Hi All,

	For your collective amusement, a song (From the Muppet Movie)
by Kermit the Frog and Ralph the Dog...

I Hope That Something Better Comes Along
########################################
(As sung by Kermit the Frog and Ralph the Dog in 
The Muppet Movie

######
(Spoken)
R>	Evening, you look like you could use a drink
K>	Yeh, I'd like a grasshopper please
R>	Hey, can we have a grasshopper for the frog
K>	Ah, that's Kermit, Kermit the Frog
R>	Oh, Ralph, Ralph the dog

R>	Lemme guess, broken heart right?
K>	Yeh, does it show?
R>	Listen, when you've been tickling the ivories as long as I
	have, you've seen a broken heart for every drop of rain, a
	shattered dream for every falling star
K>	Exactly, she just walked out on me
R>	Ah, typical. That's why I live alone
K>	You do huh?
R>	You bet. I finish work, I go home, read a book, have a 
	couple of beers, take myself for a walk and go to bed
K>	Nice and simple
R>	Stay away from women, that's my motto
K>	But I can't
R>	Neither can I, that's my trouble

(Sings)
R>	You can't live with 'em
	You can't live without 'em
	There's something irresitable-ish about em
	We grin and bear it 'cause the nights are long
	I hope that something better comes along

(Spoken)
K>	I see what you mean

(Sings)
K>	It's no good complaining
	and pointless to holler
R>	If she's a beauty she'll get under your collar
K>	She made a monkey out of old King Kong
KR>	I hope that something better comes along

R>	Aaah - but what could be better
	Than a saucy Irish Setter
	When puppy love comes on strong
	Or a collie that's classy
	A laddie needs a lassie
	A lover and wife gives you a new leash on life

(Spoken)
K>	Ah - was that a new 'leash' on life?
R>	Oh yea, sorry 'bout that
	Two, three, four

(Sings)
K>	I don't mean to scare ya
	My friend but I bet ya
	Come father's day the litter bug's gonna get ya
R>	The urge is rightous but the face is wrong
KR>	I hope that something better comes along

K>	Still it's fun when they're fetching
	And agree to see an etching
	That you keep by your lily pad
	There is no solution
	It's a part of evolution
R>	The pitter patter of soles, the little feet of tadpoles

(Spoken)
K>	Ah - Ralph, tadpoles don't have feet
R>	Oh, sorry 'bout that
	Two, three, four

(Sings)
K>	There's no limitation
	To mixing and matching
R>	Some get an itching for a critter they've been scratching
	A skunk was badgered, the results were strong
KR>	I hope that something better
KR>	I hope that something better
KR>	I hope that something better comes along

crack's ya up huh?
