UPDATE 5/19/18: This song has been featured on the Dr. Demento show! Listen here: http://drdemento.com/online.html?i=DDS1820
I've wanted to do a filk to this song for quite a bit. At first I was scratching my head as to what to write it about. Then when I heard about the Bill Cosby convictions, I immediately sat down and wrote the lyrics. So, here is the dark tale about who was once one of the world's most prominent entertainers and role models.
An adaptation of "The Birds and the Bees" written by Herb Newman.
New lyrics by Erich Reinhardt.

LYRICS:
Let me tell you 'bout this so called funny guy
Who will really make you cry
When you learn about the truth
That'll wreck your youth
He was once the face of Jello and Diet Coke
Now it makes you want to choke
When you even hear his name
Cos he's hanging in shame
Once upon a time in TV land
He was really quite a star
With a cartoon show and a hit sitcom
Surely, he has gone far
Then one night a girl had went to his house
Didn't think he was a louse
But something started to unfold
She got knocked out real cold
He popped one out of the bottle and said, "Here, take this
It will help forget your strife!"
Then she fell right asleep and what happened in bed
Soon, she was scarred for life
That is only just a piece of his crimes
Now, he's going to serve some time
And all the ladies, they can sleep
Without a worry for that creep
That's the story of the greatest TV dad
Who in the end turned out so bad
People once called him a friend
And now he's going to the pen
All those women that he shook
Still give him that dirty look
Oh, he won't get off the hook
