My head enjoys abuse
The theme song to the sitcom "One Day at a Time," starring Bonnie Franklin, Mackenzie Phillips, and Valerie Bertinell, contains the lyrics, "So while you're here, enjoy the view / Keep on doing what you do/ Hold on tight, we'll muddle through / One day at a time." At least, I'm pretty sure those are the lyrics.
I thought I'd share that when I was a kid watching this sitcom, I thought the line was, "So while your head enjoys abuse/Keep on doing what you do." I still think of that line every time I sing the theme song to "One Day at a Time"--which is, you guessed it, frighteningly often.

Sing along, everybody!
This is it. (This is it.)
This is life, the one you get so go and have a ball.
This is it. (This is it.)
Straight ahead and rest assured you can't be sure at all.
So while you're here enjoy the view.
Keep on doing what you do
So hold on tight we’ll muddle through
One day at a time, (One day at a time.)
So up on your feet. (Up on your feet)
Somewhere there's music playing.
Don't you worry none we'll just take it like it comes.
One day at a time, (One day at a time.) (4X)
Remember when theme songs were written specifically for the show?
Remember when theme songs MENTIONED THE NAME OF THE SHOW?
Wow, Sarah, that theme song trundles through my head on a regular basis, too. What does that mean, I wonder? Anything?
Snyder scared me.
I thought it was "rest assured you will get through it all"! That is MUCH more consoling than "you can't be sure at all."
I think this theme song is abusing my head.
And I agree about Snyder. In retrospect, didn't he seem kind of molest-y?
Yeah. I mean, why was the weird guy with the wrench always around?
Now I have the theme music from Too Close for Comfort in my head ...
Have you guys ever visited Kiss This Guy? http://www.kissthisguy.com/
Some entries are funnier than others, but overall the Archive of Misheard Lyrics is hilarious.
Okay, so now I'm looking at it and most of them aren't that funny... BUT! Name THIS famous tune!
Michelle my bell,
some day monkey play piano song,
play piano song.
I've seen a book version of that! I think... or maybe it was called "'Scuse Me While I Kiss This Guy."
Ha! "Michelle, ma belle... sont les mots qui vont tres bien ensemble"?
