Super Armand

Tall and handsome was super Armand
Younger days spent in a music boyband
Older he graduated to a heavy rock band
With the stage name of “Collapsin’ Grandstand”

Last summer Armand took a cruise trip to Greenland
Because that was his deep rooted fatherland
Then a hop a skip and a jump over to Iceland 
Tagging on a visit to his sweet motherland

He thought this’d be much better than Disneyland 
For here his music was in most popular demand
Confirmed in all papers at any newsstand
Heard it many a time and it was easy to understand 

Fans cheered and danced at the band’s command 
Everyone in attendance had a time that’s grand
Always had a bigger crowd than planned  
All felt like they had reached the Holy Land    

Never accused of being underhand or bland
Every night in the middle of Armand’s handstand
The crowd wildly cheered for “Collapsin’ Grandstand”
Too hilarious to see how would jump to attention every stagehand
