Do you know all the words to "The Patty Duke Show" theme? I know I do. But what about those classic TV-dial ditties that don't have any words? I offer you the following lyrics as a quick solution:
I DREAM OF JEANNIE
Jeannie, found in the sand
By Tony, astronaut man
The censors, her navel they did ban
(Bump badum-badump)
Skin like fine alabaster
Her blink, it courts disaster
He calls, she says "Yes, Master, dear"
Sometimes, Jeannie is small but
O-ther times not at all
Often, a cute puff of smoke is all she is
(By the way, and)
Oh yes, didn't we mention
All that sexual tension
Plus a certain affection true
Ponytail on her head
She sleeps alone in her bed
Until the day she and Nelson wed!
(Bump badum-badump!)
FLIPPER
And you know Flipper, he's not a fish
He's warm-blooded
He never fails
He hasn't got scales
And you know Flipper, hasn't got gills
He's a mammal
Just like Mark Hamill
And Socrates
And you know Flipper
He's not a porpoise
He's never been
Cause he's a dolphin
And we know dolphins
They have a snout that is beaklike
And that's what we like
On our TV
THE MARY TYLER MOORE SHOW
Seen this one a hundred times or more
You would think I'd tire of it
By now it should be all quite a bore
But I still have my eyes glued to it
I can't turn away, I just stare
And sit through it
I can't turn myself away from Mary
Sat through this so many times it's scary
I've got the whole thing memorized
I've got the whole thing memorized
(toss hat)
