Mrs. Pinkie Pie Lyrics

[Guest]

Hinochi, Vex3d, and I worked together to ponyfiying the lyrics to Simon and Garfunkels song Mrs. Robinson. Hopefully we might get someponies to sing and play instruments, but for now here are the lyrics:

 

Mrs. Pinkie Pie

 

And here's to you, Mrs. Pinkie Pie

Tia loves you more than you will know (woah woah woah)

Luna bless you please, Mrs. Pinkie Pie

Equestria holds a place for those who smile

(Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)

 

We'd like to know a little bit about you and your smiles

We'd like to help you make all of your cakes

Look around you, all you see are great, big, smiling eyes

Trot around the grounds until you feel at home

 

And here's to you, Mrs. Pinkie Pie

Tia loves you more than you will know (woah woah woah)

Luna bless you please, Mrs. Pinkie Pie

Equestria holds a place for those who smile

(Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)

 

Whenever you go someplace your kindness always shows

Come down to the party with your cupcakes

It's a secret recipe, with trademark pinkie flair

Most of all you've got to hide it from the Cakes

 

Coo, coo, ca-choo, Mrs. Pinkie Pie

Tia loves you more than you will know (woah woah woah)

Luna bless you please, Mrs. Pinkie Pie

Equestria holds a place for those who smile

(Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)

 

Singing your smile song on a sunny afternoon.

Going to the party, don't be late

Laugh about it, smile about it

When they've got the blues

You're always there to bring good news

 

Where have you gone, Pinkamena Pie

Ponyville turns sad eyes onto you (woo woo woo)

What's that you say, Mrs. Pinkie Pie

We know your smile will never go away

(Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)

 

Here is a link to the original song

Cool Iike it That's really cool, I wonder how many songs people have pony-fied like that

So somepony on the Skype chat said you needed singers. As luck would have it, I'm a singer and a Beatle Brony (Peanut Crunch). I'm primarily a writer for the group, but my main area of study is singing.

 

If I could make a couple recommendations (as a fellow rewriter of popular songs).

 

1. Maybe use "dear miss Pinkie Pie" instead of "Mrs. Pinkie Pie." Miss is a bit more contextually flexible, and the words also fit the same syllable scheme.

2. Is the (hey hey hey) temporary? Smi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hi-hile would be one way to go.

3. "you and your smiles" feels a bit repetitive. I won't try and tell you what to fill that spot with, but it's an observation. You could also rewrite the third line which also talks about smiles.

 

Again, these are just recommendations and you can take or leave them.

I'll see if I can get to talking with Hinochi about it, hopefully we can work together and use your critique to help improve the piece. Thank you!

 

Any chance you know somepony who would be interested in singing it at all?

Trying to get another one of my bandmates to help. Hergest Ridge might be a possibility ("Pinkie On Crack," "The Herd (Join It)," "John de Lancie is a Bro"), but no guarantees.

 

Update: I spoke with Hergest, and he might be open to recording some instrumental stuff for the song.
