Joey is an American sitcom, a spin-off from Friends, which stars Matt LeBlanc reprising his role as Joey Tribbiani. It premiered on the NBC television network, on September 9, 2004, in the former time slot of its parent series, Thursday nights at 8:00 p.m. Midway through the second season, the show was placed on a hiatus by NBC but returned on March 7, 2006, in a new timeslot of Tuesdays at 8:30 p.m. One episode, "Joey and the Snowball Fight", was shown on a Tuesday at 8:30 p.m, but was pulled by NBC when it was overshadowed in ratings by American Idol. NBC canceled the series in May 2006 and did not broadcast the remaining episodes.
Two cast members had previously appeared as different characters in Friends; Coolidge appeared as Amanda, an old friend of Monica and Phoebe, in a tenth season episode. Adam Goldberg appeared in Friends' second season in the recurring role of Eddie, who moves in with Chandler after Joey moves out. Additionally, Robert Costanzo reprised his role as Joey's father, a character originated in the first season of Friends, in "Joey and the Dad". Costanzo was the only actor besides LeBlanc to play the same character in this series as in Friends (Gina appeared in a third season episode of Friends, but was not played by Drea de Matteo; Joey's sister Mary Theresa also appeared in a third season Friends episode, but was played by a different actress than on Joey).
Plot
The series follows the life of 25 year old Isaac (played by Zaccheus Chan) as he struggles to expand the scope of his life beyond the walled cubicle of his blossoming career as a telemarketer. Isaac views life and other people through a lens of unrelenting skepticism, but his perspective begins to be challenged by the various people who surround him. Seen as a disgrace by his tiger mom and eagle dad for refusing to carry on the family business, he is buoyed by his caring and supportive teenage sister Katherine (Joyeuse Lee). Isaac's happy-go-lucky co-worker Joey, an optimistic socially awkward refugee from Africa striving to fit in to Canadian culture, turns out to have a deep and complex personal history. Isaac is often accompanied by his childhood friends Brian, a weary accountant working for a major firm who hates every waking moment of his life, and Phillip, a body-building accountant-turned-florist who found his zen through the Japanese art of floral arrangement known as ikebana.
Plot
It's 1972 in the hard-working steel town of Pittsburgh, PA.

Plot

Lá vem o gigante
Quando ela botar a mão
Adormeceu deu um choque no chuveiro
Que me deitou no chão
Tá na hora de acoxá
Penso nela sem querer
Me animou
Conversa boa é mulher e som, nessa ordem
E continue assim
Cara esperto é ligeiro
Quem corre atrás não é o primeiro
Aonde vai você
Legalize o meu CD
Bota aquele som que o Joey
Mandou prá mim!
Refrão
Pouco tempo pra viver
Na estrada eu lembro de nós dois
Tempo bom que não se foi
Impeça alguém de me acordar
Realidade é melhor sonhar
Um dia a gente vai se ver
De novo
Meu pai tá preocupado
Aonde esse infeliz está
Amanheceu e eu pelado no chuveiro
Cordei trincando os dente
Acabei com toda a água quente
Aonde vai você
Legalize o meu CD
Bota aquele som que o Joey
Mandou prá mim!
Refrão 2 vezes
if now's the time to get it right
it won't be over
I won't get over it
I thought about what I did
the air is colder than your shoulder
it won't be over until you're through with it
times have changed but I haven't
I wonder what you'd say
if I was never in your way
without you to occupy my mind
and I've wasted all my time
I know what's right
it's untouchable like (you)
you know I'm right
I'm the shadow in your light
The first time that I saw you
I went head over heels
You were the one for me
I just adore you
See I'm down on my knees
And now we've found each other
I could never leave
Joey, I've fallen in love, oh yeah
Joey you're all I'll ever need
Joey, I've fallen in love, oh yeah
Joey you're all I'll ever need
Sometimes when I feel like
I'm fighting the world
I know you're on my side
They're trying to control me
With their promises now
But we've still got each other
When they try and get us down
Joey, I've fallen in love, oh yeah
Joey you're all I'll ever need
Joey, I've fallen in love, oh yeah
Joey you're all I'll ever need
You're part of my life
Everyday I need your love more
Oh and I'll never give you up
Is it me you're looking for . . .
