“Rankings Falling”
Rankings falling to the faraway towns
Now war is declared, and battle come down
Rankings falling to the underworld
Climb out of supplementals, you boys and girls
Rankings falling, now don’t look to us
All our search listings have bitten the dust
Rankings falling, see we ain’t got no swing
‘Cept for the green of that toolbar thing
[Chorus 1:]
Personalization is coming, Web History’s zooming in
Meltdown expected, traffic growing thin
Engines stop running, but I have no fear
‘Cause Rankings are dropping, and I live by the river
Rankings falling to the imitation zone
Forget it, brother, you can go it alone
Rankings falling to the queries of death
Quit holding out, and draw another breath
Rankings falling, and I don’t wanna shout
But while we were talking, I saw you linking out
Rankings falling, see we ain’t got no high
Except for that one with the nofollow eyes
[Chorus 2: x2]
The plusbox is coming, onebox zooming in
Engines stop running, the traffic’s grown thin
A spidering error, but I have no fear
‘Cause Rankings are dropping, and I live by the river
Now get this
Rankings Falling, yes, I was there, too
An’ you know what they said? Well, some of it was true!
Rankings Falling at the top of the serps
After all this, won’t you give me a link?
Rankings Falling
I never felt so much a like [fading] alike alike alike
The Original Song:
(13 votes, average: 1.62 out of 5) Loading ...Okay, this one was kinda long, but funny:
It’s done to the song, “Boyz in da hood” by Eazy-E (RIP)
(Laughs) “Aiyo, man you remember that search engine stuff Roberta did a while back
Crazy fools said wasn’t gonna work (that dumb stuff)
Stupid crap, aiyo Roberta
Why do you come from behind the computer
and bust this search engine crap
Woke up quick, at about noon
just thought that I had to be at that party soon
I gotta get directions before the day begins
Before my peeps starting complainin’ about loose ends
About to go and almost went blind
Old friends of mine starting drawin’ direction signs
Ran in the house, fired up the HP
Gotta go to this party, it’s the place to be
Bailed outside as I printed the yahoo map
Just as I thought these fools didn’t know jack
Jumped in my Hyundai, put the pedal to the metal
I got no dents, scratches and no brake dust to settle
Then I let the Bose system play
Playing some stuff I googled yesterday
It was rap and metal at the top of the score
Then I played my own stuff and it went something like this
Cruisin’ down the street, followin’ directions
Just as the map said, I hit the intersection
Turned down the side street
Stopped at the store to grab some beer
Already late, had to kick it in high gear
A car pulls up, said follow me
A fresh little Nissan rollin’ my friend, Dee
she rolled down her window and he started to say
I know the directions, all the way
(CHORUS)
Cuz the girls in the hood always do the search first
Sayin’ some search engines are really the worst
Knowin’ nothing in life, but google and yahoo
I rolled down my window and said I got good directions, too
(SCRATCHES) yo girl
“Get the heck out”
(SCRATCHES) pump that track
“fool, say what”
Down onto Tracy’s, it’s the place
She said my girl Casey is the DJ
I knew Casey, she’s a friend of mine
’til I knew she stole a CD that I made last night
Charged down the street, to get my CD back
The silly fool said she just downloaded that
Little did she know I wrote on the CD
These songs were made by Robbie
(CHORUS)
Cuz the girls in the hood always do the search first
Sayin’ some search engines are really the worst
Knowin’ nothing in life, but google and yahoo
I rolled down my window and said I got good directions, too
(SCRATCHES) “yo Robbie”
(SCRATCHES) “beer drinking, CD stealin, googlin’ too”
Bored as what and I wanted to chill
Booted up her Compaq, to find the thrill
The fellas already had the map to the place
They googled that crap before I arrived today
They greet me with a cocktail and I start drinkin’
and Tracy said to hop in her Lincoln
Left to get my guy to search for more tunes
All he could suggest, were the blues
Went to his house to get him out of trouble
Told his parents, we’re getting to the library on the double
His mom said something that I couldn’t believe
She said he researched stuff all day and he could leave
I reached over, like a sweetie, and her hugged her tight
I said thank god he got that crap right
His father jumped up and suggested he drive
I said I’d already mapped out that jive
(CHORUS)
Cuz the girls in the hood always do the search first
Sayin’ some search engines are really the worst
Knowin’ nothing in life, but google and yahoo
But don’t quote me on that, I lie alot, too
(SCRATCHES) “who do u think you are Ms. Big Stuff”
(SCRATCHES) “rock this hoomptie all the way to the freeway”
I’m speeding now, all under control
Driving fast, I saw a hubcap roll
I looked at Dee’s car and said oh, brother
We’ll get back to my place later and google another
At the party I saw Casey inside
spinning that CD like it wasn’t mine
As I went to her at the stereo
I just wanted to B**** slap that hoe
Got my CD back and said God bless
smacked her in the head for causing me stress
Now Casey is caught for being a thief
For taking from the search engine chief
(CHORUS)
Cuz the girls in the hood always do the search first
Sayin’ some search engines are really the worst
Knowin’ nothing in life, but google and yahoo
But don’t quote me on that, I lie alot, too
(SCRATCHES) Cleveland playa
(SCRATCHES) big bass beater
I left to go but I was blocked in
Tracy’s car was behind Dee’s Lincoln
Two days later in Municipal court
Tracy started saying I scratched up her escort
Had to get a good lawyer and where to begin
Had to start the search all over again
Bailiff came in and Tracy got all nuts
She said, “you gave the verdict to these search engine nuts?”
He yelled out “Fine” and then he found that she lied
A liar and a thief is what I cried
Police threatened the girl but didn’t hurt her
She got a ticket and I concurred.
(CHORUS)
Cuz the girls in the hood always do the search first
Sayin’ some search engines are really the worst
Knowin’ nothing in life, but google and yahoo
But don’t quote me on that, I lie alot, too
(SCRATCHES)
“yeah, i started some trouble
but that was a lesson for that hussy
