The Bugs Bunny Show Lyrics
Original Opening Theme
Behind the Show: Easy Breakdown
The Bugs Bunny Show is a classic cartoon that stayed on television for 40 years. Most of the time, the famous music was written by Mack David and Jerry Livingston. For a short time in the mid 80s, Steve Zuckerman took over as the music writer. The show was a huge hit, running for 27 seasons with nearly 700 episodes!
The song most people remember is called Overture, but for one year in 1984, they used a different song called It’s Cartoon Gold. The show featured all the favorite characters like Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Porky Pig. It was led by world famous animators like Chuck Jones and Friz Freleng, who made sure the show was funny for both kids and adults.
The lyrics talk about getting ready for a big performance, with curtains and lights opening up for a night of nights. Because it was so well made, people still love watching Bugs Bunny and his friends today just as much as they did when it first started in 1960.
