The Lyrics

I was going to do a tribute to Larry King but this celebrity is closer to my age and had more varied life experiences. This might be too on the nose, but I'm not doing this for any other member of the Diamond family or anyone else who has the same surname. As you could expect, this all came from the wiki page. Enjoy.
(Long Instrumental Intro Parts 1-4)+

(Verse 1)
Remember from on TV
You filled us with glee
Great life, of Dussssstin Diamond

(Verse 2)
Your 'rents were techies at heart
When your time it did start
Great life, of Dusssssstin Diamond

(Chorus 1)
You had faked out a sex tape with celebrity copy
Got good exerrrrcise
Come on, you kid star from high school setting
Come on, you stand up, metal head, your blessing, was great!

(Verse 3)
You went to reality shows
Gathered Juggalos
Great life, of Dusssstin Diamond

(Verse 4)
Jailed for possessing a knife
And a four year wife
Great life (great life), of Dusssstin Diamond (Dustin Diamond)

(Chorus 2)
You, got bankrupt in Cally, before your finale
Acting indie films
Come on, Donnely, you Samuel Powers
Come on, you smoker, you wrestler, no downer, your great!

(Saxaphone Solo and Fade Out)

---Transition---

(Part 6 Long Instrumental Intro)>

(Verse 5)
Written book Behind the Bell
Content was not swell
Great life, of Dusssstin Diamond

(Verse 6)
Wish that we could have seen more
But couldn’t pass forty-four
Great life, of Dusssstin Diamond

(Chorus 3)(Sung by Dustin’s Ghost)*
And you’ll binge watch my programs of nostalgia success
Television and films
Thank you, for watching, for loving and laughing
Thank you, dear viewers I’ll know from your clapping, I’m great!

(Instrumental Outros)
+ = If someone were to make a video on this, feel free to make a collage of sound bites. > = Same as the other footnote about making sound bites of Dustin's career (stand up, wrestling, etc.) * = Ok. I got a little short on ideas, so this might be more of a fan appreciation aspect I was going for. #RIPDustinDiamond.
