Opening theme song lyrics

Joanne
Oh yeah, yeah
Shally-a-dupitty-dupitt-a-dupitt
Oh yeah.

Remember life is a jokebook, nothin' but a jokebook.
Even though the joke is on you.

And if you start feeling old, there's only one way to go.
Only one thing you can do.

You gotta open up your jokebook.
Writing up your out-book.
Things aren't as bad as you think.

Your going laugh, shake, give your smile a break, and put a little joke in your life.

Oh yeah, put a little joke in your life.

Chapadey-push-some-jo-and-some-ke
in your life!

Ha, ha, ha!
