• I Wrote This

Twinkle, Twinkle, Patrick Star,

I made myself a sandwhich.

My mommy named it Fred,

It tastes beans and bacon,

And smelles like it's been dead.

Writing is hard so I used a pointy pencil

Pointy, Pointy, Pointy, Pointy, Pointy, Point.

P.U., what's that horrible smell?

Drum solo!

(Drum Solo)

I have a head,

It ends in a point

Pointy, Pointy, Pointy, Pointy, Pointy, Point.

This song is over,

except for this line,

You win this round,

Broccoli!

Plot

Patrick and SpongeBob go to a comic book store, and Patrick sees an ad for a contest. He takes SpongeBob's comic book money to enter the contest, and submits a entry called "I Wrote This" a song that doesn't make any sense whatsoever. The paper smells terrible when he submits it. Then, when the radio people apparently die doing it, SpongeBob and Patrick try to get the song on the radio. They immediately get kicked out of the building because they hated Patrick's entry, so they climb up the Radio Tower and gum a record player to the top. Everybody considers it ("I Wrote This") an abomination (except Old Man Jenkins) and form an angry mob, headed by Fred. They chase Spongebob and Patrick down and Patrick starts to sing the song in front of everyone until his old gym teacher arrived saying that Patrick never learned his lesson, which leads to the two getting pelted by more dodgeballs, and the episode ends.

A poem by Patrick Star (this poem was written by Patrick when he was little)

Roses are blue

Violets are red

I have to go the bathroom now

Cultural References

• Patrick's "A Poem by Patrick Star" is a spoof of Roses are red poems, which are commonly parodied in popular culture.

Trivia

• The original title for this episode was "I am the Starfish" a parody of the Beatles song "I am the Walrus". This was said in a UK Kraze Club Magazine on a sneak peek of new SpongeBob SquarePants episodes. Patrick's song doesn't make any sense, just like the Beatles song, and was originally going to have the phrase "I am the Starfish" in the song. It was changed two weeks later to "Sing a Song of Patrick" because of a big problem with EMI.
• It is revealed Patrick is afraid of dodgeball.
