Explanation[edit | edit source]

In the original Garfield strip, Jon was singing about going to the farm on Christmas, badly. Garfield and Odie couldn't stand Jon's bad singing, so they had to hitchhike.

Here, Jon is singing to I Wrote This by Patrick Star from Sing a Song of Patrick from SpongeBob SquarePants.

The author's question was what you get when you combine a segment from The Late, Late Show, an atrocious singing dork, and one of the most songs that induced vomit. He couldn't decide if it's either a mess or one of the weirdest songs that he ever came up with.

The author also added that if this gets enough reviews that are good, and he can maybe make it a thing with other songs that are bad. He said he'll include parts of them anyway.

Question: What do you get when you combine a segment from The Late, Late Show, a dork who is ATROCIOUS at singing, and one of the most VOMIT-INDUCING SONGS EVER MADE*? Well, it's either a mess or one of the weirdest things I ever came up with. What do you think?

And if this gets enough good reviews... maybe I can make it a thing with other songs that are bad (well, parts of them anyway...)

Transcript[edit | edit source]

Jon {preparing to sing}: OHHHHHHH...
Garfield: No!
{This panel and following panels show John singing WAY off-key while Garfield & Odie try their darndest to ignore it}
Jon {singing... badly}: Twinkle, twinkle, Patrick Star!
Jon {singing... badly}: I made myself a sandwich!
Jon {singing... badly}: My mommy named it Fred. It tastes like beans and bacon, and smells like it's been dead! Writing stuff is hard so I use a pointy pencil, pointy pointy pointy, pointy pointy point! P.U., what's that horrible smell?! Drum solo!
Jon {singing... badly}: I have a head, that ends in a point, pointy pointy pointy, pointy pointy point. This song is over, except for this line, you win this round, broccoli!
{up-close shot of Jon}
Jon: So, what do you boys want to sing next?
{This panel shows Garfield & Odie out of the car and attempting to hitchhike while Jon drives off}
Jon: Boys?
