Another World is an American television soap opera that aired on NBC from May 4, 1964 to June 25, 1999. It ran for a total of 35 years. It was created by Irna Phillips along with William J. Bell, and was produced by Procter & Gamble Productions at NBC Studios, 1268 East 14th Street in Brooklyn.
Set in the fictional town of Bay City, the show in its early years opens with announcer Bill Wolff (1964–1987) intoning its epigram, “We do not live in this world alone, but in a thousand other worlds,” which Irna said represented the difference between “the world of events we live in, and the world of feelings and dreams that we strive for.” Another World focused less on the conventional drama of domestic life as seen in other soap operas, and more on exotic melodrama between families of different classes and philosophies.
In 1964, AW was the first soap opera to talk about abortion when such subjects were taboo. It was the first soap opera to do a crossover, with the character of Mike Bauer from Guiding Light coming from Springfield to Bay City, and the first to go to one hour, then to 90 minutes, and then back to an hour. It was the first soap to launch two spin-offs (Somerset and Texas) as well as an indirect one (Lovers and Friends, which would be renamed For Richer, For Poorer). AW was also the first soap opera with a theme song to chart on the Billboard Hot 100 "(You Take Me Away To) Another World" by Crystal Gayle and Gary Morris, in 1987. Shortly after its conclusion, NBC replaced it with Passions.

Chewed his leg on the porch
Why¹d you do it Fluffy
On the porch?
Good dog Fluffy
Old friend, my pal
Fluffy¹s got his buddy
On the porch
Penny, she's my girlie
She sits here with me, on the porch
Oh Penny looks so pretty
On the porch
Penny takes Fluffy for a walk out
On the path
And Fluffy chases the other doggies
On the path
The pig says to Penny
"Get Fluffy back on the porch"
So me and Fluffy and Penny
The fruit man sold the guava to the black man
The black man peeled the skin with the bare hand
A juice man took a stand with the fruit man
And they cooked up the fish brought in fresh from the ocean
The fish man sold an axe to the boat man
A chinaman caused a scene with the black man
Accused him of selling fish that was frozen
The black man yelled at the chinaman,
"It is not broken. It is not frozen.
The fish it was just caught in the ocean.
I do not steal.
Don't breathe another sound or I'll take that fish and return it to the ocean."
The fruit man consoled the black man
The boatman explained to the chinaman
And it was dark, really dark, with the sun down
And the fish they swam, they swam in the ocean
[instrumental]
Is it alive, does it writhe
Can it survive under the sun?
I can't put my finger on it.
Is it green, is it red
Is it alive or is it dead
I can't put my finger on it
Scathe with a lathe
All the days in the past
I can't put my finger on it
Is it brown, is it white
Is it really outta sight
I can't put my finger on it
Can it squeal, does it squirm
If it's fresh will it burn?
I can't put my finger on it
Can it fly, will it try
If the wings are still wet?
I can't put my finger on it
Can it heal, is it real
Can it feel the threads of time?
I can't put my finger on it
Does it glow, will it shine
Does it leave a trail of slime
I can't put my finger on it
Are you surprised when I touch the dwarf inside?

She's a sweetheart in the summer
Summertime is here again
She's a sweetheart in the summer
And I hope it never ends
Winter days that never end
Frozen nights with you under the covers
But the lonely time we spend is worth it in the end when summer comes
Makin' love and holdin' hands
Rollin' in the sun and sand together
But every year when summer comes around
We fall in love again
She's a sweetheart in the summer
Summertime is here again
She's a sweetheart in the summer
And I hope it never ends
I'm gonna take you far away
Pack the car let's get away for a while (getaway getaway...)
