Spontaneous Lyric Rephrases?

Today I am grateful for ad libbing..?

or maybe spontaneous lyric rephrases?

I'm not exactly sure what you call it.

The Marsh has this horribly obnoxious habit of changing song lyrics to whatever his liking is at that particular moment. and when I say obnoxious, i mean it. nothing kills Elton John faster than The Marsh's rendition of "Hold me closer Tony Danza." just saying. and while i do on occasion get completely irritated with him for doing it while I'm trying to listen to a song, i have to admit i'm usually quite impressed with his ability to come up with new lyrics on the spot the way he does. however ridiculous.

although.

he actually has one about a possible pervy frosty the snowman.

It was the funniest fucking thing in the entire world traumatized.

I'm sure my toddlers are still scarred.

So why, if I find this particular habit if his so completely UNcharming, am i grateful for it today?

well. we were listening to Pay Phone by Maroon 5. If you are unfamiliar with the song here are some of the lyrics...

If "Happy Ever After" did exist,
I would still be holding you like this
All those fairy tales are full of it.
One more stupid love song, I'll be sick

and The Marsh? he doesn't really like depressing down in the dumps type songs. so he started singing his own song. I was just getting ready to tell him to quit it when he sang...

If "Happy Ever After" did exist,
I would be living at (insert our current address here)
All those fairy tales are full of win,
And I'll be reading them to my kids....

I know.

He's the biggest dork in the entire world.

but he's my dork.

and I'm not gonna lie, him singing those made up lyrics definately brought a smile to my face. he's just too sweet for his own good.

so tonight i'm grateful for The Marsh's little fake songs. and our own "happy ever after" taking place right here in our home.

Thanks for reading!
