The Lyrics

This one is dedicated to my girlfriend, Stacy. She inspired me with her idea of a song about Oprah and her desire for more than just daytime TV success. So here you all go. Hope you enjoy.
[O-frey Dog]
It’s five o’clock and my show is on
My audience stands on its feet
If all talk hosts met at dinner time
Then I have the most powerful seat

I say “Folks
I have stories inspiring,
And guests who’ve had stress I can probe
People show me respect
And so no one suspects
My plan to take over the globe

Oh, blah, blah blah, blee blee blah
Blah blah, blea blee blah, blah, blah

[CROWD]
Sell us some crap
You are O-frey Dog
Tell us what stuff we need
Cause we’re comfortable when you are leading us
And let us know what books to read

[O-frey Dog]
Now, Phil, who’s up next,
Is my General
He subdues the crowd for me
He disparages men
Questions marriage and then
States exactly how those two should be

He says, “O,
I think Rosie opposes us
So I’ll go and enlist Donald Trump
To destroy such a clucking, large TV host
Don will verbally on her take dumps”

Oh, blah, blah blah, blee blee blah
Blah blah, blea blee blah, blah, blah

Now Tom Cruise is my evil nemesis
He wrestles and jumps on my couch
When I scheme he evades me
With religious crazy
While Katie keeps him in a crouch

We have minions who influence politics
Crowds buy magazines smeared with my face
Yes, we're sharing a
Dream called Utopriah
And designing a lizard-man race (I mean cooking)

[CROWD]
Show us this world
Called Utopriah
Show us just how to live
You’ve inspired the masses to follow you
Now tell us how much we should give

[O-frey Dog]
It's a pretty good time for a president
With the soul I need for my design
So I think when he runs
I’ll support him with funds
And soon it will be Obama time

And the college I built there in Africa
Is a clever disguise for my lair
And though I’ve conquered all
Can’t get Stedman to call
Now I tell you that just isn’t fair

Oh, blah, blah blah, blee blee blah
Blah blah, blea blee blah, blah, blah

[CROWD]
You are the ‘O’
In Utopriah
You are a ‘win’ for all
Well, we want you
To ‘frey’ our society
And you've got us hearing your call
copyright and whatever Glen Stollberger 2009+
Welcome to Utopriah

Oprah and Dr. Phil are evil. This parody is good.

Brilliant work here into turning Dr. Phil and Oprah into evil monarchs! (Wait a second... They already were!) Great stuff 2nz, you should write for South Park cause I can see an episode like this in my head.

I'm actually impressed by Oprah and I like Dr. Phil. Does that make me a minion? Seriously, some great stuff in here -- the Tom Cruise part and the Stedman part, just to name a couple. Very good Glen.

They tried to launch her over here for a coupla years, it didn't really catch on, unfortunatelly Dr Phil did though...

I'll agree with you that those two talk show hosts are evil but then you got people like Howard Stern and Jerry Springer how do you explain them? That's an evil that goes way past Dr. Phil and Oprah and into another quadrant of Hell entirely! Fun parody and a great idea!

(SOTM) Ooookay, kinda weird. Pity I've never seen a talk show in my life, otherwise I might be getting into this one a little more. Ah well.

I don't think I've seen a whole Oprah show - can't stand the format. But a good write to a fun song to parody.
Hey.. as I typed this comment, the security code changed to "XTC".. even freakier

And now ...a surprize
Everyone who has commented here has won a new car, and a new house, and a new boat, and a new dog, and...

SOTM...I could actually probably count the number of episodes of Oprah that I've seen on one hand...but found this to be funny anyway, and I HAVE known my fair share of Oprah followers. I don't think Oprah fans are any more brainwashed than fans of anyone else though. Anytime you rely on a talk show host's (or any celebrity for that matter) opinion to form your own, you're in trouble. =) Unless that talk show host is Ellen Degeneres. Then I think you'll be okay.

SOTM: I could also actually probably count the number of episodes of Oprah that I've seen on one hand, but I have 58 fingers on that hand. IB...when should I expect my car, house, boat and dog?
