The Lyrics
This is what happens when you're stuck in bed all day, sick with the flu. It was either watching this or Jerry Springer. Not my best, but I'm learning not to expect All 5s everytime out of "the shoot".
Today, on Reading Rainbow, Le Var sighed,
"There's a trip that we'll all take, to see a butterfly".
I know when he's all done now, when he's through,
He'll start hawking some books now. There will be quite a few!
Booksellers all love dear Le Var and sales from TV host Oprah are mighty!
With ev'ry "trip" that Le Var takes, the publishers count up their stakes.
Their banks are happy!
Next trip on Reading Rainbow, we'll all spy,
We'll fly over the film set of Harry Potter Five.
With ev'ry book there is a tie-in to make more dough,
More things we'll all buy!!!

It's a natural fit. Hope you'll be singing "Ding Dong, the flu is dead!" soon.
That was great. I loved it!