Joey, I've fallen in love, oh yeah
Joey you're all I'll ever need
Joey, I've fallen in love, oh yeah
To live between a rock and a hard place
In between time
Cruising in prime time
Soaking up the cathode rays
To live between the wars in our time
Living in real time
Holding the good time
Holding on to yesterdays
Chorus
You know how that rabbit feels
Going under your speeding wheels
Bright images flashing by
Like windshields towards a fly
Frozen in the fatal climb
But the wheels of time
Just pass you by
Wheels can take you around
Wheels can cut you down
We can go from boom to bust
From dreams to a bowl of dust
We can fall from rockets' red glare
Down to Brother can you spare...
Another war
Another wasteland
And another lost generation
It slips between your hands like water
This living in real time
A dizzying lifetime
Reeling by on celluloid
Struck between the eyes
By the big-time world
Walking uneasy streets
Hiding beneath the sheets
Got to try and fill the void
Chorus
Wouldn't I be yours
Wouldn't you be mine
Wouldn't I always want the things you are
Every day or year
It's got to be a dream, yes it is, yes it is,
It's got to be a dream, yes it is.
Wouldn't I need yours
Wouldn't you need mine
Wouldn't I always want the things you are
Every day or year
It's got to be a dream, yes it is, yes it is,
It's got to be a dream, yes it is.
Wouldn't I always think about you
Wouldn't I every day
Wouldn't always think about you
Joey's in a dream
Joey's in a dream
Joey's in a dream I had today.
Wouldn't I be yours
Wouldn't you be mine
Wouldn't I always want the things you are
Every day or year
It's got to be a dream, yes it is, yes it is,
It's got to be a dream, yes it is.
Wouldn't I always think about you
Wouldn't I every day
Wouldn't always think about you
Joey's in a dream
Joey's in a dream
Born in Red Hook, Brooklyn, in the year of who knows when
Opened up his eyes to the tune of an accordion
Always on the outside of whatever side there was
When they asked him why it had to be that way, "Well," he answered, "just
because."
Larry was the oldest, Joey was next to last.
They called Joe "Crazy," the baby they called "Kid Blast."
Some say they lived off gambling and runnin' numbers too.
It always seemed they got caught between the mob and the men in blue.
Joey, Joey,
King of the streets, child of clay.
Joey, Joey,
What made them want to come and blow you away?
There was talk they killed their rivals, but the truth was far from that
No one ever knew for sure where they were really at.
When they tried to strangle Larry, Joey almost hit the roof.
He went out that night to seek revenge, thinkin' he was bulletproof.
The war broke out at the break of dawn, it emptied out the streets
Joey and his brothers suffered terrible defeats
Till they ventured out behind the lines and took five prisoners.
They stashed them away in a basement, called them amateurs.
The hostages were tremblin' when they heard a man exclaim,
"Let's blow this place to kingdom come, let Con Edison take the blame."
But Joey stepped up, he raised his hand, said, "We're not those kind of men.
It's peace and quiet that we need to go back to work again."
Joey, Joey,
King of the streets, child of clay.
Joey, Joey,
What made them want to come and blow you away?
The police department hounded him, they called him Mr. Smith
They got him on conspiracy, they were never sure who with.
"What time is it?" said the judge to Joey when they met
"Five to ten," said Joey. The judge says, "That's exactly what you get."
He did ten years in Attica, reading Nietzsche and Wilhelm Reich
They threw him in the hole one time for tryin' to stop a strike.
His closest friends were black men 'cause they seemed to understand
What it's like to be in society with a shackle on your hand.
When they let him out in '71 he'd lost a little weight
But he dressed like Jimmy Cagney and I swear he did look great.
He tried to find the way back into the life he left behind
To the boss he said, "I have returned and now I want what's mine."
Joey, Joey,
King of the streets, child of clay.
Joey, Joey,
Why did they have to come and blow you away?
It was true that in his later years he would not carry a gun
"I'm around too many children," he'd say, "they should never know of one."
Yet he walked right into the clubhouse of his lifelong deadly foe,
Emptied out the register, said, "Tell 'em it was Crazy Joe."
