Thursday Theme Song - It Might As Well Be Spring

2011-03-24T05:48:00.000-07:00

Lyrics by: Oscar Hammerstein II
 Music by: Richard Rodgers
From the Film: State Fair 1945

I'm as restless as a willow in a windstorm,

I'm as jumpy as a puppet on a string.

I'd say that I had spring fever,
But I know it isn't spring

I haven't seen a crocus or a rosebud

Or a robin on the wing.

But I feel so gay,
In a melancholy way,

That it might as well be spring,

It might as well be spring.

Thursday Theme Song - The Orange and the Green

2011-03-10T05:52:00.000-08:00

The Orange and the Green
Artist: The Irish Rovers
Sung by: Jimmy Ferguson

Oh it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seen
My father he was orange and my mother she was green

Oh my father was an Ulsterman, proud Protestant was he
My mother was a Catholic girl, from County Cork was she
They were married in two churches, lived happily enough

Until the day that I was born and things got rather tough

Oh it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seen
My father he was orange and my mother she was green

Now my parents never could agree about my type of school

My learning was all done at home,

that's why I'm such a fool

They both passed on, god rest them,

but left me caught between

That awful color problem of the orange and the green

Yes it is the biggest mix-up that you have ever seen
My father he was orange and my mother she was green
