A duet with Bill Larkin, written as a tribute in honor of Dr. Demento's 84th Birthday and performed live at his birthday party in Lakewood, CA, April 5, 2025.

lyrics

Everyone’s stressed out from all that I’ve heard
I’m pretty sure Elmo just flipped me the bird
It can drive you to madness til you can’t carry on
But you can’t lose your mind if it’s already gone… so…

Wind up your radio
Let’s get demented
Gentlemen and all your lady-os
Let’s get demented
Tell your kin - Tell your twin!
That the doctor is in
let’s get demented

They say you need meds- what you might need instead
Is some Cocktails for Two and a Boot to the Head
Sure, some of these singers are twisted or sick
Like Lehrer, Silverstein and - who’s that guy? Yankovic?

wind up your radio
And Let’s get demented
He took my call in the eighty-ohs
Let’s get demented
There’s stacks
Oh there’s stacks . .
Of laughing wax
let’s get demented

Yes, we’ve all come to honor this great pioneer
Except though for Dave…..
Who Dave?  Dave’s not here.

wind up your radio
And Let’s get demented
With the millions of records he played-io
Let’s get demented
Let’s get numb, let’s get dumb
Fishheads!
eat them up YUM!
let’s get demented

They’re coming to take me away haha
And I don’t care
As long as they get KMET
Dead puppies are fun!
they’re going to put you in the ASPCA
Joke’s on them they won’t have me
Don’t look Ethel!
It’s was too late she’d already been mooned
Meet me at Pico and sepulveda
and let’s get demented
