The Lyrics
This is a special song dedicated to Devon Werkheiser and all the fans idolizing him, along with two popular Nickelodeon programs he starred in.
(Instrumental Intro)
His name was Devon, he was a heartthrob
His gorgeous body everywhere, and brown hair cut down to there
You'll always catch him on Nickelodeon
And when he tried to be a star, his fans adored him (from) afar
He's loved by all the girls, and fans in the whole world
He is young and such a hottie
Who could ask for more?
He is Devon (Dev!) Devon Werkheiser
(Devon Werkheiser)
The hottest guy you would admire (here)
He is Devon (Dev!) Devon Werkheiser
Singing and acting are his greatest talents
Oh, that Devon...you'll fall in love!
(Devon...Devon Werkheiser)
He was Ned Bigby, junior high student
Those useful tips he'd always write
in his Declassified School Guide
His best friends Cookie, and Jennifer Mosely
When they were always in a jam, they helped each other hand in hand
Which girl would Ned have chose?
Is it Suzi or Moze?
Will his school guide be very helpful
Every day, who knows?
He is Devon (Dev!) Devon Werkheiser
(Devon Werkheiser)
The hottest number one admirer (here)
He is Devon (Dev!) Devon Werkheiser
Singing and acting are his greatest talents
Yeah, that's Devon...he'll steal your heart!
(Devon...Devon Werkheiser)
(Devon...Devon Werkheiser)
(Devon Werkheiser ah ah ah ah)
(Oh ahhhh....Devon, Devon Werkheiser)
(He was admired...by social climbers)
(Singing and dancing...are his great tal..ents)
(Instrumental Interlude)
His name was Nolan, in Shredderman Rules
He was uncool and very shy, he always had a fear of heights
His alter ego: cyberspace hero
Who helped the kids all over school
And stopped Bubba from being cruel
To keep from being "Byrd-Turd"*
He had to save the world
He stopped the Bixbys from dumping sewage
That is what we've heard!
He is Devon (Dev!) Devon Werkheiser
(Devon Werkheiser)
The hottest number one admirer (here)
He is Devon (Dev!) Devon Werkheiser
Singing and acting are his greatest talents
Oh, that Devon... oh, what a stud!
Devon...oh, what a stud!
(Devon Werkheiser)
(Devon Werkheiser)
(Repeat, then fade to end)
His name was Devon, he was a heartthrob

