The Lyrics
On the British radio show I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue, there is a segment called One Song to the Tune of Another wherein one of the panelists takes the words from one song and sings them to the tune of another.
There is a game they play
On I'm Sorry I haven't a Clue
Where you sing the words from your favorite song
You sing to the notes of a different tune
You see it's quite hilarious
The audience gets a laugh
The songs are quite different
Two genres, they unite
Juxaposition so delight
Why don't you
Sing the words you want
To a different tune
One Song to the Tune of Another
You sing the chosen song
To the notes of another song
You sing One Song to the Tune of Another
You sing Whiter Shader of Pale
To the theme from the Muppet Show
Or maybe sing Rehab
To the tune of When I'm 64
There are many examples
There are too many here to list
I don't have all day you see
Whatever song that you sing
Leads to laughs from the crowd
Everybody's laughing out loud
Why don't you
Sing the words you want
To a different tune
One Song to the Tune of Another
You sing the chosen song
To the notes of another song
You sing One Song to the Tune of Another
One Song to the Tune of Another
Yes it's comedy gold
Nothing like it in the world
And when you sing your
Song to the crowd now
You know you will bring them all home
Possibilities are endless
Choose a pair of songs to do
One part words, one part notes
You feel you got the antidote
For the worst case of boredom
Now here is what you do
Why don't you
Sing the words you want
To a different tune
One Song to the Tune of Another
You sing the chosen song
To the notes of another song
You sing One Song to the Tune of Another
One Song to the Tune of Another
On I'm Sorry I haven't a Clue
Where you sing the words from your favorite song
You sing to the notes of a different tune
You see it's quite hilarious
The audience gets a laugh
The songs are quite different
Two genres, they unite
Juxaposition so delight
Why don't you
Sing the words you want
To a different tune
One Song to the Tune of Another
You sing the chosen song
To the notes of another song
You sing One Song to the Tune of Another
You sing Whiter Shader of Pale
To the theme from the Muppet Show
Or maybe sing Rehab
To the tune of When I'm 64
There are many examples
There are too many here to list
I don't have all day you see
Whatever song that you sing
Leads to laughs from the crowd

You sing the chosen song
To the notes of another song
You sing One Song to the Tune of Another
One Song to the Tune of Another
