Theme song from Maude.

I grew up watching Golden Girls with my mom, but when I was maybe 14 I started watching the reruns of Maude on Nick at Nite.  It’s Maude that made me really love Bea Arthur.

Lady Godiva was a freedom rider,
she didn’t care if the whole world looked.
Joan of Arc, with the Lord to guide her,
she was a sister who really cooked.
Isadora was the first bra burner,
Ain’t ya glad she showed up?
And when the country was falling apart
Betsy Ross got it all sewed up!
And then there’s Maude!
And then there’s Maude.
And then there’s Maude!
And then there’s Maude.
And then there’s Maude!
And then there’s Maude.
And then there’s… that uncompromisin’, enterprisin’ anything but traquilizin’ -
Right on Maude!!!

As soon as I read this, I thought, “Oh, poor Scott!”
