You’re a wonder, Wonder Woman  
Fighting for our rights, in your satin tights,

_Wonder Woman_

Why do we always come here?  
I guess we’ll never know.  
It’s like a kind of torture,  
To have to watch this show!

[Insert bad Fozzie joke here, at least in season one]

But now let’s get things started

Celebrational, Muppetational,  
This is what we call _The Muppet Show!_

Streaks on the china, never mattered before…
