'Wake Me Up When the Promo Ends' - A Song parody of WWE Authority Promos

WWE.com

First, thank you for the recs and comments on my first song parody, a take on a Gilbert and Sullivan song. I was planning on doing another one, but not this soon. It will be a takeoff of another G&S song.

And then Raw opened with another promo from the authority pimping the card for Summerslam. While Trips didn't go on for his normal 20 minutes, it still inspired me to come up with another song, this time set to Green Day's "Wake Me Up When September Ends."

So I hope you enjoy this heartfelt plea regarding the tradition of opening the shows with a promo that seems to last an eternity.

"Wake Me Up When the Promo Ends"

Trips is coming to the ring,

Talking long is now his thing!

Wake me up when the promo ends.

The authority won’t pass,

Lord, his talking lasts and lasts.

Wake me up when this promo ends.

Here comes old Trips again

Walking to the ring

Bringing fans the pain again,

‘Cause talking is his thing.

He won’t give it a rest,

He just wants to talk and talk.

Wake me up when this promo ends.

Please ring the bell, my friend.

Let the first match begin.

Wake me up when his promo ends.

Here comes old Trips again

Walking to the ring

Bringing fans the pain again,

‘Cause talking is his thing.

Feels like eternity has passed,

This twenty minutes lasts and lats.

Wake me up when this promo ends.

Oh dear God, please let this promo end.

I give up, his promo never ends.

As always, feedback, comment, and criticism are welcome. I'm also willing to take requests - suggest a topic and the song, and I'm willing to see what I can do with it.
