The Lyrics

This parody is all about my favorite segment of the David Letterman show. I have several Top 10 List books dating from the early 1990s, and they are still funny although some of the topics, such as Dan Quayle, boycotting General Electric (GE) and Bill Clinton, are now dated. Enjoy!
David, David Letterman
Letterman's Top 10 Lists

I could never see how funny they could be
'Til I bought that book at the yard sale
David made me see the top 10 strangest things
Like Dan Quayle and boycotting GE

David, David Letterman
Letterman's Top 10 Lists

It seems like yesterday
I never watched late-night TV
And now I watch every chance I get
Each and every night

Every night, at midnight's hour
I sit in my La-Z-Boy
And watch the Dave Letterman Show

David, David Letterman
Letterman's Top 10 Lists

I am hooked for eternity
I will watch Dave every night
I'll lose sleep, but naturally
Watchin' Dave just seems right

David, David Letterman
Letterman's Top 10 Lists
Happy Holidays!

Thanks Alvin, your comments are always appreciated. FYI, I got the idea for this parody when I was waiting to (belatedly) have snow tires put onto my car and the OS was playing on the radio in the tire store. I was also reading a circa-1993 David Letterman Top-10 list book that I had brought from home, and thanks to the fact that I memorized the OS' lyrics as a small child, I wrote the parody down on a piece of notepaper. I got onto Amiright and plugged it into the "Submit a parody" feature upon returning home.

Thanks, Tyrone. I can't remember the exact name of my fave, but it has to do with food vendors in New York City. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I was a huge Johhny Carson fan, but for a while now I've thought Letterman is better - nice write Andria - 555

Thanks Stuart, Letterman is one of the best commedians in my opinion, although he lacks the huge car collection and associated automotive knowledge of his rival Jay Leno.
