3. Greeeeeeeen acres is the place to be!
Farm livin' is the life for me
Land spreadin' out so far and wide
Leave Manhattan, just give me that countryside

New York is where I'd rahhther stay
I get alergic smelling hay
I just adore a plant house view
Dahhling I love you but give me Park Avenue

etc. etc. etc.

4. Lord...not again--
The Looooove Boat,
soon we'll be making another run.

The Love Boat
promise something for everyone.

Set a course for adventure
your mind on a new romance.

And love,
it won't hurt anymore,
it's an open smile
on a friendly shore...

And when I sing it *out loud*...well, there's another kettle of deep-sea fish.

5. The theme from "The Land of the Lost"
Marshall, Will, and Holly on a routine expedition
Met the greatest earthquake ever known.
High on the rapids it struck their tiny raft.
And plunged them down a thousand feet below.
To the Land of the Lost.


Also find myself singing the theme song to Red Dwarf a lot also!:


It's cold outside, there's no kind of atmosphere.
I'm all alone, more or less.
Let me fly, far away from here.
Fun, fun, fun in the sun, sun, sun.

I want to lie shipwrecked and comotose,
Drinking fresh mango juice,
Goldfish shoals nibbling at my toes.
Fun, fun, fun in the sun, sun, sun
Fun, fun, fun in the sun, sun, sun.

6. We've got a gorilla for sale
Magilla Gorilla for sale.
Won't you buy him,
Take him home and try him,
Gorilla for sale.

Don't you want a little gorilla you can call your own,
A gorilla who'll be with ya when you're all alone?

Spoken: How much is that gorilla in the window?

Take our advice,
At any price,
A gorilla like Magilla is mighty nice.
Gorilla, Magilla Gorilla for sale.

8. But They're Cousins!!
Meet Cathy, who's lived most everywhere,
From Zanzibar to Barclay Square.
But Patty's only seen the sight.
A girl can see from Brooklyn Heights --
What a crazy pair!

But they're cousins,
Identical cousins all the way.
One pair of matching bookends,
Different as night and day.

Where Cathy adores a minuet,
The Ballet Russes, and crepe suzette,
Our Patty loves to rock and roll,
A hot dog makes her lose control --
What a wild duet!

Still, they're cousins,
Identical cousins and you'll find,
They laugh alike, they walk alike,
At times they even talk alike --

You can lose your mind,
When cousins are two of a kind.

DAMN YOU, NIK @ NITE!!!!

13. Addams Family
especially this time of year.

Others:

Gilligan's Island
Petticoat Junction
Beverly Hillbillies
Mary Tyler Moore
All in the Family
Plus a lot of instrumental ones

The 60s and 70s were the golden age of sitcom themes, I think.
