The Justice League Moustache
It should be readily apparent that the most famous song involving a moustache should be rewritten to cover the most famous moustache in Hollywood, or perhaps the most famous absence of a moustache.
When it's time for reshoots
I put on my old boots
and hoping something special comes my way
Expectations rising
of a plot surprising
and a budget growing ev'ry day
If I got the option
of a broad adoption
of my vision of the Justice League
Then you would be smitten
how my tale would fit in
stop the DC movie fatigue
But we get the guy with the moustache
he is up and fresh from the grave
yes we get the guy with the moustache
the CG it has to him shave
(To) follow up to Snyder
the plot is going wider
and cramming ev'ry Whedon thing it can
Batman then gets stiffer
as the script now differ
we get less and less of Cyborg the man
If I was just able
Flash would set the table
and Wonder Woman could then reel us in
If I could just gather
Aquaman the bather
as the beefcake to bring the girls in
But we get the guy with the moustache
he is up and fresh from the grave
yes we get the guy with the moustache
the CG it has to him shave
The original version is the French "Les Moustaches", written by Gérard Gustin and Maurice Tézé, and presented by Sacha Distel (Youtube). However, I encountered the song in Swedish translation at Club Sunkit, a club specialising in strange, obscure, and forgotten music. Several Swedish bands in the late 60s and early 70s covered the song, and Sunkit gave the song a renaissance in the early 2000s with the cover by Thore Callmars Orkester (Youtube). And the moustache in this song is of course Henry Cavill's one in the Justice League movie.
