Take a serious or famous piece, on Politics, on Browning's poetry, the Gettysburg address, on anything and make it completely absurd but do not obscure the actual piece in the process such that we can recognize it.
Example: Did you know that you can sing most Emily Dickenson poetry to the tune of the Yellow Rose of Texas?
Because I would not stop for Death
He kindly stopped for me....
Or that Gilligan's Island can be sung to the tune of Amazing Grace?
The reverse is also true but somehow, I feel disrespectful then.
I will work on one --be sure and give the orriginal its due and then have fun.
