Morris Minor and the Majors used to be a British comedy band composed of Tony Hawks, Paul Boross, and Phil Judge. They were a One-Hit Wonder that was active only in 1987. Most of their musical production is joke or parody songs.

This Is a Song

comment
This Is a Song: "This is the Chorus" is a parody of Stock Aitken Waterman that describes how formulaic it is.

Lyric Swap

comment
Lyric Swap: The chorus of their Stock Aitken Waterman parody "This is the Chorus" concludes by warning "And thirty seconds from now you're gonna hear it again". This obviously doesn't work for the final chorus, so they add one last Kylie Minogue reference with "And if you're lucky, lucky, lucky, you won't hear it again".

[Trope Name]: "This is the Chorus" parodies clichéd choruses (and songs) by generalizing them into a simple, overused format.

"How I Wrote This Article" Article: "Another Boring B-Side" (the b-side of "Stutter Rap") details the cynical process of writing a song that most people will only listen to once.

comment
Piss-Take Rap: They once charted with "The Stutter Rap". Four rappers named after a British car that wasn't even trendy back in The '50s. All with stutters. It was not meant to be serious.

Subverted Rhyme Every Occasion

comment
Subverted Rhyme Every Occasion: "Stutter Rap" One example: Another example. In this case, people expect to hear 'nineteen' ...and yet again, misdirected 'No Sleep 'til Brooklyn' lyrics: The B-side of this record, "Another Boring B-Side", contained this double example, where the first averted rhyme becomes the set-up for the second: The follow-up, the Stock Aitken Waterman parody "This is the Chorus" opens

Ear Worm: "This is the Chorus", a parody of all the late 1980s Stock Aitken Waterman hits, has the line: "This is the Chorus, This is the Chorus, It goes round and around and gets into your brain".

Who Writes This Crap?!: "Another Boring B-Side" lampshades that crappy songs are the way they are because they are cheap and soulless.
