It's me No No, small robot you know, friend of Ule-es-es

I have two versions of that song on my computer. But must concur with Minder as being the best. Then perhaps The Office, Absolutely Fabulous, Happy Days, The A-Team (a few spoken words), Knight Rider (also spoken word) and presently Happy Tree Friends (gibberish lyrics).

Why? Dinner's an acceptable word the lyricist was obviously hungry.

Eh? I was AGREEING with you numpty. Hence the \O/ as in "hooray". Honestly!

Howard Goodall's Blackadder theme has been suitably adapted to reflect the period of each series.

Not sure if all versions have lyrics though.

FOG, I'M THE ONE WHO MADE THE BET
AND I KNOW WE'LL BE EXACTLY RIGHT ON TIIIIME

FOG IS MY NAME AND I COULD PLAY WITH MY LIFE IN MANY WAYS
THAT'S WHAT THEY SAAAYYY

HERE I AM - A RIGADON
I'M A TICO - D'MASCOTA
IT'S MY TURN - THE GENTLE TOUCH
A ROMY THEY LOVE ME SO MUCH

HEY! NOW THEY STORY MUST GO ON
'CAUSE A LOT OF TIME HAS GONE
WE MUST BE READY
TO GO AWAAYYY

80 DAYS AROUND THE WORLD
WE'LL FIND A POT OF GOLD
JUST SITTING WHERE THE RAINBOW'S ENDING
TIME - WE'LL FIGHT AGAINST THE TIME
AND WE'LL FLY ON THE WHITE WINGS OF THE WIND
80 DAYS AROUND THE WORLD
NO WE WON'T SAY A WORD
BEFORE THE SHIP IS REALLY BACK

ROUND, ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD
ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD
ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD
ROUND, ALL AROUND THE WORLD!

EXTENDED THEME TUNE LYRICS:

LOOK THERE'S A LION OVER THERE
LETS FORGET ABOUT OUR FEARS WE MUST BE READYYY
YOU RIGADON YOU HAVE TO SAVE ROMY'S LIFE
AS SOON AS DAYLIGHT WILL ARRIVE

TICO CAN BRING US THE LUCK
HE'LL FIND AROUND THE WORLD
ROMY NOW THAT YOUR WITH US
YOU'LL BE THE ANGELS OF THE TEAM

HEY! NOW THEY STORY MUST GO ON

Lovely you do realise by capitalising you're technically shouting this like a red faced tramp fighting with a lamp post.

It was a copy and paste with 2 minutes to spare before I had to leave for work where the internet Nazi's reign.

Quick must finish this diary as I think they may have found my secret hideaway.

Sensible policy when I took over my last post I got access to all of my predecessor's emails. Silly people really should have been way more careful....
It was social services after all.

ONE FOR ALL AND ALL FOR ONE,
MUSKERHOUNDS ARE ALWAYS READY.
ONE FOR ALL AND ALL FOR ONE,
HELPING EVERYBODY.
ONE FOR ALL AND ALL FOR ONE,
IT'S A PRETTY STORY
SHARING EVERYTHING THAT'S FUN,
THAT'S THE WAY TO BE.
DABA-DAB, DABA-DAB!
THEY CROSS THEIR HEARTS AND PRAY,
DABA-DAB, DABA-DAB!
THEY CROSS THEIR SWORDS NIGHT AND DAY,
DABA-DAB, DABA-DAB!
THEY HAVE A BEER AND SWEAR THEY'RE
FAITHFUL TO THE KING.

Cut and paste. Apologies for the shouting.

And:

[Lion-o] Thunder, thunder, thundercats, Ho!
Thundercats are on the move,
Thundercats are loose,
Feel the magic, hear the Roar,
Thundercats are loose,

Thunder, thunder, thunder, Thundercats!
Thunder, thunder, thunder, Thundercats!
Thunder, thunder, thunder, Thundercats!
Thunder, thunder, thunder, Thundercats! Thundercats!

Ah, the memeories...

Dashing and daring,
Courageous and caring,
Faithful and friendly,
With stories to share.
All through the forest,
They sing out in chorus,
Marching along,
As their song fills the air.

Gummi Bears!!
Bouncing here and there and everywhere.
High adventure that's beyond compare.
They are the Gummi Bears.

Magic and mystery,
Are part of their history,
Along with the secret,
Of gummiberry juice.
Their legend is growing,
They take pride in knowing,
They'll fight for what's right,
In whatever they do.

Gummi Bears!!
Bouncing here and there and everywhere.
High adventure that's beyond compare.
They are the Gummi Bears.
They are the Gummi Bears!!

Woke Up This Morning by the mighty 'bama 3, theme tune to The Sopranos - greatest theme music coupled with the greatest opening titles of all time. :)

I loved that remix of Every Breath You Take and The Art of Noise.

Has Hong Kong Fooey been mentioned?