(SCRATCHES) “get searchin ya ya ya yall”
(14 votes, average: 1.21 out of 5) Loading ...Sittin in my living room,
me and my pc
watching my rankings go down,
I’m pacing round the room,
Tryin to figure a way,
To get my site on video streams.
Since the big daddy in 2006
The link bait I was using, didn’t do anything
The light-bulb went on and i ran to my chair
and then i just began to sing…
Chorus:
Rank for me is a necessity
I’m watchin my page rank rise
I’ve recorded my song and I’m playin it now
Watchin it on YouTube live!
People will catch on, and I’ll never let on
How easy it was to apply
I’m sailing on up in my page rank
And can get rid of my SEO guy
The Original Song :
(14 votes, average: 2.07 out of 5) Loading ...Buying a Ranking in Goo-gle
There’s a black hat who’s sure all that links well is gold
And he’s buying a ranking in Goo-gle
And when he gets there he knows if the link-backs are hosed
With a hack he can get-back where he came fromWoe oh oh one one oh
And he’s buying a ranking in Goo-gleThere’s strength on the page but he wants to be sure
‘Cuz you know sometimes SERP’s have two rankings
In a dir called DMOZ there’s a Yahoo who sings
Sometimes all our PR is misgivenWoe one oh oh one oh
And he’s buying a ranking in Goo-gleThere’s a squirming I get when I cash an Adsense check
And my scambots are faking more clickthroughs
In my dreams I have screamed: “This code has no hole!”
But I will break those who seek standardsWoe oh one one one oh
And he’s buying a ranking in Google
And it’s whispered that soon, if we all buy the Zune
Then the Apple may fall for no reason
And a new Nap will dawn for those who share songs
And the RIAA will tremor with anger
And it makes me wonder…
It may not be Choppin’ Broccoli good, but it is SEO-related 
-Jeff
The original song:
(57 votes, average: 3.61 out of 5) Loading ...At first I had no qualms
I was unethical
I’d taken bad black hat advice
It seemed so logical
But stuffing keywords wasn’t right
It was deceitful and so wrong
And I lost rank
From page one to oblivion
But now I’m back
From cyber space
I just closed my doorway page
To get back to my rightful place
I had to close that link farm down
I had to change the hidden text
If I had known my spammy techniques
Made users angry and perplexed
Click here now click, fill in the form
Just take the time now
’cause the site has been reformed
Weren’t you the one I tried to hurt with sites that stink?
Do you like the unique content?
Do you like the useful links?
Oh yes, now I
I’ll optimize
Oh as long as I know SEO
I know I can advertize
Because I’m affiliate
It doesn’t mean I’m reprobate
I’ll optimize
I’ll optimize (hey hey)
It took all the skill I had
To avoid my plight
Kept trying hard to mend
The pieces of my broken site
And I spent oh so many bytes
On what users want and so deserve
I use to cheat
But now my site is clean and neat
The URL
Is really swell
It’s not that ugly keyword monster
Giving users hell
And so you feel like dropping in
You can expect the very best
And now I have all Google’s loving
I passed the white hat test
Click here now click, fill in the form
Just take the time now
’cause the site has been reformed
Weren’t you the one I tried to hurt with sites that stink?
Do you like the unique content?
Do you like the useful links?
Oh yes, now I
I’ll optimize
Oh as long as I know SEO
I know I can advertize
Because I’m affiliate
It doesn’t mean I’m reprobate
I’ll optimize
I’ll op-tim-ize
The original song:
(14 votes, average: 2 out of 5) Loading ...Google Dance sung to the tune of Roy Orbison’s Crying
I was all right for a while
And I smiled, oh I smiled
But then I Googled last night
And watched my hair turn white
I just stopped and yelped: Oh no
Oh God my Page Rank fell
My listings as well
Another Google dance
Coming through
Google dance
Can’t be true
Oh sure, it’s fine for you
There’s MSN, or Yahoo too
But I want Google
Google
I need Google
Goooooooogle
Now I’m a broken man
With too much product on hand
And I blame
Google
What now? You, Ask?
It’s no small task
To get what’s gone once before
Oh god I’m up way too late
Please, no. Another update?!?!
That’s it I’ll have to close the store.
Ah well it’s been fun till today
Guess there’s always ebay
Another Google dance
Coming through
Google dance
What to do
Can’t run. No where to hide.
Could use Altavista but I’ve got my pride
I still need Google
Google
Not Yahoo. Google.
Gooooogle.
Yeah, Google, crying over you.
The original song:
(16 votes, average: 2.13 out of 5) Loading ...First, I shall be clear that I am only submitting this because I actually already had an seo parody written on my hard drive that I never bothered to publish from last year. I had shown it to a few people, but never had a use for it, other than amusing myself one night when I was bored, so here ya go since it appears it finally has a purpose:
SEOlebrity
Someday I’m gonna be famous
Do I have talent well, no
These days you don’t really need it
Thanks to blogs and SEO conference shows
Can’t wait to get a tour of Google
Can’t wait to beta YPN
Can’t wait to get Slashdotted
On my way to Pubcon
Cause when you’re an SEOlebrity
It’s adios reality
You can act just like a fool
And bloggers think you’re cool
Just cause your on TW
I can throw major fits
When my rank isn’t just how I like it
They say I’ve gone insane
I’ll blame it on the spam
And the pressures that go with….
Being an SEOlebrity
[Break]
I’ll get to cry to Matt Cutts
When things don’t go my way
I’ll get un-banned in a short time
No matter which guideline I break
I’ll make the SEO forum spotlights
They’ll write some awful stuff
But the more they run my name down
The more my consulting price goes up!
Cause when you’re an SEOlebrity
It’s adios reality
No matter what you do
Bloggers think you’re cool
Just cause your on TW
I can fall in and out of supp
Have websites that barely last a month
When they go down the drain
I’ll blame it on the spam
And say it’s just so tough…
Being an SEOlebrity
So let’s hitch up the programmers
And head out west
To the land of the Silicon
We’ll be relevant, optimized
linkbaiting millionaires
hey hey Mountain View
Here we come!
Yeah when you’re an SEOlebrity
It’s adios reality
No matter what you do
Bloggers think you’re cool
Just cause your on TW
Being an SEOlebrity…
Yeah SEOlebrity!