One day they blew him down in a clam bar in New York
He could see it comin' through the door as he lifted up his fork.
He pushed the table over to protect his family
Then he staggered out into the streets of Little Italy.
Joey, Joey,
King of the streets, child of clay.
Joey, Joey,
What made them want to come and blow you away?
Sister Jacqueline and Carmela and mother Mary all did weep.
I heard his best friend Frankie say, "He ain't dead, he's just asleep."
Then I saw the old man's limousine head back towards the grave
I guess he had to say one last goodbye to the son that he could not save.
The sun turned cold over President Street and the town of Brooklyn mourned
They said a mass in the old church near the house where he was born.
And someday if God's in heaven overlookin' His preserve
I know the men that shot him down will get what they deserve.
Joey, Joey,
King of the streets, child of clay.
Joey, Joey,
What made them want to come and blow you away?
Syv cifre, lyset skinner,
Det lutter glimmer, men det nytter ikk når du ikk ser mig
I kærlighed er jeg gået fallit,
Men jeg håber på jeg kan byt mit hjerte på dit
Solskin, hvor blev du af?
Pludselig begyndte det er regne på en juni dag
Er du langt væk, kommer du tilbage?
Kom kom kom kom tættere tættere
Det slår gnister, gløden har tændt mig
Du blir simpelthen nødt til at hjælp mig
Jeg har mødt en, men hun møder ikk mig
Kom kom kom kom tættere tættere
Jeg vil gøre alt for at nå dig
Jeg ved jeg har sagt det før
Sig det til mig bare
Fortæl mig hvad jeg skal gøre
Jeg har tjent en million (hey)
Og grædt en tåre for hver en krone
Jeg har fået mit drømmejob (hey)
Nu drømmer jeg om at sige op
For baby, mandag, tirsdag, onsdag, torsdag, fredag, lørdag, søndag
Sidder jeg alene
Og mangler det man ikk' kan købe for penge (hey)
Dit hjerte, oh oh oh oh ohohoho (hey)
Dit hjerte, oh oh oh oh ohohoho (hey)
Dit hjerte, hvad skal der til for
Du lukker op og rækker ud og lader mig kom indenfor?
Du en ener, og jeg ensom
Kom kom kom kom tættere tættere
Kærlighed kan ikke købes for penge,
Aldrig har jeg nogensinde
Mødt en der ka få mig ud af mit gode skin
Kom kom kom kom tættere tættere
Jeg vil gøre alt for at nå dig
Jeg ved jeg har sagt det før
Sig det til mig bare
Fortæl mig hvad jeg skal gøre
Jeg har tjent en million (hey)
Og grædt en tåre for hver en krone
Jeg har fået mit drømmejob (hey)
Nu drømmer jeg om at sige op
For baby, mandag, tirsdag, onsdag, torsdag, fredag, lørdag, søndag
Sidder jeg alene
Og mangler det man ikk' kan købe for penge (hey)
Dit hjerte, oh oh oh oh ohohoho (hey)
Dit hjerte, oh oh oh oh ohohoho (hey)
Dit hjerte
Jeg banker, hvornår lukker du mig ind?
Jeg vakler rundt om mig selv igen
Mine tanker går i syvende sidste ende til dig dig dig
Jeg har tjent en million (hey)
Og grædt en tåre for hver en krone
Jeg har fået mit drømmejob (hey)
Nu drømmer jeg om at sige op
For baby, mandag, tirsdag, onsdag, torsdag, fredag, lørdag, søndag
Mandag, tirsdag, onsdag, torsdag, fredag, lørdag, søndag
Mandag, tirsdag, onsdag, torsdag, fredag, lørdag, søndag
Sidder jeg alene
Og mangler det man ikk' kan købe for penge (hey)
Dit hjerte...

What if I said yes?
What if I'd gone out that night?
What if you turned left
Everything would've turned out alright?
What if I spoke up?
What if I took the keys?
What if I had tried a little harder
Instead of always trying to please?
Joey, I'm so sorry
Oh, can you hear me?
Joey, I'm so sorry
What if I'd said no?
What if we'd never fell in love?
What if we'd gone slow
Or a little be faster and broken up?
