The Lyrics
You think your day is gonna be lousy from sunrise to midnight, and then, you see... HER! They hired her back! Life is good.
(instrumental opening)
Now, when I woke up this morn
the rain was comin' down.
Soon I found the bus driver
was completely a clown.
I think I threw up.
And I gave a few groans.
But then I saw that ad.
They went back to the Jones!
Back to the Jones!
B-b-b-b-b-back!
B-b-b-b-b-back!
B-b-b-b-b-back!
Back to the Jones!
T-Mobile's a company
that hired that chick!
Their commercials were awesome!
Profits must have been sick!
But then they released her!
And they sold fewer phones!
So they figured it out, baby!
They went back to the Jones!
Back to the Jones!
B-b-b-b-b-back!
B-b-b-b-b-back!
B-b-b-b-b-back!
Back to the Jones!
(instrumental break)
I YouTube her commericals.
They always make me squeal.
And I like it when she wears
clothes that will reveal.
She may still be with Douglas
and his elderly bones.
But I'm glad that T-Mobile
they went back to the Jones!
Back to the Jones!
B-b-b-b-b-back!
B-b-b-b-b-back!
B-b-b-b-b-back!
Back to the Jones!
I keep hoping that Douglas
one day will step aside!
Until such a thing happens
this is my only ride.
Each commercial and print ad
Catherine Zeta does pwns!
And I'm here to tell ya, honey
they went back to the Jones!
Back to the Jones!
B-b-b-b-b-back!
B-b-b-b-b-back!
B-b-b-b-b-back!
Back to the Jones!
(instrumental close)

I've never used the word "pwn" in a parody before, and I may never use it again. But for her, it's worth it.
