Paroles de Mr. Dead & Mrs. Free

In the second series they almost kissed
But in the third it all went a bit doolally
In the fourth year they brought it a new director
Who was prone to flights of fancy

In the fifth year they tried to steady the ship
The old writers were brought in with fatter wage slips
But the innocence was gone and by the time they kissed
Everyone knew there was never gonna be no series six

But series one would always be a classic

By the time they kissed
Everyone had switched over channels
Leaving the imaginary lovers entangled
And a show that had long been canceled

But their love was too strong to be written off
By some writer's rule of thumb
And away from his imaginings they were now free
To live their lives on their own

No more budget constraints could hold back their characters
In favour of CGI and two bit actors
No disparaging plot lines to twist anymore
Just to satisfy the committee and their hunger for the ratings war They could let their love unravel

By the time they kissed
Everyone had switched over channels
