Lyrics

[Verse 1] "We proudly welcome Tony Orlando" The state fair marquee reads Inside, one thousand people with yellow ribbons sing And clap on one and three [Chorus] Watch him burn He's dropping to his knees Watch him burn A medley, hits from Grease Watch him burn He never fails to please [Verse 2] Meanwhile in Tahoe, outside Casa Tony Wetting rags in gasoline A jealous Frankie Valli says, "Dawn, I want you back" Lights a match and counts to three [Chorus] Watch it burn Reluctantly he leaves Watch it burn Acrid smoke making him wheeze Watch it burn Humming "Sherry," splits the scene [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] Watch it burn Reluctantly he leaves Watch it burn Acrid smoke making him wheeze Watch it burn Humming "Sherry," splits the scene [Outro] We're sorry to inform you Tony Orlando has been postponed
