Subject: 70's TV Theme Song Lyrics Game

Written By: eightiesfan on 11/03/04 at 8:57 am

I borrowed this idea from Lillbrown's song lyrics games.  The object is pretty much the same, only this time it involves a line from a classic tv show of the 70's - the person who guesses it correctly can then put a lyric in there.  I'll start with an easy one:

"Hello world, here's a song that we're singing.  Come on get happy!"
