Lyrics

Well life on the air is enough to make you crack
There's alot an old bald man like Tony can't hack
it's early to rise, early in the sack
Grandpa he's a grumpy guy

Well he likes to see a movie any night that he can
but it ain't no secret that he'll never see the end
He'd like to write a tweet but he don't know how to send
Oh Tony you're a cranky guy

He's got himself some red wine, chicken in the roaster
"Don't Worry Baby" the steaks are in the toaster
He used to be a writer, now a big show hoster
Thank God for the Orange Guy

Well he hates to cross a bridge, never see him board a plane
when he's close to Courtney he can really make it rain
He plays a lot of golf, never mind the knee pain
Grandpa he's a grumpy guy

Well the newspaper game has really fallen flat
The radio and television, that's where it's at!
You gotta love a guy who does it all for the cash
Hey Satch' you're greedy guy

Nigel's got the mailbag, Kevin's got the weather
Jerry's got the jingles, and Gary's got the ERRRRR
Write it all down I guess it sounds kinda clever
Thank God for Tony Porthouser!
