Ok. I have an even better idea than that. A Lyrics database for false, hacked up song lyrics. I have a prototype in my user space and will link to it. As my previous idea, please vote for or against and place feedback below, and if you can, PLEASE MAKE UNLYRICS a better place with your Better Than Anidn(TM) wiki coding skillz.

- Against: That will fill up with so much crap and so little funny that I don't want to encourage it. --Sir gwax (talk) 15:18, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

- Many of us believe that you feel the same way about Uncyclopedia itself. --User:Anidnmeno/sig 16:34, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
- UnPoetry? I had a similar idea for poems: the Blind Men and the Elephant --Nerd42Talk 15:37, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
- Comment. Lyrics often end up inline in the articles on the subjects to which they pertain, for instance: Worst_100_Ways_to_Deliver_Bad_News#140-131's "Get Sir Elton John to release yet another version of Candle in the Wind" or No Orleans' "Spend your lives in hurt and misery, In the House of the Rising Flood". One other possible variant of including lyrics inline would be to include them in an article about the musician or band or (if applicable) the movie in which the song appeared. For instance, edit Pussycat Dolls to replace a certain recycled Tori Alamaze tune with "Don't cha wish your momma was hot like me?, Don't cha wish your momma was a freak like me?, Don't cha, Don't cha, Don't cha wish your momma was raw like me?, Don't cha wish your momma was fun like me?...". Or maybe don't and say we didn't. --Carlb 01:46, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
- One other possibility: instead of sticking to the uncyclopedian format, try an unnewspaper format in which the existing unnews is joined by the other usual printed newspaper sections (entertainment, sports, tv, finance, homes, cars, whatever...) and dump all of the music or musician-related stuff into the entertainment section? Dunno.
