Ah, yes, The Fall Guy... What a load of old bollocks that was. :)

The other greatest ever theme tune of all time, of course, was for Jamie And The Magic Torch. When I conducted a random poll of myself 100 times, it came in 2nd. QED...

Good call the greatets ever mastrubation themed glam rock kids toon ever.

Batman

The Batman theme-tune was later sang by The Jam and I have it by them on my iPod, what a tune. Despite being amazed in the cinema with the sublime quality of The Dark Knight, I was dissapointed that theme-tune didn't feature at any point in the show.
Chas and Dave have done some great theme-tunes in their time, such as In Sickness And In Health (series 1 theme tune and the series 2 onwards theme-tune). Another great theme-tune produced by Chas and Dave was Big Break- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wv7qY1TVnAY

And how can you forget One Foot in the Grave.
If animal noises count as lyrics, then I'd also go for the theme-tune to Two In Clover.

Why? Why? And double Why?!

Is it weird that I had a serious thing for Rosemary when I was a kid?

Wave

Stella induced haze and still giggling at the thought of the red faced tramp and the lamppost.

"Just the good ol' boys,
Never meanin' no harm,
Beats all you've ever saw, been in trouble with the law since the day they was born.

Straight'nin' the curve,
Flat'nin' the hills.
Someday the moutain might get 'em, but the law never will.

Makin' their way,
The only way they know how,
That's just a little bit more than the law will allow.

Just good ol' boys,
Wouldn't change if they could,
Fightin' the system like a true modern day Robin Hood.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaa!"

and

"Meet the gang 'cause the boys are here —
The boys to entertain you.
With music and laughter to send you on your way —
We're raising the rafters with a hey-hey-hey!
With songs and sketches and comedy too —
So come with us and you won't feel blue!

So meet the gang 'cause the boys are here —
The boys to entertain you!
B-O-Y-S — boys to entertain you"

Cowboys! How I forgot this one, I don't know.

If a job's worth doing,
It's worth doing wrong.
With a nail too short,
And a screw too long.

Cowboys.
You can't trust the cowboys.

etc.

Auf Weidershen Pet - That's Living Alright.

My uncle has worked with the guy who sung that. My mum loves him (well his voice).

Joe Fagin.

He managed Liverpool to a European cup victory as well.

Come to think of it, it might not be the same guy
:)

Yeah, didn't he send little kids out pick-pocketing too?
