This is my submission for the 2011 YouTube Creator Institute contest. The rules of the contest state that the video must be a maximum of 2 minutes long and contain no music. I worked very hard on this video, and hope that everyone enjoys it. I will be submitting this video tonight, because I don't have time to write the two question responses that are required right now (I have to go to work), but I wanted to upload this video before I left so you all could get a sneak peek.
In part, this competition is a popularity contest, so if you all could forward it to as many people as you think of, that would be wonderful. The Creator Institute prize would be an absolute dream come true for me, as I have never had any formal training in the way of video production, aside from screenwriting.
Speaking of writing, this is my first fully scripted video. What did you think of it? I don't normally script my videos at all, unless they are researched, in which case I will write an outline. Depending on the response, I may be scripting more videos in the future. Let me know what you think in the comments section. Thanks for watching, everyone. ;-D

Sorry for the caps and multiple pastes, but a lot of people dont read the doobly-doo, and Im really proud of the full version of this song. I want everyone to get a chance to hear it!
Edit: Both full-band and acoustic versions are now available for purchase. You can get them both for $1 (or more, if youre feeling generous) by purchasing the album.
I came up with this song concept when I was thinking about how few of the characters in Harry Potter were overweight. Im a very lazy person, so Id imagine that being a wizard would make me unbelievably fat (well, fatter than I already am). As a note of clarification, there was a bit of lexical ambiguity in one of the lines of the song. When I say house-elf-pies, I am referring to pies that are baked by house elves, not pies that are made of house elves. Thats just gross.

Song Lyrics:
Perhaps you could call me lazy
Or just a tad naive
But you wouldnt see me walkin around
If I could drift along inside a pensieve
I cant be the only one out there
And I dont mean to assume
But I wouldnt be hittin the elliptical
If I could fly around on a broom
Cause if I were a wizard, Id be fat as hell
You dont need muscle when youre casting a spell
And if I were a wizard, id be overweight
Cause who needs to walk around when you can apparate?
You might say playin Quidditch
Is physical, thats true
But thats like one percent of all wizardkind
That argument just wont do
I think that im convinced now
Of a vast conspiracy
Theyre hiding witch and wizard fatties in Azkaban
And that dont sit well with me
[Chorus]
How are all these kids so fit?
Stuffing faces with House-Elf-pies?
Flying high on a hippogryph
Is not exactly exercise
You may think that physical discipline
Is part of magic folks m.o.
But honestly, I wouldnt lift a finger
Id just yell, Accio!
Cause if i were a wizard, Id be fat as hell
You dont need muscle when youre casting a spell
And if I were a wizard Id be quite obese
Crabbe and Goyle aint got nothin on me!
Yeah, if i were a wizard, Id be fat as hell
You dont need muscle when youre casting a spell
And if I were a wizard, Id be overweight
Cause who needs to walk around when you can apparate?

![Parts Of Speech: The Musical - Song Wednesday #06
This song was fun to make. Sorry for the cop-out video, but today was hellish and I didnt get hardly any sleep last night. I hope the song made up for it! Check out Ryans channel, he makes some great videos.

Song Lyrics:
Its Friday night, doing nothing tonight
Jersey Shores on, rotting my brain
Now im thinkin lets get out for the weekend
Before i start to go insane
So I called up my buddy Herb (hes a verb)
But hes way too busy for me
And then theres Viv, the adjective
But shes the chattiest fish in the sea
Life is quite strange, as you can see
When your friends are all lexical categories
Instead of hangin out, or chillin out at the beach
Youre stuck mincing words with the parts of speech
So I went downtown to see Johnny the noun
Hes my best pal, thats no lie
Says he cant come play, cause hes got to update
His resume for the billionth time
So i thought Well, theres Shaun, the conjunction...
Hes indecisive to say the least
We tried to find a place to stuff our faces
But he couldnt figure out what to eat
[Chorus]
[Musical Break]
This is not ripped off
This is not ripped off
I did not rip this off
Not at all, its original
Totally original
[Chorus 2x]