(29 votes, average: 4 out of 5) Loading ...Google, tell me ’bout the good ole days.
Sometimes it feels like
This web’s gone crazy.
Google, take me back to yesterday,
Where the line between ranking or not
Was keyword density.
Did websites really get to the top and stay?
Competing for keywords seemed more like play.
Was PageRank really something people kept,
Not just something they would get - and then complain?
Did webmasters bow their heads to pray,
That their traffic would never go away?
Woah Oh, Google,
Tell me ’bout the good ole days.
Google, everything is changing fast.
We call it progress,
And act like we understand.
And Google, let’s wander back into the past,
A sad dusty remnant of an ancient algo.

Fast forward to 2007 and the greatest search anthem ever is created. SEO-Space proudly presents “Search All Nite”.

Verse I: You search for what you want,
you keep on searchin’ till your fingers stop,
MSN doesn’t work and Yahoo is Crazy
You search for something that’s in,
results are irrelevant so you cannot win
Can Google continue to rule?
Search is crazy
You keep on searchin; you keep on searchin’
Chorus:
I wanna search all nite
and even search in the day…
I wanna search all nite and search all day
Verse II: You keep on searchin’ for your favorite phrase
the results returned continue to amaze
ASK X gives you what you want; it’s amazing
Google delivers personalized results
Microsoft evaluate their faults
Search revenues are up like crazy
You keep on searchin; you keep on searchin’
Chorus: I wanna search all nite
and even search in the day…
I wanna search all nite
and search all day
I wanna search all nite and search every day
I wanna search all nite and search every day

I wanna search all nite and search every day
I wanna search all nite and search every day

(15 votes, average: 2.33 out of 5) Loading ...This is titled, “Google is how”:
There was a time, I searched for you
Living in my mother’s basement
There was a time, I used Altavista, too
My search had not reached the end
Baby that was then
I searched for more than just ramen
This is just how, I found you
on that cheap dating site
I can’t believe all the results I see
My loneliness is behind me, gone are the fatties and cows
Google is how, google is how
Had to decide
Instant message or email
or meet in person?
Tried a search for that, too
I’ve found: Bring mace if you’re female
Google is how, I can date safely
I look around, if it’s strangers I see
The tips I’ve found, gone are the fatties and cows
That was then
Google is how
I now have the courage like never before, yeah
I’m no longer a bore
No longer a bore
Google is how
This is just how I found you
on that cheap dating site
I can’t believe all the results I see
My loneliness is behind me, gone are the fatties and cows
Google is how.
Google is how.
This was fun
