Hypothetical TV Show Theme Song

Had a great time last night celebrating Laura's mastership (also today when she showed us the bats that she studies).  At some point during the evening a flash of inspiration hit me and a new superhero/sci-fi/comedy show was invented.  For the rest of the night I was aided by... everyone at the party... in coming up with a back-story and episode arcs for this theoretical TV show.  Then we came up with lyrics to the theme song.

David is about to arrive, so I won't say anything about the show other than it involves a superhero with the power to time travel, but only under very specific circumstances.  He also causes, when he first discovers his powers, all of the problems which he later has to somehow fix.

(Imagine the music with an 80's feel.  Special thanks to Laura, Peter, Clay, Christine, and Dan)

There once was a bro named Evan
who drank too much one night...
went back in time and screwed things up
and now must set things right.

We need a superhero,
but we're stuck with him instead.
He'll either remember what he forgot
or he'll have to drink 'til he's dead....

TIMEDRUNK!  He's unconventionally blessed!
TIMEDRUNK! One more shot to fix this mess!
TIMEDRUNK!  Keep your BAC high!
And try not to step on a butterfly....

TIMEDRUNK!

Large groups of people in grad school should not be allowed to purchase kegs.  Lesson learned.

  1. I'm actually amazed this has not already been made into a tv show. You should make it happen.
