The Lyrics
It's that time of year...passionate fans will be glued to their sets each week rooting for their favorites in brutal bone-crushing competition. Is it football? No, it's Dancing With The Stars! ;D
Would you like to "Dance With The Stars"?
Spend a ton of mind-numbing hours.
It's more fun than hanging in bars.
Let's hope it doesn't leave some scars!
'Dancing" is back and now it's Season Eleven.
The cast looks much more like hell than heaven.
This gang's not horrible but it's still bad.
We'll soon be wishing that they still had Chad.
And 'though I'm sure this time they'll have a ringer,
At least they won't have Jerry Springer!
Oh would you like to give this a look?
It's emceed by Tommy and Brooke.
Guess each week who's getting the hook!
It's all on "Dancing With The Stars".
Kurt Warner's dancing - will he be hearing cheers?
Bolton will dance - not hurt our ears!
Fox, Norwood, Patridge, Massey in the crunch,
There's Flo Hen - mother of the Brady Bunch,
And if you've ever caught her club routine -
Bet Margaret Cho can't keep it clean!
And you will see that guy Hasselhoff.
He's from Baywatch, but don't you scoff.
Vote for him or you're a dumkopf!
His German fans will take him far!
There's Situation - he's straight from Jersey Shore -
Wish it had been Snooki - he's a bore!
And Bristol Palin's gonna strut her stuff -
Of that soap op-er-a we've had enough!
Watch as she'll cash in and use her famous name.
I thought that Levi had no shame!
In summing up - this time's dancing crew
Looks like something found in a zoo.
So please heed my advice to you:
Time's better spent driving your cars!
This year skip "Dancing With The Stars"!
;D

I'll bet The Situation would like to swing on one of those stars. With Bristol's luck, it'll probably be her. Hopefully, her taste has improved. But I think having Bolton and Hasselhoff means this show has jumped the shark. What's The Hoff going to do if that old British snob gives him a 6? Get KITT to reprogram the votes? It's not like he can go to his other show for help, although Pamela Anderson did do rather well last season.
Love it! Perfectly crafted n' perfectly crafty!... you've *so* got that special touch 'Old Man Ribber!'
Thanks all. Who would best represent amiright on Dancing? We all have rhythm of a sort...but I can testify that it doesn't translate from the bandstand to the dance floor! ;D
I vote you the winner of dancing parodies. Letterman had a great bit about the new season. . .said they'd just announced that Michael Bolton, the Hoff, and the Situation would be appearing--the stars to be announced later.
Moves MUCH smoother than thos stupid stars on the dance floor!! LOL

Ooh! Who was offended? I don't bother to watch that show, but I like your parody. I would rather see movies or re runs of West Wing.
"Jericho" gets canceled after one season, and this show drags on to eternity. Thank goodness for PBS, even if the government funds it (in part).
Hate Dancing With the Stars, nice and deserving satire of it
I've skipped it *every* year, and somehow, my life has seemed none the poorer for it -- probably better, actually. ... Great send-up. Five-star rating. (Why didn't anyone else think of that?)
Never did follow the recent season of DWTS. But I wouldn't mind David Hasselhoff, either. If I were on that show, I would've loved to dance with my celeb crush with a latin salsa beat. Here's 555 stars for this one!
I agree with all comments...very good work on this....