We'll find a hotel room and call it home for just a couple days
Love to see your smiling face nothing else is sweeter in the world
'cause when everything is said and done you will always be my girl
She's a sweetheart in the summer
Summertime is here again
She's a sweetheart in the summer
And I hope it never ends
Sweetheart in the summertime 2x

(Repeat Chorus)
I feel you now inside me
Never once did you deny me
Doin' that stuff that you do
Knockin' me out with your voodoo
(Repeat Chorus)
(Repeat first verse)
Take me away to some other land
I gotta get away from that girl before I go crazy
She took my love away
She took it to another man
Now I gotta get away from that girl
Before I go craaaaazy
(Repeat twice)
Gotta get away
Crazy
She took my love away
Now I gotta get away

There were beverages laid out for the party
There were candy and spices and tricolored pastas
The meat carved was drawn from succulent juices
Served on platters of the purest gold
I was calm when we arrived at the party
I spoke with fervor, embracing the evening
My wife leaned over and she whispered 'I love you'
I held her close - we danced
We had the best time at your party
The wife and I thank you very much
We had the best time at your party
The wife and I thank you very much
Creampuffs and bourbon and the music was louder
My wife was competing in a game of chance
The party raged and the guests were screaming
I could have danced all night
We had the best time at your party
The wife and I thank you very much
We had the best time at your party
The wife and I thank you very much
Later on when we were under the covers
I closed my eyes, then I drifted to sleep
I dreamt about me maybe throwing a party
And just how great that would be
And we said
We had the best time at your party
The wife and I thank you very much
We had the best time at your party
Good morning my love
The skies are clearing up today
Can I kiss you on the boob
Like I did yesterday?
You let me in
You let me sin
You made me cry
You got me high
Can I touch you in the nude?
You lookin' really good in bed
How come you ain't talkin'
Like we was yesterday?
You let me in
You let me sin
You made me cry
You got me high
Wake up little wakeup
Got somethin' new to say
Don't move a muscle
I'm gettin' dressed and I can't stay
Oh, you let me in
You let me sin
You made me cry
You got me high
You let me in
You got me high
Got me high
Got me high, high, high
Good morning love
Ahhhhh, shit, ahhh
Ahhhh bumblebee stung me
He stung my brain
Awwwww
He stung me, he stung me, uhh
Weedeating Vaughn's grass
A big bumblebee came right out
He stung me 47,000 times on my head
It hurt, it hurt, oh god it hurt so badly
Ahhhh bumblebee stung me
Bumblebee stung me
Bumblebee stung me
Bumblebee stung me
Thank you!
The wash is out, It's hanging up
And all I have is nothing
Nothing to do, nothing to say
I think I must be dreaming
The sun comes up and I'm all washed out
Is this what Deaner was talkin' about
I don't think I will ever return again my friend
If I was king, I'd wear a ring
And never hurt my people
I'd stay alert, and dress to kill
I might even slip you something
The sun comes up and I'm all washed out
Is this what Deaner was talkin' about
I don't think I will ever return again my friend
The sun comes up and I'm all washed out
Is this what Deaner was talkin' about
Take a piece of tinsel and put it on the tree
Cut a slab of melon and pretend that you still love me
Carve out a pumpkin and rely on your destiny
Get in your car and cruise the land of the brave and free
But don't forget to understand exactly what you put on the tree
Don't believe the florist when he tells you that the roses are free
Take a wrinkled raisan, and do with it what you will
Push it into third if you know you're gonna climb a hill
Eat plenty of lasagna 'til you know that you've had your fill
Resist all the urges that make you wanna go out and kill
But don't forget to understand exactly what you put on the tree
Don't believe the florist when he tells you that the roses are free
Throw that pumpkin at the tree
Unless you think that pumpkin holds your destiny
let me lock in the system at warp 2
push it into systematic overdrive -
u know what 2 do
let's cruise! past all the golden poo
that makes me blue
this thing gonna ? ? ? ? on the
poopship destroyer
let me jam all the frequencies on channel 2
i've been chewin' on this brownie
and i thinks i'm almost through
let's cruise! the chocolate stew was u know who
i told u to jam the frequency
this sector's chartered by you
Old Queen Cole, gotsta take control
You drinkin' whiskey and wine and it tastes just fine
For you now Nicki life is gettin' tricky
And you're runnin' outta gas drivin' way too fast
Full throttle in gear tryin' hard to steer you
Toward immaculate conception, heavy metal perception
There's a world that's all around you and no one will ever find you
For you that's ok 'cause tomorrow's just another day
Rock, roll, butter, bread, remember what yo' mama said
Hey it's just yo' life, why don't you find the biggest knife
You can find now baby yeah you actin' like a lady
You got blood on your pants and I know that you can dance
Queen Cole Queen Cole, gotsta take control
You drinkin' whiskey and wine and it tastes just fine
For you now Nicki life is gettin' tricky
And you're runnin' outta gas drivin' way too fast
This is our best gig...ever...
