Okay, I don't know if any of you have heard this...but there's a hilarious song called "The Life of a Mary Sue", written and sung by Skittle Sama, spoofing Mary Sues - in particular, Pottersues. Though this song could apply to many other breeds, too. xD

Anyway, I was listening to this for the umpteenth time, and an idea suddenly struck me...what if there was a version made for Bella Swan? Oh, just think of the lulz! It was too good to ignore, so I started brainstorming up some lyrics. And then I thought "you know, I should get the kittens in on this too!" 'Cause to be honest, I could use a hand. And I think it'd be more fun if we all pitched in. ^__^

So here's the original song/lyrics. If you get any lyric ideas for a Bella version, please don't hesitate to post them up and let us see! I'll be sure to look over all of your ideas and pick the ones I think fit best. And if all goes well, I might record it and stick it up on YouTube when it's finished! Whadaya say? =D

The Life of a Mary Sue

It was love at first sight
Inside Hogwarts school that night
When she walked up to the common room
And he was waiting there for her.
He said, "Malfoy thinks you're hot.
"And Ron really thinks you're really hot.
"And for reasons unexplained to the readers I think you're hot ... too."
And she smiled as their lips met.
A scene we won't forget,
'Cause it was close to nineteen paragraphs long...

That's the life of a Mary Sue
With beautiful blue eyes; girls envy you.
Harry's 'transfer student' lover
But death eater on the cover
Makes me wish my name was
'Cristancia' Potter too -
That's the life of a Mary Sue.

You made the Quidditch Team
Impressed everyone it seems.
And for your uniform - ripped black jeans,
And a Nine-Inch Nails T-shirt.
In love with Fred and George it's true,
But Ron is also in love with you,
And so is: Draco, Harry, Bill, Charlie, Percy, Crabbe, Goyle, Terry Boot, Zacharias Smith, Michael Corner, Neville, Seamus,
Dean, Colin Creevy, Dennis Creevy, Ernie Macmillian-!
And Justin Finch-Fletchley, too.

That's the life of a Mary Sue
You punk-goth Slytherin; boys worship you.
You're obsessed with poor Ron Weasley
And our interests waned so easily,
Lack of grammar really doesn't bother you - That's the life of a Mary Sue.

Pulled fanfiction.net to its knees
It pleads "GOD, STICK TO CANON!" so desperately.
And we can't take it anymore...
Anymore! Oh-oh!

But that's the life of a Mary Sue.
Nobody likes your stories but you.
Pottersues will keep on flaming
And you'll do all the blaming
Saying, "Nobody writes a better story than you."

That's the life of a Mary Sue
That's the life reading Potter Sues
That's the life of a Gary Stu
That's the life of a Mary Sue

Almost forgot...here are the lyrics I've come up with so far. If you have any suggestions to make them better, or come up with some lyrics of your own, be sure to let me know!

--

Every guy's in love with you
Yeah, and just to name a few,
There's: Edward Cullen, Jacob Black, Mike Newton, Tyler Crowley who-really-should've-killed-you-with-his-v­an-­but­-he­-DI­DN'­T..­.
Aaaand Eric Yorkie, too

That's the life of a Mary Sue
You smartypants brunette; boys worship you.
You're obsessed with Mr. Sparkley
And our brain cells died so easily,
Purple prose really doesn't bother you
That's the life of a Mary Sue.

Pulled all of literature to its knees
It pleads "GOD, STICK TO DRACULA!" so desperately.
And we can't take it anymore
Anymore! Oh-oh!

But that's the life of a Mary Sue.
Twilight's gotten out of hand, it's true.
All the Twihards keep on flaming
While us antis do the blaming
Saying, "SMeyer, I could write a better story than you -
In my SLEEP."

That's the life of a Mary Sue ....
That's the life of this Bella Sue...
That's the life of a Gary Stu *coughEDWARDCULLEN...
That's the life of a Mary Sue.

Here are my lyrics to a Mary Sue-ish song about Bella Swan.

It started when you met him.
I knew it would be bad.
You had your friends, you had your dad.
You had a life, even if it was sad.
But you through it all away for a boy who never aged.
That's the life of a Mary Sue.
All the boys would look at you.
That's the life of a Mary Sue.
Rosalie will hate on you.
Pictures on the wall of Edward, got 'em all, or at least I think I do.
That's the life of a Mary Sue.
That's life with a Gary Stu.
As for the fans.
You killed their grammar and their brains.
I have a headache from rage.
That's the life of a Mary Sue.
One who does stupid stuff to you.
We killed trees for a book about vampires who sparkle.
That's the life of a Mary Sue.
One who has a child, too.
The kid is a Mary Sue.
She has special powers, whoo.
Along with you.
That's the life of a Mary Sue.
Who's ending was so bad.
That's what happens to a Mary Sue.
They get out easy at the battle scene.
We waited for a Mary Sue.
Character development doesn't apply to you.
Because you're a Mary Sue.
