I saw this! And I'm insanely happy about it. Seriously, I loved Bill (Robert Culp) soooooo much, especially when he became addicted to dog biscuits. Then I had a leetle crush on Ralph, just because he was so sweet and unassuming. And all those blond curls. *g*
My childhood will never really go away, will it.
It will haunt the world forever. Fortunately, some of it's pretty damn fun.
I'm walking on air, I never thought I could feel so freeeeeeee Flying away on a wing and prayer Who Could It Beeeeee? Believe it or not it's just meeeeeeeee
I had to do it. I did. And now, because you are so evil - I have this song combining with your other evil song...and surprisingly it works.
Also, I'm sure it won't surprise you to know that I adored this show. I did. It was one of the first cancellations that hurt. Now, all I need is "SuperFuzz" on DVD and my life is complete.
I bet we've been together for a million years And I bet we'll be together for a million more Oh, it's like I started breathing on the night we kissed And I can't remember what I ever did before
What would we do, baby, without us? What would we do, baby, without us? And there ain't no nothing we can't love each other thrrrooooughh-hoo! What would do, baby, without uuuu-uuu-uuuus? Sha la la la....
I used to watch that pictures-morphing-from-hippies-to-family opening credits sequence in rapt fascination. I totally shipped Steven and Elyse during the credits, even while part of me cringed at the cheesey duet. I didn't give two figs about their marriage during the episodes.
I can't do all of the lyrics to the verses of Diff'rent Strokes, but I've always loved the opening lines:
A man is born, he's a man of means Then along come two, they got nothin' but their jeans
::sob:: Little Willis and Arnold, they got nothin' but their jeans. Liz, I know you feel me on this one!
A man is born, he's a man of means Then along come two, they got nothin' but their jeans
Well the world don't move to the beat of just one drum what might be right for you may not be right for some a man is born, he's a man of means then along come two, they got nothing but their jeans but they got diff'rent strokes it takes diff'rent strokes it takes diff'rent strokes to move the world
Everybody's got a special kind of story everybody finds a way to shine It don't matter that you got not a lot, so what they'll have theirs and you'll have yours and I'll have mine
And together we'll be fine....
'cuz it takes diff'rent strokes it takes diff'rent strokes it takes diff'rent strokes to move the world! (MMMM!)
Here we are face to face a couple of shooting stars (Though perhaps it's silver spoons as that would make more sense. My memory makes no sense, it just makes alliterations.) Hoping to find We're two of a kind Together We're gonna find our way.

You take 'em both and then you have
The Facts of Life, The Facts of Life!
There's a time you've gotta go
To show you're growin' so now you know
The Facts of Life, The Facts of Life!
When the world never seems
To live up to your dreams
Then suddenly you're finding out
The facts of life are all about you, you!
It takes a lot to get 'em right
When you're learnin' The Facts of Life, The Facts of Life!
The Facts of Life!
