Popular Lyrics
Cheers
Show Full Lyrics
(Song: “Where Everybody Knows Your Name”). Making your way in the world today takes everything you’ve got. Taking a break from all your worries, sure would help a lot. Wouldn’t you like to get away?
Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name, and they’re always glad you came. You wanna be where you can see, our troubles are all the same. You wanna be where everybody knows your name.
The Golden Girls
Show Full Lyrics
(Song: “Thank You for Being a Friend”). Thank you for being a friend. Traveled down the road and back again. Your heart is true, you’re a pal and a confidant.
And if you threw a party, invited everyone you knew. You would see the biggest gift would be from me and the card attached would say, thank you for being a friend!
Growing Pains
Show Full Lyrics
(Song: “As Long as We Got Each Other”). Show me that smile again. (Ooh show me that smile). Don’t waste another minute on your cryin’. We’re nowhere near the end (nowhere near). The best is ready to begin.
As long as we got each other, we got the silver line. As long as we got each other, it’s gonna be just fine. (Ooh-oh-oh). We’re gonna be just fine!
MacGyver

(Instrumental Theme) Composed by Randy Edelman. This theme is the ultimate 80s action synth track. With its driving percussion and soaring electronic melody, it perfectly matched the high-stakes ingenuity of Angus MacGyver.
DuckTales

Life is like a hurricane here in Duckburg. Racecars, lasers, aeroplanes, it’s a duck-blur! Might solve a mystery, or rewrite history!
DuckTales! Woo-hoo! Every day they’re out there making DuckTales! Woo-hoo! Tales of derring-do, bad and good luck tales! D-d-d-danger! Watch behind you! There’s a stranger out to find you! DuckTales! Woo-hoo!
Miami Vice

Knight Rider
Show Details
(Music: Composed by Stu Phillips). (Spoken Intro): Knight Rider. A shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a man who does not exist. Michael Knight, a young loner on a crusade to champion the cause of the innocent, the helpless, the powerless, in a world of criminals who operate above the law.
Who’s the Boss?
Show Full Lyrics
(Song: “Brand New Life”). There’s a brand new life around the bend. And it’s for you and me to share. We’re gonna find it on the rainbow’s end, and I’m gonna be there.
So if you’re feeling down and out, don’t you worry. We’re gonna make it in a hurry. Brand new life! Brand new life! Brand new life!
Full House
Show Full Lyrics
(Song: “Everywhere You Look”). Whatever happened to predictability? The milkman, the paperboy, evening TV. You miss your old familiar friends, waiting just around the bend.
Everywhere you look, everywhere you go. There’s a heart (there’s a heart), a hand to hold onto. Everywhere you look, everywhere you go. There’s a place, of somebody who needs you. Everywhere you look!
The A-Team
Show Details
(Music: Composed by Mike Post). (Spoken Intro): In 1972, a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn’t commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Los Angeles underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune.
Family Ties
Show Full Lyrics
(Song: “Without Us”). I bet we been together for a million years, and I bet we’ll be together for a million more. It’s like I started breathing on the night we met, and I haven’t taken a breath since you walked through my door.
Sha-la-la-la. What would we do baby, without us? What would we do baby, without us?
The Wonder Years
Show Full Lyrics
(Song: “With a Little Help from My Friends” – Joe Cocker). What would you think if I sang out of tune? Would you stand up and walk out on me? Lend me your ears and I’ll sing you a song, and I’ll try not to sing out of key.
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends. Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends. Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends.
