Dementia '99

In the year of 1970,
Underneath the old smog berry tree,
First was heard a man that we all know,
The one and only Dr. Demento.

Pre-Show #1
Pre-Show #2

Nixon, Ford, and Carter, Reagan too.
Remember all they did and didn't do?
Through it all, one consistency:
Spending once a week with Dr. D.

So wind your radios way up tight,
Raise your glasses high tonight.
Like wine, his spirit has fermented,
So here's to him, the one who stays demented.

At the Show #4

Changes come, seasons pass,
Like Alice through the looking glass.
He shares a world of madness that we cheer
For fifteen roly-poly years.

So wind your radios way up tight,
Raise your glasses high tonight.
Like wine, his spirit has fermented,
So here's to him, the one who stays demented.

Don't forget to stay demented!

Everybody sing!
He has a very friendly, fuzzy face,
And nobody could ever take his place.
His fans around the globe will never dwindle,
'Cause he fits so many records on his spindle.


South Park #1

Stacks of laughing wax from floor to ceiling.
Well, it gives him such a warm internal feeling.
Whether you're Italian or Egyptian,
He's bound to fill your musical prescription.


South Park #2

Wind your radios way up tight,
Raise your glasses high tonight.
Like wine, his spirit has fermented,
So here's to him, the one who stays demented.

Wind your radios way up tight,
Raise your glasses high tonight.
Like wine, his spirit has fermented,
So here's to him, the one who stays demented.


South Park #5

In the year of 1970,
Underneath the old smog berry trees,
First was heard a man that we all know,
The one and only Dr. Demento.
Yeah.
