Theme lyrics[]
RUFF RUFFMAN: Life was missing its mystique My squeaky toys have lost their squeak And then, out of the blue, I saw the phone and BAM! My destiny is calling me!
Pitched my vision for a show They loved it! Thought I was a pro They've got my contract back to find To their alarm a dog had signed
