song was - that was what I was getting at IN THE FIRST PLACE. You're unbelievable! You really are!

Like Jesus, God, and Santa Claus - you don't believe in me yet you talk to me all of the time.