No, no!
Way up on -
I knew you'd fuck it up!
Here it come!
Way up on the hill there's an old whiskey still
And it's right by a hard working crew
If you finish up your mug (oh beautiful) then they'll fill up your jug
With that good, good 'ol mountain dew (everybody sing)
Well, they call it that good old mountain dew
And them that refuse it are few
Well, you may go 'round the bend but you'll come back again
For that good, good 'ol mountain dew, whoo!
Turn it down, Kirk!
Take it, Jimmy!
Hey, Kirk! I can't hear this thing, man!
Oh!
Hey, let's everybody!
Well, they call it that good old mountain dew
(You like this one, do you?)
And them that refuse it are few
Well, you may go 'round the bend but you'll come back again
For that good old mountain dew
So it....
Ha ha ha!
Whoa, Jimmy!
Whoo, goddamn fuckin' a!
Thank you, we're Ween!
Good night, St. Louis!
Like a Japanese cowboy or a brother on skates
Like a blizzard in Georgia or a train runnin' late
I call out your name girl in the heat of the night
And nobody answers 'cause somethin' ain't right
Breakfast at Shoney's at 2.99
Saved me some money and eased up my mind
I'm walkin' in circles and feelin' the pain
I'm tossin' and turnin' and cryin' in vain
Like a Japanese cowboy or a brother on skates
Like a blizzard in Georgia or a train runnin' late
I call out your name girl in the heat of the night
And nobody answers 'cause somethin' ain't right
Here we go
I'm ridin' at midnight and crossin' the line
From the rain in my windshield and the tears in my eyes
Now the bedroom is empty and I spent my last dime
And the lovers are leavin', I got nothin' but time
I got you on my mind
Like a Japanese cowboy or a brother on skates
Like a blizzard in Georgia or a train runnin' late
I call out your name girl in the heat of the night
don't quiver little boy
your daddy's with you now
it won't be long anyhow
it's just around the corner
the destiny that i embrace with you
don't get 2 close to my fantasy
don't be afraid to clutch the hand of your creator
stare into the lion's eyes
and if u taste the candy
you'll get 2 the surprise
stay calm little dreamer
and drift off into dreams
the gentle kiss of night
is better than it seems
it's just around the corner
close your eyes and soon you'll be with me
Skag trapped in a demon sweat the night she left.
Wrapped up in a blanket and I'm feelin' wet.
They said she flew from the goals in her life.
Then she wet like blood from a knife.
I'm here, and it's all so clear now.
Wind flows and it's blowing cold, and I'm still here.
Gripping onto what's not around.
Now it's all so clear to me now.
Now I know, some times I try a bit too hard.
And I can't let go of you.
Boo-boop-dee-doo. Boo-boo-boop-dee-doo.
I couldn't taste the taste that I was tastin'
I couldn't hear the waste that I was makin'
Tired of the life I was facin'
I couldn't tell one from another
I couldn't hide a secret from my mother
Any other mother wouldn't bother
Makin' time, breakin' ground
Sail Brown Bay to Chocolate town
Got me on the porch, I'm in the front row
Says, "Shit's for real man", like I don't know
But get your punk ass back to the dog show
Makin' time, breakin' ground
Sail Brown Bay to Chocolate town
A new breath, I feel the grip releasin'
Scraping my guts off of the ceiling
I've got that sunny bunny feeling
Makin' time, breakin' ground
Sail Brown Bay to Chocolate town
Makin' time, breakin' ground
Sail Brown Bay to Chocolate town
Makin' time, breakin' ground
Captain, turn around and take me home
Ahhhhh, shit, ohhh shit
Ohhhhh Jesus!
