Man, that 'DONGDONG' is as recognizable as my alarm clock and just as annoying. *shudders* I avoid Law and Order for that very reason.

my wife can find an episode of Law and Order on at any given time of the day. My god, that's all she'd watch if given the choice.

One for all and all for one, Muskehounds are always ready
One for all and all for one, helping everybody
One for all and all for one, it's a pretty story.
Sharing everything with fun. That's the way to be.

One for all and all for one, Muskerhounds are always steady.
One for all and all for one, helping everybody.
One for all and all for one may sound pretty corny,
If you've got a problem chum, think how it could be.

Talada talada, they cross their hearts and pray,
Talada talada, they cross their swords night and day,
Talada talada, they drink a beer and swear they're faithful to the king

Talada talada, no matter what you say
Talada talada, they're never far away
Talada talada, they're always ready to fight or to sing.

One for all and all for one, Muskehounds are always steady
One for all and all for one, helping everybody
One for all and all for one may sound pretty corny,
If you've got a problem chum, think how it could be.

Got no way of knowin'
Drivin' on the road to nowhere.

Checkin' out the women
