a parody of "Spider-Man Theme Song " by Theme Songs
“Animals-Man” by The Bilderbergers is an animated music video parody of the classic Spider-Man theme song about a strange superhero who has far too many animal powers. While chasing criminals, Animals-Man runs into a number of problems while maintaining control of a single power. It eventually spills over into his normal life. The silly music video was produced by Josh Poole of Above Average and animated by Dan Markowitz.

The Nonsensical Lyrics: [kids] Hurray! Hurrah!
[Paul] And what's the secret password? [kids] Scotty-Wotty Doo-Doo, Scotty-Wotty Doo-Doo, Scotty Wotty Doo-Doo Paul! Why They're Nonsensical: How much of a 'secret' can this nonsensical password be if 1) all those kids say it out loud and 2) It is (or, was) heard at the start of every segment of the show? Even though Paul Winchell nods and gestures in approval when the kids say it.

Lyrics Pronunciation:
"One Day At A Time"
The Lyrics: So hold on tight and we'll muddle through, one day at a time
Why: The singer sings the words "muddle through" as "muttle to". So she sounds my like a Brooklynite even though the series takes place in Indianapolis.
