It's Stuck!

You take the good, you take the bad.
You take 'em both and there you have
The facts of life. The facts of life.
There's a time you gotta ? ? ?
You're growin' now, you know about
The facts of life. The facts of life.
When the world can never seem
To be living up to your dream
Then suddenly you're finding out
The facts of life are all about you.
You-u-u-u-u...................

You ever get old TV show songs stuck in your head? Usually mine is The Love Boat. Ha! Lately, though, it's The Facts of Life. I was completely entertained the other day when I was singing it and Michael joined right in. He knew the whole thing (except I'm not sure if he even knows the ? ? ? words) and even remembered that one of the characters from The Facts of Life was Trudy. He told me he thought the blonde girl was hot back then. Yep, that would be Blaire. Anyway, I'm just getting a laugh out of it today. I can't get it out of my head and Michael told me to stop singing it this afternoon because it was stuck in his head this morning and he successfully got it out. Maybe I'll help him out with a new song...

Love, exciting and new
Come aboard. We're expecting you.
The Love Boat soon will be making another run.
The Love Boat promises something for everyone.
Set a course for adventure. Your mind on a new romance...

Okay, I could put the whole thing here so that one day 20 years down the line I can laugh about it and sing it all the way through. But you know what? I'm not worried about forgetting it. I just checked Wikipedia and the last time The Love Boat was on was 20 YEARS AGO! Holy cow! That's hard to believe. I'm sure I'll be 75 and still remember the words. I have no choice. Even if I didn't want to, they are good and stuck.
