Christopher Walken, the host, played a high school teacher who had a problem with the school board firing him if they use the original lyrics to "Greased Lightning", so he changed the words into something really weird and (intentionally) stupid:
"Go Gene Rayburn, you're burning up the quarter mile
Gene Rayburn, go, Gene Rayburn
Hubba hubba hubba hubba hubba hubba hubba FLEEM
With new pistons, plugs and shocks
Fox, fox, fox
You know that I'm not braggin'
Have you ever seen a dragon?
Gene Rayburn!"
I thought it was funny. Any other opinions?

"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott
