A big hit television show today, what does it get? Ten million viewers? Let’s go crazy and say fifteen. Fifteen million viewers, because this is a big, giant hit. Here’s what you got to understand. I Love Lucy, sixty million.

Now you could study Shakespeare and be quite elite  
And you can charm the critics and have nothin’ to eat  
Just slip on a banana peel  
The world’s at your feet  
Make 'em laugh  
Make 'em laugh  
Make 'em laugh
