Did you know the Morning Edition theme song has lyrics?!! Well, it does and here they are for your sing-a-long pleasure! — Tanya

The Morning Edition Theme

Oh I hate to get up in the morning

Please don’t wake me up this morning

Let me stay in bed … and … sleep (I don’t like to daydream)

****

The world can turn without me today

And if you wake me up I can say

That we will not be friends… for… long

****

Remember when… we used to sleep forever?

Dreams… floating as light as feathers

When… will those delightful dreams

Come back again?

Tell me when!!!

****

For crying out loud, please would you shut up

No news, no features, I’ve had enough …

But, say, who wrote your great … theme … song???