Would I know this hurt?
Would I feel this pain?
Do you know that with all I have left
In my very last breath I will call your name?
Joey, I'm so sorry
Oh, can you hear me?
Joey, I'm so sorry
Were you sad? Were you scared?
Did you whisper a prayer to be free?
Was it quiet and cold? Was it light or too dark to see?
And did you reach for me?
Joey, I'm so sorry
Oh, can you hear me?
Joey, I'm so sorry
Oh, can you hear me?
Joey, I'm so
Joey, I'm so sorry

Joey---, Joey----
Joey, where are you going
Where will you sleep tonight
Will you be alright
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Joey, I really love you
Won't you make here your home so you'll never live alone anymore, oh
We both took a ride on that merry-go-round
We've seen a lot of faces of the same ole' clowns
But let's not be a part of that continuous game
Let's start a new life that will never change
Joey, where are you going
Won't you take me along, your place is my home
Joey---, hoo, hoo
There's no pot of gold at the end of the rainbow
True fortunes are deeper than the world is old so
We've got to dig up and plant love again
Just don't let it vanish, no
And you settle
My Joey, where are you going, where are you going
Dont, don't, dont go, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey
Don't you hear me calling, don't you hear me calling to you
Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey, Joey
Hoo, don't you hear me calling to you, Joey, Joey, Joey
Don't leave me alone, I wanna be with you
I wanna go with you, I wanna be with you, Joey, Joey, Joey
Joey, baby, don't get crazyDetours, fences, I get defensive
I know you've heard it all before, so I don't say it anymoreI just stand by and let you fight your secret warAnd though I used to wonder why I used to cry till I was dryStill sometimes I get a strange pain insideOh, Joey, if you're hurting so am I
Joey, honey, I've got the moneyAll is forgiven, listen, listen
And if I seem to be confused I didn't mean to be with youAnd when you said I scared you, well, I guess you scared me tooBut we got lucky once before and I don't wanna close the doorAnd if you're somewhere out there passed out on the floorOh, Joey, I'm not angry anymore
I come home from workin' hard
I pull up to my yard and there's a man I used to know
He used to love me right
But then we had a little fight and now he's on parole
Well, he's lookin' mighty mean
He'd like to cause a scene
Just hit reverse and pull out slow
And don't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more
And don't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more
He wears his shirt untucked
He's got one eye covered up and he's got a big 'ol 44
He likes to drink 'til late and then he'll break down your gate
And he'll throw you to the floor
Well, he looks me in the eye
He'll hit me 'till I cry
He's tryin' to get inside my door
Don't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more
Don't pay no mind to Joey
Joey don't treat me good no more
Well, well, well, well, well
You can't even stop and shout
'Cause it's all over now
And there ain't nothin' left to say
Don't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more
Don't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more
He saw me with another man
But he did not understand that I grew up with him in the same crib
Joey started flaming red
He didn't hear a word I said and now my brother's got a broken rib
Well, the judge and jury all agreed
Joey did a dirty deed
And 50 years is what the order said
But don't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more
Don't pay no mind to Joey
Joey don't treat me good no more, no more
Well, he didn't understand
The judge raised up his hand
And said,? You'd better leave that girl alone, leave her alone?
