The Lyrics

With the end of Lost, Tuesdays are no long an oasis of television programming. If you're not a Lostie, the references below will be, er, lost on you. If you are a Lostie, I hope you enjoy it.
And now,
The smoke has cleared
The mystic place,
Locale uncertain
It’s lost
Then reappears
At time they chase
Its inner workin’s

The sea
A moon that’s full
They walk the beach
And sometimes sideways
Now bored,
Oh how I’ll miss
That show on Tuesday.

To Jack,
I say adieu
The hands that mend
And fight infection
And to Locke
I’ll miss him too
He changed his mood
Through resurrection

For Jin
And Sun, of course
My eyes got wet
An Asian bouquet
My heart,
My heart will miss
That show on Tuesday.

Yes, I saw times
That Sawyer stewed
Could he have Kate
And Julie too?
The Hurley curls
(He's somewhat stout)
Heed Jacob's call
"Don’t let it out!”
The island squalls
An hour enthralls
That show on Tuesday.

Sayid
And Claire were fried
Their minds and wills
Were not their choosing
And how
Whitmore had tried
His methods all
So confusing

And Ben
That little rat
He lost his way
Then took the high way
That show
Was good to me
Until last Sunday.

I understand.
No, not the plot
A plane had crashed
Yes, that I got.
The ending brings
A gray reveal
Just what occurred?
I sense surreal
Who cares, who knows?
I loved the show
Got Lost on Tuesdays.

Good parody, but here's a smack upside the head for not watching "NCIS" on Tuesday nights. Incidentally, Mike Pacholek told me to give you a 5 on this. Make sure it doesn't get... you know...

I've never seen Lost, but I'm betting 5-5-5 that you did the finale justice. ;D

Clever way to send off a show that has been canceled. Now what can we do with As the World Turns which is ending after more than fifty years?
Patrick - May 25, 2010 - Report this comment
Never watched the show. After what CBS did to "Jericho" and ABC did to "The Nine", I didn't want to get invested in characters and stories that would get pulled before their time. The little bit I ever saw of "Lost" seemed to veer off into the supernatural, which is not my thing, but seems to be quite popular with audiences. Maybe some year I'll get the DVD's and find out what I missed.

LJG- Silly me, I'm just a probie! We do watch the shows, cos um, you know, Zeba and Abby...the wife likes, well, Gibbs.
OMR- Worth a look, Old Man, but prepare to be baffled. We all were!
2Eagle- As The World Turns, hmm...never much of a soap fan. Course, I never bathe...
Patrick- It's worth a weekend if you like extended character studies and imaginative storytelling. Might be worth a look at Netflix!
Thanks everyone for the notes and votes.

I watched it a few times, I couldn't get into it, but this was a good parody all the same. 5's.

Thanks, Lee. Much appreciated.

You perfectly capture my sense of longing now that the show has ended. And I love the vague sense of confusion about the ending. That'll leave us plenty to talk about for years to come... Well done!

Thanks again, Bilbo. Loved that show to death, and though a lot of people hated the ending, I thought it was vague enough to keep conversations going for quite a while. I'll be buying or renting the full BluRay season sets at my earliest opportunity!
