I was watching the Christmas classic 'Home Alone' and i noticed that the subject of the classic 1968 hit 'Ode To Billy Joe' by Bobbi Gentry had the same last name as the little boy portrayed by Mccaulley Caulkin.................
I thought I'd try to write a remake (or variation) of this song. I call this 'Ode To Little Kevin McCalister'':
Little Kevin's family was angry and getting on his case
When Kevin woke up lookin' for his family but he saw no trace
Mama gave Kevin a 'time out' because he was giving her lip
The family forgot the little runt, they went away on their Christmas trip
At the luggage carousel they passed around the stuff he packed
Mama screamed KEVIN! and she felt terrible that she lost track
She had sent him to his room when He was mouthy and Mama didn't like his tone
and now it seems Kevin McCalister was left hone all alone
Well, little Kevin was home alone, but he did just fine
He smashed his brother's shelf that he was trying to climb
He was low on food so he went and got some more
He got some goodies and paid with cash at the grocery store
Little Kevin was home alone on Christmas but he was brave
He screamed and his pores tightened when he tried on Dad's aftershave
There were two bumbling burglers casing Kevin's family home
Somehow they found out that Kevin Mccalister was left home alone
So, one of he burglars stuck his head right inside the doggy door
Kevin shot them with a toy gun and asked them 'Do you idiots want some more?
The burglars slipped and fell and almost broke their turkey necks
They swore they'll put an end to the little bratty smart aleck
Little Kevin was only having fun defending his family home
It was that time tat Kevin Mccalister was left home alone
It's been 30 years and there were Home Alone sequels that weren't half bad
Nobody ever called Child Protection Services on Kevin's Mom and Dad
Everyone has grown up and tthe kids have all moved away
Except for those two burglars, They're still in prison today
The brothers and sisters still come to their Mom's and Dad's Home Sweet Home
and laugh about the time Kevin McCalister was left home alone