Don't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more
Don't pay no mind to Joey
'Cause Joey don't treat me good no more
Don't pay no mind to Joey
Joey don't treat me good no more, no more
That's what I said
I said, don't pay no mind, pay no mind
Pay no mind, pay no mind, pay no mind, pay no mind
[REMY MA:]
He put the gun in my hand
I took my hand and put the gun in my pants
I took my pants and pulled them up on my ass
I got the cash out my pocket dropped it
And got my ass outta dodge
Put into the car started it stepped on the gas
Looked at the dash see 95 really seem fast when you so fucking mad and so fucking high
And you can't stop crying
Oh shit i just ran a stop sign fuck it it's nothing
This nigga got me stressing
I can't believe he got me bugging
Now i'm driving reckless i can't even see and my high beams ain't even helping
But nobody be really using the streets before 7
I got the peddle to the metal like i lost my mind
And i ain't even see the school crossing sign
Car in the faster gear wind blowing in my hair
Seat belt, light blinking, but i don't care
Somebody crossing the street cam outta no where
Ran right into them body flew in the air
Oh my GOD my face already covered with tears
Saying my prayers i ain't even say i swear
I thoguht off of reflex saw blood every where
Mostly around the head of the litlle girl holding a teddy bear
I'm sorry all i can hear is i want my mommy
Then i ain't hear nothing from the little girls body
I'm scared but i can't stop what i'm gon do
First thing the cops gon say was that it was drug influence
They ain't gon understand what this nigga was doin
How he made me drive fast when i should've be cruising
And they probably ain't gon believe that it wasn't they weed and shorty
Just popped up in the middle of the street
And they really gon be hating wit this gun on my waist
And i checked shorty pulse and i don't think she gon make it
Dial 911 or damn should i run
I'm just weighing out my options before some body come
If i stay i go to jail if i run i'll be wrong
This is taking to long
Fuck it i'm gone
[Hook]
HIT AND RUN
Damn i shoulda hit my brakes
HIT AND RUN
Sometimes we all make mistakes
HIT AND RUN
I guess i'm not that heartless
HIT AND RUN
Joey will come, to see your flowers
Joey will come, to while away your hours
She will tell you you're not so good for her
She wouldn't be there if it could be that you were
Joey has loved, never shown her tears
So she may laugh in the autumn of your years
When you're with her you'll wonder if it's true
All that they said of a world without you
Where she may come from, where she may go
Who she may run from, no one will know
Why she was late may trouble you some
Still you wait for Joey to come
Joey will come when once more it looks like snow
Joey will come when it's really time to go
And you may smile when you find that you've been wrong
You thought you found her but she knew you all along
Joey Keys was from my neighborhood
Some would say that he was bad and Joe thought that was good
Joey got the name 'Keys' picking locks
He never really robbed no one; it sure amused the cops
Joey's parents owned a restaurant
After closing time they'd give us almost anything we'd want
I never cared that Joey Keys was slow
Though he couldn't read or write too well but we'd talk all night long.
Come on, come on, come on
What you gonna do with your life?
Come on, come on, come on
Chasing sparks in the nights
His old man said tomorrow is a ride that goes nowhere
But I'll pull some strings, get blackbird wings
And break us out of there
[Chorus:]
Hey Joey
C'mon tell me 'bout your dreams
Tell me all the sights you're gonna see
Tell me who you're gonna be
Hey Joey
You're gonna kiss the girls goodnight
Sometimes you got to stand and fight
It'll be alright
We're gonna find a better life
See Joe was 3 years younger to the day
Acting like a little brother but became my ball and chain
I met this girl named Rhonda, she fell for me
She said, 'I might learn to like him but love ain't built for three.'
[Chorus:]
Hey Joey
C'mon tell me 'bout your dreams
Tell me all the sights you're gonna see
Tell me who you're gonna be
Hey Joey
You're gonna kiss the girls goodnight
Sometimes you got to stand and fight
It'll be alright
Hey Joey
News gets around in this fading neighborhood
The old man lost the restaurant
He drinks more than he should
It's time for Joey keys to do some good
Pick the lock off our lives, let's get out of here like we always said we would
[Chorus:]
Hey Joey
C'mon tell me 'bout your dreams
Tell me all the sights you're gonna see

Find a better life

What you gonna do with your life?
Come on, come on, come on
Chasing sparks in the nights
His old man said tomorrow is a ride that goes nowhere
But I'll pull some strings, get blackbird wings
And break us out of there
Gentlemen, start your axes
It was winter, it was cold
I was lost in the world of my own
I was bent double at the end of the road
Pissing my suicide note in the snow
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'd stopped the world and I was getting off
When a white flash nearly made my heart stop
I said "this is either Jesus, aliens or cops"
It was neither, it was Joey Dunlop
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So hats off
For Joey Dunlop
One day you'll go to the great big bar in the sky
Everybody's free, everybody flies
The greats gonna be there, you wouldn't wanna miss it
Me, George Best and Hurricane Higgins
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So hats off
For Joey Dunlop
Auh!
Yeah!
So hats off, hats off
