Friends TV Show
Series Description The Friends TV show was a 30
minute comedy series on NBC about six friends in
their twenties living in New York city. The main
plotlines of the episodes covered issues
important to young adults including dating,
building careers, and relationships. Later in the
series, issues like marriage and having children
became the focus. The challenges of adulthood
versus the desire to remain footloose and fancy
free also made the stories interesting. Despite
the challenges of love and career, they all still
managed to stay Friends!

Lyrics

• VERSE 1
• 1. So no one told you life was gonna be this way
  four claps
• 2. Your job's a joke, you're broke, your love
  life's D.O.A.
• 3. It's like you're always stuck in second gear
• 4. When it hasn't been your day, your week, your
  month, or even your year, but...
•  
• CHORUS
• 5. I'll be there for you
• 6. (When the rain starts to pour)
• 5. I'll be there for you
• 7. (Like I've been there before)
• 5. I'll be there for you
• 8. ('Cause you're there for me too)

Phonics Phun vs Fonics Fun

•  
• From the diary of a Pre-School Teacher
• My five-year old students are learning to read.
  Yesterday one of them pointed at a picture in a
  zoo book and said,
• "Look at this! It's a frickin' elephant!"I took
  a deep breath, then asked ... "What did you call
  it?""It's a frickin' elephant! It says so on
  the picture!" And so it does...
• " A f r i c a n Elephant "
• Hooked on phonics! Isn't it wonderful?