Ahhhh bumblebee
He stung me, stung me ahhhhh
He stung my brain
Awwwww
Weedeating Vaughn's grass
A big bumblebee came right out
He stung me 47, 000 times on my head
It hurt, it hurt, oh god it hurt so badly
Ahhhh bumblebee stung me
Bumblebee stung me
Bumblebee stung me
It's been a while since I've seen you smile
But now you've come back again
Came into the room and you saw my girl
And you asked her how long it's been
"A year" she said and you shook your head
Said "I'm surprised it's gone on that long"
Baby, Baby, Baby Bitch
For words I am at a loss
Baby, Baby, Baby Bitch
I'm better now please fuck off
What else you gonna say while you're back on your stay
Maybe something, maybe nothing we'll see
It's just too bad, you're beautiful I guess
I wasn't for you and you weren't for me
Baby, Baby, Baby Bitch
Please slip back into yourself
Baby, Baby, Baby Bitch
Go conquer someone else
People say, "How beautiful, how sweet, how kind"
You're perfect, you've got nothing to hide
But I, for one, have seen the sun
And the bitch that you've locked up inside
Got fat, got angry, started hating myself
Wrote "Birthday Boy" for you babe
Now I'm skinny and sick and paranoid
Without a cent to my name
Baby, Baby, Baby Bitch
Fuck you, you stinkin' ass ho
Most beauty I've seen
You come from a dream
But I can't close my eyes anymore
Hey fat boy, come here -- you killed my mother, I'm going to kill you
Hey fat boy, come here -- I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you
Hey fat boy, asshole, come here, you killed my mother
Hey fat boy, come here -- asshole, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you
Fucker, asshole, come here -- you killed my mother
Hey asshole, come here -- I'm going to kill you -- I'm going to kill you
Asshole, come here -- asshole, come here -- hey asshole, come here
Fucker, come here -- you killed my mother -- I'm going to kill you
Hey fat boy, come here -- you killed my mother
Hey asshole, come here -- hey asshole, come here
Hey there fancypants
Play the songs that make us dance
Play the tunes that make the ladies swoon
A song for all the lonely hearts, shattered dreams and broken parts
Feels like sunny days are coming soon
Hey Mr. Buttercup
Spin the wheel and try your luck
The spotlight's shining bright tonight on you
Bring along your lady friend, do a dance from way back when
Tonight's the night when all your dreams come true
Hey there sour grapes
Down in the dumps, long in the face
Drinkin' down your dinner, all alone
Feelin' bad, feelin' blue, tonight the rainbow ends with you
So sit on down and make yourself at home... So
Hey there fancypants
Play the songs that make us dance
Play the tunes that make the ladies swoon
A song for all the lonely hearts, shattered dreams and broken parts
Feels like sunny days are coming soon
(Thomas)
Hey, hey, I see a Melbourne girl on a rusty Malvern Star,
Through the spastic Northcote streets at dawn
See the way her hair's tied back,
Her cheeks so red, a grey coat ragged and worn.
Picture this, a paper boy,
He stands outside a Collingwood hotel
On his back black and white,
He hums a tune I've learnt to hate so well.
But oh oh, won't you meet me
Under the clocks, we'll go walking by the river
Through the mud and through the slime
Are you so surprised,
That I am here, full of cheer
In this fair city, in the Winter time.
Well I'll tell you what, it's such a lark,
We'll take a walk down Fawkner Park
And check the health fanatics,
See them, they go jogging there.
Could buy some chips, a piece of flake,
Drive down and eat them by the lake,
I know a shop in Chapel Street
Where nothing could compare.
But oh oh, won't you meet me
Under the clocks, we'll go walking by the river
Through the mud and through the slime
Are you so surprised,
That I am here, full of cheer
In this fair city, in the Winter time.
We could find a pub where it is warm,
Study up our racing form,
Hit the TAB, we'll blow our money there, tell me this -
Is there anywhere you'd rather be
Than with me at the MCG,
And if the Saints get done again,
By Christ, I couldn't care.
But oh oh, won't you meet me
Under the clocks, we'll go walking by the river
Through the mud and through the slime
Are you so surprised,
That I am here, full of cheer
In this fair city, in the Winter time.
In the Winter time, in the Winter time
In the Winter time, brrr!
Squelch the little weasel, crush him before he spawns
Break it to me gently, but with merriment and song
Squelch the little weasel, juice him as he bleeds
Feed him to the many, for thous their souls shall weep
Sipping of the sunray blading in the earth
Evolving was the nectar given to the weasel birth
I was just a puppet until the clouds caved in
Bless me now you are sacred my flesh betwixt my skin
Sipping of the sunray blading in the earth
Why they wanna see my spine mommy?
