'Weird Al' Sang New TV Theme Songs On The Emmys, And It Got Weird

"Weird Al" made a rare Emmys appearance on Monday night, and performed spoofs of theme songs from nominated shows including "Mad Men," "Scandal," "Homeland" and "Game of Thrones." George RR Martin pecked away on a typewriter and the audience was kind of into it. It went a little something like this.

Here are all the lyrics from the song, courtesy of "Late Night With Seth Meyers."

Mad Men, Mad Men

Watch these ad men

Do their thinking

While they're stinking drunk...

Jon Hamm's never

Won an Emmy

Oh, who cares he's

Still Jon Freaking Hamm

Mad Men!

Her lip is quivering

Quiver, quiver... quiver, quiver

It's not because she's cold

It's because she loves

The president

Remember that guy?

He was in Ghost

Scandal!

Homeland.

Standing in a maze

Making out with terrorists.

Beautiful woman.

Ugly crying.

Inigo Montoya grew a beard.

Homeland!

(Hey! Hey!)

It's Modern Family!

(Hey! Hey!)

Hot babe with old dude!

(Hey! Hey!)

Couple of gay guys!

(Hey! Hey!)

That's why it's modern fam...'ly!

Here comes

Dragons galore

And some boobs

Okay

To be fair, there's way more boobs

If you

Miss a big scene

Watch it back

(Watch it over, watch it over, watch it over)

Hope you

Paid attention

To the map

(You can pause that, you can pause that, you can pause that)

Don't get

Too attached to

A certain guy

(Have a backup, have a backup, have a backup)

He might

Drink some poisoned wine

(That's a spoiler, that's a spoiler, that's a spoiler!)

So type, George

Type as fast as you can

We need more scripts

Type, George

Fast as arrows can fly

We need more scripts

(Write them faster, write them faster, write them faster)

Write them faster, write them faster, write them faster, write them faster

Valar morghulis!
