Hi all this a fun nonsense song I came up with.
The bridge is supposed to sound a little wacky.
All comments welcome.

[Link no longer valid]


Oh a piece of pizza pizza when its time to come and greet her.
She had a piece of mozzarella on her chin.

She is the nicest girly even though she may be burley.
And all her teeth a missing when she grins.


She came from back in Roma with her hair all up in rollers.
And she whistled dixie with on a whim.

She said now I am your chef though my pallet may be cleft.
I'm the greatest pizza maker ever seen


Although her legs where hairy she made some great spaghetti.
Her macaroni is not to be despised.

Though She heaven with lasagne she'll get it done Manyana
as she painted pink massacre on her eyes.

Oh pizza pizza pizza they all came out to meet her.
With salami and some vino on the side.


All the men where coy but where over come with joy
some day she'll even make the finest bride

Bridge

Oh pizza pizza pizza they all came out to meet her.
With salami and some vino on the side.


All the men where coy but over come with joy
some day she'll even make the finest bride

Bridge

Oh a peace of pizza pizza when its time to come and greet her.
She had a piece of mozzarella on her chin.

She is the nicest girly even though she may be burley.
And all her teeth a missing when she grins.
And all her teeth a missing when she grins.

Nice work Rob4580, great work on this! Fantastic selection of instruments here and the vibe is very appealing. Great tone with the guitar too. Well done! I'm hungry now!
Rob,

Fun nonsense songs done well are really fun (and good) songs--this is one of them! Some really killer lines throughout--I was chuckling all the way through. Great stuff!

Kind regards,

Deej
"The bridge is supposed to sound a little wacky." you say? Those were carnival rides. Great big fun.

Loved the instrumentation and the sly vocal delivery. Funny lines. She knows the way to a man's heart.
Hi Rob,

Way too much fun here! Nice composition with lots of originality. Nice work! Now I'm hungry for a pizza but not to worry - our daughter is the regional office manager for most of the Dominos Pizza stores in Northern Alabama - most of our pizzas are free!

If you submitted this for the Pizza-oriented songs on Songtradr, good luck!

Alan
Works well as a meal Bob.
All three courses.
Good stuff(ing).
What a fun and inventive tune smile Love the bouncy groove throughout, and thought the mix was really clear and professional sounding. Really light hearted, and just an overall nice, easy listen.

Thanks for sharing!
I loved pizza. Love this song too. Excellent vocal. Loved the lyrics. Lots of chuckling gone on while listening. Well done
Thanks for listening Joe.

Nice to make people smile. Thanks Furry
Rob,

A very fun song!
Italian Tarantella Rhythm is very nice.
Both rhythm and melody are quite different from this song, but I remembered a certain Italian song.
Its title is "Viva La Pappa Col Comodoro". Youtube link below.

It is also a very fun song as well as your song.
The food songs are always really fun, aren't they?
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

well, i like this pizza too, only hate mozarella alas, but the cat loves that ... F
Dear "Rob4580"

In my youth songs such as your "A Piece of Pizza" were labeled as "novelty" songs. They would pop-up in the midst of radio shows dedicated to every genre of music: pop, classical, easy listening, etc, just to provide a happy surprise to the listeners.

"A Piece of Pizza" is just as delightful, musically and lyrically speaking laugh . In fact, your lyrics are so clever and funny that I read them when I wasn't listening to song. It's really quite a comic monologue, perfect for a singer who wants to please a crowd. By the way, I think your singing voice is quite smooth! It possesses the kind of tone that some would describe as "romantic", with its warm vibrato quality.

It's quite refreshing to hear music created with one of Band-in-a-Box's "World" music styles. You could turn "A Piece of Pizza" into a quick one-act show if you dressed the part and choose a leading lady "with a piece of mozzarella on her chin"! crazy

Thoroughly entertained,

LOREN (a.k.a. "bluage")
