(sung to the tune of "My Favorite Things")
Holes in the ozone and nuclear winters
Crack houses shootings and bodies in dumpsters
Pesticide poisoning or so it seems
These are a few of life's scariest things
Alcoholism and manic depression
Eating disorders orgasmic obsession
Over-involvement in children's affairs
Oprah, Geraldo and Donahue care...
...when I'm watching "thirtysomething"
and I'm feeling swell
I simply remember these horrible things
and then my mood's shot to hell...
Terrorist bombings and drought-ridden farmlands
TV Evangelists, Rambo and oat bran
Shirley McLean and the greenhouse effect
God only knows how we try to forget
...when I'm watching "thirtysomething"
and I'm feeling swell
I simply remember these horrible things
and then my mood's shot TO HELL...