Why they wanna see my spine?
It's gonna hurt again mommy
Much worse than last time
Am I gonna see God, mommy?
Am I gonna die?
It really hurts mommy!
Am I gonna die?
Smile on mighty Jesus
Spinal meningitis got me down
I'm feelin' grasy mommy
Please don't let me die
Stinky vaseline mommy
Please don't let me die
Am I gonna see God, mommy?
Am I gonna die?
It really hurts mommy!
Am I gonna die?
Smile on mighty Jesus
Bop-shoo-wanne-wanne
Up on the hill, down by the river
By the ocean, across the field
By the word of the boognish
I said, ";Lordy lordy lord, I'm comin' home";
(Lordy lordy lord, I'm comin' home)
When I was younger my momma told me
She said ";Gener, I wanna smell it.";
And then she smelled it and it was smelly
And she said, ";Lordy lordy lord, I'm comin' home";
(Lordy lordy lord, I'm comin' home) In a dream said he was comin'
Boognish was risin' up from the mist
He held the scepter of wealth and power
And said, ";By god, I've come to take you home.";
(By god, I've come to take you home)
You fucked up
You bitch
You really fucked up
You fucked up
you fuckin' nazi whore
You dicked me over
But now you'll pay
You fucked up
Voodoo Lady
Shakin' that stick and drivin' me crazy
Your eyes look red and hazy
Doin' that stuff that you do
Messin' me up with your voodoo
You drive me crazy with that
Boogie oogie oogie oogie oogie
You drive me crazy with that
Boogie boogie boogie
Your lips are hot and spicy
Servin' up red beans and rice
At midnite she's a' howlin' and stompin'
Makin' love to the gators in the swampin'
(Repeat Chorus)
I feel you now inside me
Never once did you deny me
Doin' that stuff that you do
Knockin' me out with your voodoo
(Repeat Chorus)
(Repeat first verse)
(Repeat Chorus)

Sitting alone in the den
Watching the eel
Help me find my way home
Watching the eel
Burrows it's head in the sand
Daylight has come
There shall be rest in a while
Daylight has come
I can not repeal
The words of the golden eel
Who can explain all these thoughts
Racking my mind
An endless barrage of shit
Racking my mind
The eel offered his help
I can't understand
Speaking it's truth from the bank
Now I can see
I cannot repeal the words of the golden eel
I cannot repeal the words of the golden eel
Three men's all there were, three men out at sea
Three men came aboard my ship and took my true love from me
I couldn't believe
She wanted to leave -- she wanted to leave
I've loved you so long, since you were a child
I've cared for your every need, I've tried to make you smile
When all the while
You wanted to leave -- you wanted to leave
Go gather the guns, we'll blast them at sea
She begged for me not to shoot
For ";My true love is here with me,
And I've never loved thee,
And now I must leave, and now I must leave.";
So go fetch a bottle of rum dear friends
And fill up my glass to the rim
For I'm not the man, I used to be
Now I'm one of them
[";Dancing In The Show"; outro]
Monsters that trinkle like cats in the night
The cosmic conceiver continues his plight
A war of the heavens, what's wrong and what's right
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
Spraying the children with incense and myrrh
The hopeless confessions of minds unsure
Spraying the children with incense and myrrh
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
I tried to come over and see you today
I tried to come over to want you to say
I wanted you say to come today
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
Mindlessly hoping she falls for their minds
Holding the sacraments, secrets unkind
Chewing the curdles of cream from the rain
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
Chewing the grits...
Right to the ways and the rules of the world
Monsters that tinkle, trinkle like the jam's gone astray...
[Instrumental]
Bark, uhhhh....

When you came into the Pod, you told me that something was wrong
Said you wasn't havin' no more fun and you want to lick the sun.
Couldn't say it was any fun. Oh dude.
Now you're on the couch. You can't even move your fucking head.
Tell me that you wish you was dead.
Dude, I really don't wish you was dead.
Better stay in your sweaty mucus bed. Oh dude.
I can't have a smoke,
Can't even enjoy a little brew.
Can't even enjoy a little brew.
What the hell's my bugging going to do?
Can't even pet the horses in zoo.
We're Ween, it's 1991!
