Everybody remembers The Brady Bunch, right? Well how many of you remember The Brady Kids, an animated cartoon with just the Brady kids plus some assorted animals. It was really a hokey show and the only reason that I watched it was because of the songs at the end that they would sing. So here's the trivia question: What were the words to the theme songs for both of these Brady shows?
zarth@drutx.UUCP (CovartDL) (11/08/84)
These are the words to the theme song as best I remember:
Here's the story of a lovely lady,
who was bring up three very lovely girls.
All of them had hair of gold like thier mother
the youngest one in curls.
Here's the story of a man named Brady,
who was busy with three boys of his own.
*** All of them enjoyed their life together ***
yet they were all alone.
'till the one day when this lady met this fellow,
and they knew it was much more than a hunch.
That this crew must somehow form a family
thats the way we all became the Brady Bunch.
The Brady Bunch, the Brady Bunch,
thats the way we alll became the Brady Bunch.
*** I am not very confident of this line ***
I am not sure wether it goes paragraph 1 then 2 or 2 then 1. I think I have
it in the right order though I won't gaurentee the words.

Oh, what the heck. > From: zarth@drutx.UUCP (CovartDL) > *** All of them enjoyed their life together *** It was "They were four men living all together". While I'm up, might as well post the Brady Kids lyrics. Here's our sisters, now meet our brothers, Greg's a leader and a good man for the job, There's another boy by the name of Peter, The youngest one is Bob. Meet our sisters, they're all quite pretty, First there's Marcia with her eyes a sparklin' blue, Then there's Jan the middle one who's really groovy, And sister Cindy too. Let's get set now for action and adventure, As we see things we never saw before, We'll meet Mop-Top (*) and Ping and Pong the pandas, And Marlon who makes more tricks by the ball (???) The Brady Kids, the Brady Kids, Here's the world of your friends the Brady Kids. (*) For some reason, that doesn't sound right. In the regular show, the dog's name was Tiger. I'm not sure but wasn't the Archies' dog named Mop-Top? (No, I just remembered, the Archies' dog was named Hot Dog.) MORE TRIVIA: If you're really moby, or can admit to watching these shows (after all, we were all young once), you can quote the lyrics to: Everything's Archie Sabrina the Teenage Witch Groovy Goolies -- Baby tie your hair back in a long white bow ... Meet me in the field, behind the dynamo ... Greg Skinner (gregbo) {allegra,cbosgd,ihnp4}!houxm!gregbo

Here's the story of a lovely lady
who was bringing up three very lovely girls
All of them had hair of gold, like their mother,
the youngest one in curls
Here's the story of a man named Brady,
who was busy with three boys of his own
They were four men, living all together,
but they were all alone...
Till the one day when the lady met this fellow,
and they knew that it was much more than a hunch,
that this group must somehow form a family...
That's the way we all became the Brady Bunch
The Brady Bunch, The Brady Bunch,
That's the way we all became the Brady Bunch!

Zarth Arn's "Brady Bunch" lyrics were all correct except for the line he
said he wasn't sure about. The second verse is
Here's the story of a man named Brady
Who was busy with three boys of his own.
They were four men living all together,
Yet they were all alone.

I don't know the Brady Kids theme, but here's the Brady Bunch theme: It's the story of a lovely lady who was bringing up three very lovely girls all of them had hair of gold, like their mother, the youngest one in curls. It's the story of a man named Brady who was busy with three boys of his own They were four men living all together yet they were all alone. Till the one day when the lady met this fellow and they knew that it was much more than a hunch that this group must somehow form a family that's the way they* all became the Brady Bunch The Brady Bunch, The Brady Bunch That's the way they* became the Brady Bunch. *In later seasons, when the kids sang the theme, the "they" was "we."

*** YOUR MESSAGE *** The best version of the Brady Bunch theme is on the Weird Al Yankovic album that also includes "Eat It" and "King of Suede." It's done to the tune of "The Safety Dance" by Men Without Talent. -- Mark A. ...uw-beaver!ssc-vax!adolph "Computers are like preppies: they just boil around in their own way and you have to do things their way or they blow you off."

Of course, we're all aware that the lyrics to "The Brady Bunch" can be sung to the tune of "The Safety Dance." Thanks to Wierd Al Yankovic for demonstrating that if you take two dumb songs and mix them together you get another dumb song. -paul asente Give it up--give it up Television's takin' its toll. Give it up--give it up Gimme the remote control. I've been nice--I've been good Please don't do this to me. Turn it off--turn it off I don't want to have to see The Brady Bunch! Not The Brady Bunch!

> What is the title of Weird Al Yankovic's album? > My group has been looking for the words to Eat It for some time. > Thanks for the help -- Weird Al has two LP's out. The first is called "Weird Al in 3-D" or something like that. The second one is called simply "Weird Al". The first has the parodies of Beat It, The Safety Dance, Our Love's in Jeapordy, King of Pain, and The Eye of the Tiger. The second one parodies Micky, I Love Rock and Roll, My Sharona, Stop Dragging My Heart Around, and Another One Bites the Dust. Have fun. Jeff Okamoto okamoto%ucbvax@Berkeley.ARPA ucbvax!okamoto
