Go see the new sensations, Clarkson and Aiken and Studdard are the toast of the town
Whom Seacrest has crowned, there's talk all around, and everybody wants to be the next Idol now

I'm talking Idol! Fantasia and LaToya
Talking Idol! Kim Locke and Tamyra
And John Stevens sounded just like Frank
We got all those new singers we should thank
Especially Kelly, Ruben and Clay

Jon Peter's in a rock band, George Huff is now a soul man
And we all love Miss Jennifer Hudson
Randy's the big fat dawg, on the best show of all
And Ryan traded insults with a Brit named Simon

I'm talking Idol! Sweet Diana DeGarmo
Talking Idol! Jasmine Trias, Camile Velasco
And big Matt Rogers was a star in L.A.
We got all those new singers we should thank
Especially Kelly, Ruben and Clay

Now my friend Justin Guarini, well he starred with Kelly Clarkson in a film
And girls called the radio station just to meet Clay
And me, I even met Ruben Studdard
American Idol's so great!

See Cowell kiss Paula and then dis all the divas
And then see them voted off, one by one
They're making new records, while honoring the old records
And just hearing them sing, it sounds like fun, fun, fun

I'm talking Idol! William Hung did not get in
Talking Idol! But his record is still banging
One by one, all the hopefuls fall
Till we've found the best one of them all
Along with Kelly, Ruben and Clay

Kelly, Ruben and Clay (Clarkson, Clarkson, Clarkson)
Here with Kelly, Ruben and Clay (Aiken, Aiken, Aiken)
I'm talking Kelly, Ruben and Clay (Studdard, Studdard, Studdard)
