what-about wednesdays

-"the raccoons"-

i must admit that this show was one of my favourite shows back in the day. back in the day when i played and played all day long- not a worry in the world. back in the day when stripes and polka dots were considered a perfect match. back in the day when i believed that ninja turtles lived in the sewers. back in the day... back in the day. those were good days. i miss those days. i miss "the raccoons". i miss being a kid. but i love that those "back in the day" moments have brought me to where i am today, and maybe... just maybe some of those moments have helped me become who i am now? well, maybe not the ninja turtles. but definitely "the raccoons".

"run with us"- "the raccoons" themesong:

when darkness falls, leaving shadows in the night,

don't be afraid, wipe that fear from your eyes.

if a desperate love keeps on driving you wrong,

don't be afraid, you're not alone . . .

[chorus:]

you can run with us! we've got everything you need . . .

run with us! we are free!

come with us! i see passion in your eyes . . .

run with us!

when the cold wind blows, turn your collar to the cold.

don't be ashamed, if you need someone to hold.

if you're sinking in quicksand, and it's dragging you down,

and you feel you're going under, we'll be around!

[chorus]

when you're behind closed doors, all alone, by yourself,

and you're longing inside to be somebody else;

you pick up the telephone, and there's no one on the line.

don't be afraid; 'cause there's still time
