The Barry Williams Show |
| Lets go One man at the window |
| One girl at the bar |
| Saw that look of recognition |
| When they know just who you are |
| I seen you on the tv I seen you on that show |
| You make the people crazy |
| And then you let them go Before the show we calm them |
| We sympathise, we care |
| And the hostile folk we keep apart |
| til the red light says on air |
| Did you see our leather lovers |
| All tied up to the chair |
| Did you catch those child molesters |
| No one else goes there |
| What a show, the barry williams show |
| What a show, |
| Dysfunctional excess |
| Is all it took for my success |
| The greater pain that they endure |
| The more you know the show will scored |
| Its showtime |
| Got the reputation of a surgeon |
| cos they cannot feel the cut |
| It looks so very simple |
| But it really is an art |
| They call our studio the hospital |
| Making money from the sick |
| We let people be themselves |
| There is no other trick |
| my lover stole my girlfriend |
| i keep beating up my ex |
| i want to kill my neighbour |
| my daughters selling sex |
| my s/m lover hurt me my girl became a man |
| i love my daughters rapist |
| my lifes gone down the pan |
| What a show, the barry williams show |
| The barry williams show |
| Dysfunctional excess |
| Is all it took for my success |
| And when the punches start to fly |
| The ratings always read so high |
| Its showtime |
| that girl has got no scruples |
| Not a wrinkle on her face |
| You would not believe the plot she conceived |
| So theyd let her take my place |
| Well, no man is an island |
| No man is a sea |
| But this display of emotion |
| Is all but drowning me What a show, oh what a show |
| On my show, the barry williams show |
| Its my show |
| What a show |
| Dysfunctional excess |
| Is all it took for my success |
| The best tv youve ever seen |
| Where people say the things that they really mean |
| I hear my name, I hear them roar |
| For the one more time I take the floor |
| Just one more barry williams show |
| Were gonna take you where you want to go Its showtime |
| Come on down |
| Come on down |