I couldn't vote because I'm not familiar with the topic choice. I do like the OS though, and assuming I am pronouncing his name right, I believe your pacing was pretty solid. One thing I'd like to suggest is switching up the choruses a bit, think of it the way it was explained to me--it's like repeating the same joke each time you use it, instead the choruses can be an opportunity to squeeze in more humor (or in this case more tribute) Welcome to the site!
i love devon, and your song's funny!
Below Average Dave- Thanks for your suggestion. Now that I think about it, I really wished that I would have switched the choruses in my parody, as well as some minor changes. I'm pretty good with pacing, though. It's easy for me. I was also hoping to attract some teenage girls with this parody. So far I submitted 7 parodies in this site. Yeah, I used to watch Devon in this Nickelodeon show Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide now I watch it on The N network. BTW, I'm your biggest fan! I really enjoyed reading and listening to your parodies (recordings). devmonster- Thanks for your comment! I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'm so glad to meet a Devon Werkheiser fan in this site. I'm pretty much of a Devon fan myself. I've been surfing through his websites and I noticed lots of girls screaming "I love you, Devon!"; "Marry me, Devon!", it just came to me. So I decided to write a song about it. Now he's working towards his music career and I can't wait for his CD to come out. I'll definitely buy it once it's released.
I love this song that you wrote! That song should have been parodied years ago when Devon was big in Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide because I used to watch that show!!! I couldn't stop reading your parody. Devon is such a hottie who stole my heart! His sis has the same name as mine and people mistook me for her. I am sick of girls asking me to hook them up with Devon and he's not even my brother!!!!! Well, anyways, Devon Werkheiser deserves my 555's and not you, Christie! (Just kidding!)
Thanks, Vanessa and Dr. Music! BTW Dr. Music, I didn't know you heard of Devon Werkheiser! Did you ever watch Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide when it was on TeeNick, or The-N network?
I'm unfamiliar with the song, but Devon rules! I hear Ned's Declassified is back on Nick, so you should watch it again.
Thanks, DJ! :) I do watch Ned's Declassified in Nickelodeon and The N network! Devon Werkheiser is hot, all the girls love him. On my MySpace page, I got a lot of Devon fan sites in my Friend space. He's also a singer, too. His CD's supposed to come out this year, but for some reason, they keep delaying it. I heard this song "Superhero" by Devon and he sang a bunch of other songs as well. You can also watch and listen to "Barry Manilow's Copacabana" and Devon's music on YouTube.
Seriously?! He has an album!? I'll just have to check that out! Thanks for telling me.
Sorry I wasn't clear, but no, he actually doesn't have an album yet. I keep hearing that he's still working on it, but no one's sure when it will be released. But you could also listen to his music on Devon Werkheiser Music on MySpace, or go on YouTube.
Thanks for clearing that up. By the way, I'd like to visit your MySpace. I would add you, but there's one problem: I don't have a MySpace page! And I probably won't get one until I'm older. Right now, I'm 15.
(AofA) I liked Devon a lot from Ned's Declassified. Good tribute to him. And it's a bummer that his album is still unreleased to this day, apparently there were some problems between h Devon and his label. Anyway, hate the OS, liked the parody a lot! 555 School Survival Guides
Not bad. I had no idea who this fella was before I read this parody now I know. I probably would have liked this more if I was a fan of his but I've done a few fan pieces as well "Viva La Barney Stinson" for example so I don't blame you for writing it. I just wish I could have got more into it.
Nice job! The pacing was pretty spot on and it's pretty convenient that his name fits perfectly with the song title, nice work!
Thanks lots, Blademan, Matthias, and Abbott!
Blaydeman - Nice to see a Devon fan on this site! I still watch Ned's Declassified in the TeenNick channel from my FIOS. And yes, there were problems with his album being unreleased plus his songs are in iTunes now such as "If Eyes Could Speak". I parodied Devon Werkheiser's songs before on this site also. I also like Devon from "The Prankster", "The First Time" and "Three Rivers" where he was guest star. Thanks for the survival guides and speaking of which, I'll need a survival guide to stand in this contest as well as writing a better parody.
Matthias - I don't blame you if you couldn't get into this one. I understand not everybody is a fan of Devon Werkheiser. He used to be popular and famous, but now, he's mainly doing YT vids. His official YT is WerkingItOut. But he still stars in some indie movies as well as starring in Greek. So another reason why it's hard to be a fan of his is that his star went down after Ned's Declassified was canceled. Thanks for the honest comment.
Abbott- Yeah I try hard with pacing and I'm glad you enjoyed this parody, even though I wished I could've rewritten this one for the contest. But I was too lazy to revise.

Me not know who him is either, but me like.
(Ages) My thoughts before reading this: friggin' who? My thoughts after: so he's a guy I don't know who's on these shows I haven't seen on a channel I don't get...but damnit Copacabana is awesome! So yeah, don't have much to say here. Not one of your best works, IMO. Pacing was spot on, but the topic flew straight over my head. Not your fault, of course (that's like my catchphrase or something).
Thanks lots, Porfle and bobpie/TCOP! :)
Porfle - Not everybody is familiar with him, but me like your comment and me glad you enjoyed!
Bobpie - I do understand your thoughts on this particular actor I wrote a tribute about, and I also admit it isn't my best works either. I wrote this back in 2008 when he was still popular, even though you haven't seen him yet. If I would at the time, I could've written about another celeb, but I didn't have the time then. You may think it isn't my fault but I still could've written or chosen a particular parody for this contest. Overall, I appreciate your honesty and that's what I admire! I've never felt so motivated in my life! Thanks for your comment! :)

Good song, I'm not familiar with Mr. Devon, but the song was catchy (good OS choice) and flowed well.
Ages...not familiar with the actor or the shows mentioned, but I do love a good Copacabana parody. :) A couple of internal rhyming things that tripped me up, but overall, nice work here!
