"Scooby-Doo, Where Are You?" - theme song from the series of the same name
“Some people might label me a ladies’ man. The bad boy type in Billy Joel songs. But that’s not the real me. And despite some of my better-known hits, I tend to see people for who they are on the inside. Like when I met the love of my life, she was the definition of an Uptown Girl. And this downtown daredevil was smitten. Years later though, she was fed up with my superstar shenanigans. She threatened to walk out that door. That’s when I had a premonition. I told her, I thought she was pregnant. And it turns out, she was. I promised right then to change my ways. Now, my whole world is all about being a good husband and a cool dad. And what’s cooler than showing up on my family’s favorite show? This downtown boy is about to turn things up.”

“I really turnt it up last time. That smackdown got my heart racing. Now, being here on TV Theme Night has taken me back to my beginnings. As a little lizard, I loved cartoons so much that I spent all my days drawing them. I got so good, I was offered a dream job at a huge animation studio. Yeah, the mouse was chasing this Lizard pretty hard. It was a great opportunity. And my dad begged me to take it. But deep down, I knew I wanted to be a performer. So, I put down my pencil and took the riskier road to stardom. And my dad was shook. But that lit the fuel to my fire to prove to him that I could pull it off. And when I eventually became one of the most recognizable reptiles on the planet, he was so proud. Now I might not draw animation, but I sure do draw in the crowds. And tonight, I’m singing a song from a cartoon classic. Let’s Scooby-Doo this thing.”

Week 5: “I can’t believe I fought my way out of a second smackdown!"
Producer: Um...Lizard? What songs do you sing into your shampoo bottle?
"I go full emo; I’m talking the anthem of troubled teens everywhere. Before I could even drive, I was living two lives. I got straight A's in school, but after school, I was running the streets with the bad crowd. I was messing up so much I saw the inside of a jail cell more than once. That last time, I took a long look in the mirror and realized the thug life just wasn’t for me. And from that moment on, I stayed in a different direction and cleaned up my act. But I never forgot those dark days and the wake-up call I desperately needed.”
