The Lyrics
Blue jean baby, L.A. matey, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a merry man
Ballerina, you must have seen him dancing in the stand
And now he's in me, always with me, Tony Danza in my hand
Jesus freaks out in the street
Handing tickets out for G-d
Turning back he just laughs
For the show, that's not so bad
Piano man he makes his stand
In the auditorium
Looking on he sings the songs
The words he knows, the tune he hums
But oh how it feels so real
Lying here with no one near
Only you and you can't hear me
When I say softly, slowly
Hold me closer Tony Danza
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me darling in sheets of linen
'Cause were the only men who dare to dance
Blue jean baby, L.A. matey, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a merry man
Ballerina, you must have seen him dancing in the stand
And now he's in me, always with me, Tony Danza in my hand
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a merry man
Ballerina, you must have seen him dancing in the stand
And now he's in me, always with me, Tony Danza in my hand
Jesus freaks out in the street
Handing tickets out for G-d
Turning back he just laughs
For the show, that's not so bad
Piano man he makes his stand
In the auditorium
Looking on he sings the songs
The words he knows, the tune he hums
But oh how it feels so real
Lying here with no one near
Only you and you can't hear me
When I say softly, slowly
Hold me closer Tony Danza
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me darling in sheets of linen
'Cause were the only men who dare to dance
Blue jean baby, L.A. matey, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a merry man
Ballerina, you must have seen him dancing in the stand
And now he's in me, always with me, Tony Danza in my hand

Great title! LOL
It WAS a great title...and then the parody was the original song with three words changed. Dammit...I had such high hopes...
U got the name before I thought it and now I'm too late. It's ok, good job!
Lisa Kudrow did this on "Friends" in 1996. There's a way this could have been done for real, but this isn't it.
That "hold me closer Tony Danza" thing must be one of the best misheard lyrics ever. This one's a "five-star", but I've never heard the OS yet.
