The Lyrics
Script writers usually give a cliffhanger or something that makes you want to tune in for the next episode. Shows from soap operas to "Batman" presented a taste or little bit of what was going to happen, hoping you would see the program! BTW, this has nothing whatsoever to do with the Sylvester Stallone movie of the same name. Also, the references to bells and chimes refer to certain sound effects played at the end of certain programs.
Your show is like a woven braid, blending several threads
Addin’ various challenges, messin’ with my head
You’re the best kind of writer, to keep us tuned from day to day
A hard to beat system, and I know that’s why you plan to stay
With a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Give a hint of what we’ll see
Oh a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger
Will you tell us more? I don’t know!
Your show really helps us escape much of the daily grind
And we can hardly wait to see just what we’ll find
You’re a good type of writer so that we just can’t wait to see
The very next episode, oh do you know when will that be??
You’re a good type of writer so that we just can’t wait to see
The very next episode, oh do you know when will that be??
It’s a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Just a little more to see
With a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Helps us live some fantasy!
It’s a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Just a little more to see
It’s a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Just a little more to see
It’s a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Just a little more to see
It’s a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Cliffhanger!
Addin’ various challenges, messin’ with my head
You’re the best kind of writer, to keep us tuned from day to day
A hard to beat system, and I know that’s why you plan to stay
With a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Give a hint of what we’ll see
Oh a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger
Will you tell us more? I don’t know!
Your show really helps us escape much of the daily grind
And we can hardly wait to see just what we’ll find
You’re a good type of writer so that we just can’t wait to see
The very next episode, oh do you know when will that be??
You’re a good type of writer so that we just can’t wait to see
The very next episode, oh do you know when will that be??
It’s a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Just a little more to see
With a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Helps us live some fantasy!
It’s a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Just a little more to see
It’s a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Just a little more to see
It’s a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Just a little more to see
It’s a cliffhanger, chime banger, bell clanger,
Cliffhanger!

exactly the way "Roseanne" ended now, seeing as the last episode ended with her about to go in for knee surgery and there will be no resolution, what with it being axed and all... F ABC! 5s
