My submission is the theme from Laverne & Shirley, a show I loved so much that, I shit you not, a childhood friend and I performed the theme for a school talent show when we were in third grade. And Mama Shakes even stitched an L (for Liss/Laverne) onto my blouse for the occasion!
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight:
Schlameel! Schlamazel! Hasenpfeffer Incorporated!
We're gonna do it!
Give us any chance, we'll take it.
Give us any rule, we'll break it.
We're gonna make our dreams come true—
Doin' it our way!
Nothin's gonna turn us back now.
Straight ahead and on the track now.
We're gonna make our dreams come true—
Doin' it our way!
There is nothing we won't try;
Never heard the word "impossible."
This time there's no stopping us—
We're gonna do it!
On your mark, get set, and go now.
Got a dream and we just know now,
We're gonna make that dream come true.
And we'll do it our way, yes, our way,
Make all our dreams come true,
And we'll do it our way, yes, our way,
Make all our dreams come true—
For me and you.
