\nMusic: “Ghost Riders in the Sky” by Stan Jones<\/p>\n
Teenagers in my Car (parody of “Ghost Riders in the Sky”)
\nBy Shannon Cerneka and Orin Johnson<\/p>\n
Douglas Corby cringed the day they asked him to appear.
\nFear and doubt ran through him as he watched the day draw near.
\nHis local parish youth group needed one more chaperone
\nTo take the yearly ski trip – his future was unknown.<\/p>\n
Refrain
\nWhat have I done, what did I do,
\nteenagers in my car.<\/p>\n
They all met at the parish on a Friday afternoon;
\nWhich of them would be his riders he would find out soon.
\nHe never thought who rides with whom would matter all that much,
\nBut when the moment came to leave, he marveled at the rush. <\/p>\n
Douglas wasn’t ready for the ride that he endured,
\nSeven hours of Jonas brothers left his senses blurred,
\nA great relief went through him as they finally arrived,
\nThose teenage girls had done their best… but he was still alive. (to refrain)<\/p>\n
Everybody seemed to feel the trip was a success.
\nOut of all the chaperones, the kids liked Douglas best!
\nSo you can surely understand their shock and sadness when
\nHe joined the monastery and\u2014 was never seen again. (to refrain and final refrain*)<\/p>\n
