Lyrics for Let's Save Tony Orlando's House

"We proudly welcome Tony Orlando" The state fair marquee reads Inside, a thousand people with yellow ribbons sing And clap on 1 and 3 Watch him burn He's dropping to his knees Watch him burn A medley: hits from "Grease" Watch him burn He never fails to please Meanwhile, in Tahoe, outside Casa Tony Wetting rags in gasoline A jealous Frankie Valli says: "Dawn, I want you back" Lights a match and counts to three Watch it burn Reluctantly, he leaves Watch it burn Acrid smoke making him wheeze Watch it burn Humming Sherry splits the scene Watch it burn Reluctantly, he leaves Watch it burn Acrid smoke making him wheeze Watch it burn Humming Sherry splits the scene "We're sorry to inform you Tony Orlando has been postponed"