And we are here to play you music
Now this song is called ";Mushroom Festival In Hell";.
The wind is howling and the time is right for fear
In the emergence in the phosphorescent tears
And all the hippies gonna lick the mind of god?
They've already been immersed in the wad
The wind is howling and the sea is boiling down
The mind is the water, the mind is the water
'Cause it's a mushroom festival in hell
'Cause it's a mushroom festival in hell
Yeah!
How would you feel, if I took you away
To a place I know, a place where we could stay
Called Joppa Road, a pretty place I know
where we can go, called Joppa Road
The things I feel on Joppa Road
Can make me stay, and make me go
This old road where I long to go
Called Joppa Road, where we can go
Put your best dress on, there's a place I know
Where we can go, called Joppa Road
It's a little ways, where the sun shines down
Where we drive real slow, on Joppa Road
Joppa Road, a pretty place I know
Where we can go, called Joppa Road
Hey, yo bro, that's a dude I know
Works on Joppa Road, at the Sunoco
If we drive by slow, with the top down low
We'll heel and toe on Joppa Road
(Repeat first verse)
It's a little ways where the sun shines down
Where we drive real slow on Joppa Road
On Joppa Road, Joppa Road
Baby what have I done
Gone and left you, all alone
It's hard for me to sing this song
We've been together for so long
I think I know what my soul's got to say
And it won't hurt as bad, someday
It's gonna be alright, baby
It's gonna be alright, love
And if the mist ever let's the sun through
I'll just hope I did the right thing
For me and you
Guess I'm ruled by my heart
Built a life and I tore it all apart
It's just not our time
But you'll find a new love, and you'll be fine
So many dark and lonely nights
But I believe someday I'll see the light
It's gonna be alright, baby
It's gonna be alright, love
And if the mist ever let's the sun through
I'll just hope I did the right thing
For me and you
It's gonna be alright, baby
It's gonna be alright, love
And if the mist ever let's the sun through
I'll just hope I did the right thing
For me and you
Do you ever walk alone?
Like a drifter in the dark
Seeking out what isn't there
Looking only for a spark
From a girl who's all alone
Maybe she's a driftin' too
Like a shadow in the night
Waitin' just to meet with you
And then perhaps in love you'll stay
Or fall and go your seperate ways
Still searchin' for a spark
Like a drifter in the dark
Freedom of the body
Freedom of the mind
A ho on South Street hired for tricks
Little girls pickin' up sticks
Freedom of '76
Wastee little weasel
Wants cheap tricks
Liberty bell cracked in half
A bacon steak
A perfect match
Freedom of '76
My girl Sasha
Lookin' good on the street
"Mannequin" was filmed at Woolworth's
Boyz II Men still keepin' up the beat, yeah
Freedom of '76
Fairmount Park in the summer
Lookin' good on the street
"Mannequin" was filmed at Woolworth's
Boyz II Men still keepin' up the beat
As she bounces through the blue sky
Everybody's building up a big blue balloon
They made the string from fairy wings and golden dreams
See how high it goes
No one knows about the blue balloon
She's defied the eyes of all man
Sliding over and down the big blue balloon
Can the father's love reach the child above the clouds
So as to dance the day up high
Way up high, above the blue balloon
Blue, blue balloon
My soul calls to you
See her bounce along the banks of Buckinow
She's a sweet surprise and odd why accepting all
Beating along the paths, boulder caps and icicles
She melts into the earth and blows the air back to the central
Blue balloon
Blue, blue balloon
My soul calls to you
I dreamt of a move
a great move
to another place with much more land
I was driven by car
and woke before I got there
I remember the place and it was beautiful
A friends a friend who knows what being a friend is, talking with a friend.
As friends we were always so close but so far away...
friends in life are special do you want me as your special friend?
Cause you're the friend that I've been searching for.
There was more for me
It would be more open
scary to think that I could be happy
she'd said it was the same road
but up more, alot more
just be patient and we'll get there
A friends a friend who knows what being a friend is, talking with a friend.
As friends we were always so close but so far away...
friends in life are special do you want me as your special friend?
Cause you're the friend that I've been searching for.
I never got there
but the morning brings light
and so, I'll keep on looking.
A friends a friend who knows what being a friend is, talking with a friend.
As friends we were always so close but so far away...
