On Don

'Twas in nineteen eighty six,
Oprah was beggin' dapper Don
Johnson of all the dudes and chicks
To pretty, pretty please come on
Her new national show. Alas,
Rhinestone shades were not enough.
The Miami Vice star did pass.
So common folk became the stuff
That Oprah featured for show one.
Don Johnson slowly faded out,
While Oprah ran a winning run.
That's what show biz is all about.

Don Johnson's beggin' doncha know,
To guest star on Oprah's show.
