I am not a musician or songwrither so I was hoping somepony could help or would be in using theses altered lyrics to produce a mlp spoof of the song "Can't Fight The Moonlight" based on the events of the season 5 opining episodes. here are my proposed lyric changes.

  

Going to get to your mark

"Can't Fight The Moonlight" spoof
 

Under Equesria's sky 
Gonna be with us 
And no pony's gonna be around 
If you think that you won't fall 
Well just wait until 
Til the sun goes down 

Underneath Starlight - Starlight 
There's a magical staff of sameness
It'll steal your mark tonight 

You can try to resist 
Try to hide from my magic
But you know 
But you know that you can't fight Starlight
Deep in the dark 
You'll surrender your mark
But you know 
But you know that you can't fight Starlight

No, you can't fight her
She’s gonna get to your mark

There's no escape equality
You were gentle breeze 
until spell took away your mark 
No matter what you think 
It won't be too long 
Til you’re in my hooves  
Underneath Starlight - Starlight 
We'll be lost in equality - so right 
Feel it steal your mark tonight 

You can try to resist 
Try to hide from my magic 
But you know 
But you know that you can't fight Starlight 
Deep in the dark 
You'll surrender your mark
But you know 
But you know that you can't fight Starlight

No you can't fight her
No matter what you do 
starlight is gonna get to you 

Don't try then 
You're never gonna win 

Underneath Starlight - Starlight 
There's a magical staff of sameness
It will steal your mark tonight 

You can try to resist 
Try to hide from equality 
But you know 
But you know that you can't fight Starlight 
Deep in the dark 
You'll surrender your mark
But you know 
But you know that you can't fight Starlight  
No, you can't fight her

You can try to resist 
Try to hide from my magic
But you know 
Don't you know that you can't fight Starlight 
Deep in the dark 
You'll surrender your mark
But you know 
But you know that you can't fight Starlight 
No, you can't fight her
She’s gonna get to your mark

Sadly i cant make a spoof of an already made song. I compose music only and sing covers though i wish you good luck on that. i know how hard it is in making music :)

just making the lyrics is good enough for me but I just put this out there in case anypony wanted to give it a try. I am more of a artist/author

I can make a cover for you...

 

But to be honest...the lyrics are quite cheesy. You told too much instead of show. A big rule of thumb when writing lyrics is to "show, don't tell". Show the yearning of Starlight, in wanting to get the cutie marks. Show her insanity as to think that a cutie mark breaks ponies apart. When you tell too much, the lyrics become unnatural and forced. 

 

I can help you revamp this in addition to making a cover.

If you want to revamp this I would be fine with that as I said I am not a song writer and all I have done is chance a few words here and there to make it a song about ponies not falling in love
