The Kite


These are the lyrics to Danny's version of the kite song from You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown.
Danny: (singing) Little more speed, little more rope, little more wind, little more hope, gotta get this stupid kite to fly. Gotta make sure it doesn't snag, doesn't droop, doesn't drag. Gotta watch out for every little- whoops! Little less speed, little more tack, little less rise, little more slack, gotta keep my wits about me now. Gotta make sure it doesn't get the best of me till I get it in the air somehow. Millions of little kids do it everyday. They make a kite and poof it's in the sky. Leave it to me to have the one fool kite who likes to see a big guy cry. Little less talk, little more skill, little less luck, little more will, gotta face this fellow eye to eye. Now that I've seen you chasing moles, climbing trees, digging holes, catching your string on everything passing by. Why not fly? Wait a minute, what's it doing? It isn't on the ground. It isn't in a tree. It's in the air! Look at that. It's caught the breeze now, it's past the trees now with room to spare...Oh- what a beautiful sight. And I'm not such a clumsy guy. If I really try, I can really fly a kite.
Fran: (spoken) What happened to your kite, Danny? It looks like it ran into a tree.

What do you remember about Frannie,The Female Lead/Guitar Player/Singer on The Great Space Coaster? She was a Brunette. You can get a DVD of The Great Space Coaster Supershow on Ebay. It has 3 Episodes from 1981 and it has Guest Stars such as Mark Hamill and Valerie Harper. Have you signed the Bring Back The Great Space Coaster Petition yet @ www.petiononline.co m/TGSC? It already has 1,536 Signatures. Also on The Great Space Coaster Homepage is The Great Space Coaster Home Page Messageboard Forum.There are plenty of comments on it.Do you remember Baffle, The Caterpillar Magician from The Planet Blimp, The Huggles,Baby Huggle and rockin With Rory? I remember once The Cast harassed Goriddle about not being Special, so he went Depressed to Fran ,who was praticing Her Music in The Coasterville Ampitheater. Frannie said,"What's The Matter, Goriddle?" Goriddle told Her why he was upset. Then Frannie said,"Don't feel bad, Goriddle. People always put me down just because I'm a Girl."Then Frannie and Goriddle sang a song together about being Special.Frannie had her arm around Goriddle while they sang this song. Then Frannie said,"We'll show them who's special Goriddle. Here's the plan." She whispered it in his ear.I also remember Goriddle's Hero, Bananaman. Goriddle promised the cast he would call Bananaman up and ask him to get a Leaf Like Creature to do a concert at The Coasterville Ampitheater. When Goriddle couldn't reach Bananaman on the phone, he decide to dress up like a leaf like creature for the concert. When he got to the concert and they realized it was really him, Knock Knock The Bird and Edison Elephant got very mad. Frannie, Danny, and Roy watched, laughing from the distance, as Edison and Knock Knock pulled off Goriddle's leaves as a punishment for lying one by one.Goriddle went, "Oww, oww, oww!" Do you remember Frannie putting Her Hand on Goriddle's Tummy a lot to be affectionate? I also remember Goriddle making himself lots of Banana Splits in The Coaster Kitchen and getting tummy aches from eating too many of them.How many years did you watch this show? I used to watch it from 1984 to 1987 every morning before school when I was in the 1st to 3rd Grades.Do you remember Frannie's Beautiful Voice, when She sang songs like "Yellow Orange Day" and "To Be A Dancer!" Do you remember when Frannie used to Sing and Play Her Guitar in TGSC Band? I remember when Frannie had a hard time doing an assignment and A Live Footage Segment was Played that went"Why didn't I do my homework?" What did you like best about The Great Space Coaster? Did you know it won Several Peabody Awards and an Emmy Award in 1982.I remember an Episode where Goriddle stole Baxter's Diary and he accidentially turned himself invisible.baxter thought Mean Ringleader M.T. Promises stole his Diary, so Danny and Roy brought him back all tied up in Rope! Then Goriddle came back later invisible and he couldn't undue it. Goriddle said he was sorry and Baxter made him visible again. Then Frannie rubbed his Tummy.Another time, when Gary Gnu tried to direct a play, the only part left for Goriddle was the opening the door man.Goriddle complained. Frannie said,"Come on, Goriddle. Try to Cooperate with Gary's Play. If you directed a play, we'd listen to you." Knock Knock said,"If you don't do your part of opening the door man good, I'll slam you!"Knock Knock laughed in a Daffy Way.Goriddle then took the script home to look over in his mouth.Goriddle went along with his part in the play, but then he started harassing Knock Knock as the main scene went on.Frannie, Danny, and Roy came in the middle of the disrupted scene and all 3 of them tied Goriddle up with Rope! Do you remember Goriddle underhandedly taking over Gary Gnu's Show and being afraid of heights? Please write me back again. Thanks again for reading my post. I really appreciate your comments.Lets get this show all 7 seasons on DVD. It had such a warm touch!
