Cherish That Family Smile

Wikisimpsons - The Simpsons Wiki
Revision as of 04:16, June 6, 2012 by 86.177.180.64 (talk) (Lyrics)

"Cherish That Family Smile" is the theme song of the TV show Thicker than Waters.

Lyrics

Homer:Cherish that family smile,
Picket-fence days don't last forever,
The future is coming up,
Mom and Dad and kids are precious.
Yeah, cherish that da da dum dee
Dim dim dim dim dim da dum
Picket fence days something something
Something days are something
Mum and DAD and kids are something.
(sOBS)
My new favriote song
Sorry, don't fear the reaper *sobs*

Behind the Laughter

The lyrics were written by Joel H. Cohen and the music by Alf Clausen.

"Cherish That Family Smile" is an obvious parody of "As Long as We've Got Each Other", the theme song of the sitcom Growing Pains: Thicker than Waters is itself a parody of Growing Pains, and the first line of "As Long as We've Got Each Other" is "Show me that smile again".

During the episode "Homer the Father", "Cherish That Family Smile" is sung three times: Twice during the episode and once by Homer Simpson over the episode's closing credits. Instrumental phrases from the song are also heard several times during the episode.
