From http://www.amiright.com/parody/60s/neilyoung26.shtml

Original Song Title: "Cinnamon Girl" (MP3)
Original Performer: Neil Young
Parody Song Title: "Synonym Girl"
Parody Written by: Lionel Mertens

The adjective for my synonym girl
Wouldn’t be pretty, she’s finer than fine
That’s my synonym girl

A minor in English a miner for gems
While I dig cinnamon, she digs synonyms
My homonym girl

She is the greatest, her puns are the worst
Doctors and patience, are killed by the nurse
She’s my antonym girl

A twister of diction a straight Southern Belle
She’s one contradiction that can ring my bell
A SentaMENAL girl

She loves her purple cows
I love my Lowenbrau
She can get quit absurd
I love my Violet not her words
Yeah Yeah Yeah
