Will they go the way of MySpace or will this truly blow over in a few week?

"The day the music died" line comes right before the chorus, not after it. These parody lyrics look alright to me.

    API calls would be worth a fortune
    And Only Fan girls would come out to play
    Replacing users with monkeys
    And the users wept and cried

    These lines all don't fit into the song.

    Each verse goes 3 lines, 3 lines, 4 lines, 3 lines, The Day the Music Died. For example:

    "Did you write the book of love
    And do you have faith in God above
    If the Bible tells you so

    Now do you believe in Rock and Roll
    Can music save your mortal soul
    Can you teach me how to dance real slow

    Well, I know that you're in love with him
    'Cause I saw you dancing in the gym
    You both kicked off your shoes
    Then I dig those rhythm and blues

    I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
    With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
    But I knew I was out of luck

    The day the music died
