LYRICS
by David Cohen
Making his way to the links each day
Says everything he’s not
Taking a break to curb his fury
Will not help a lotShouldn’t he really go away?
No more crimes where he steals our rights
That ship must never sail
Guess his little angel thinks
Her dad might go to jail
And his third divorce will cost some dough
Someday he’ll have to go
Where everybody knows he’s lame
But ol’ Bubba’s glad he came
He’s gonna be where he can see
The dress codes all the same
And he’s gonna sport a number but not a name
Rolls out of bed, to a cold metal head
While mornings start first light
All his kids ran off to Europe
They never even write
And his cellmates name is “Brother Earle”
We’re glad there's one place in the world
Where everybody knows his game
And they won’t be sad he came
He’s gonna go where people know
He’s been stripped of his fame
And he's gonna sport a number but not a name
Where everybody knows his game
He’ll see his life go down the drain
Where everybody knows he’s lame
And no one cares that he’s insane
Where everybody knows he’s lame
Where all his talk will be in vain
Where everybody knows he’s lame
And no one’s ever mad he came
ABOUT THE ORIGINAL SONG
"Where Everybody Knows Your Name" is the theme song from the television sitcom Cheers, as well as the debut single for Gary Portnoy. The song was written by Portnoy and Judy Hart-Angelo, and performed by Portnoy in 1982. Shortly after the premiere of Cheers, Portnoy went back into the studio to record a longer version of the song that made the U.S. and British pop charts.
The full-length version was made available on Portnoy's 2004 album "Keeper." In January 2013, Argentum Records released a five-song EP entitled Cheers: Music from the TV Series which also includes Portnoy's original demo version, as well as several earlier attempts by Portnoy and Angelo at composing the theme.
By 1981, New York songwriter Gary Portnoy had already written songs for Air Supply ("I'll Never Get Enough of You") and Dolly Parton ("Say Goodnight"). One night in the summer of that same year, his friend Judy Hart happened to be seated next to a Broadway producer at dinner. Upon finding out that Hart was working for a music publisher, he asked her if she could recommend someone to compose the score for a new musical he was producing. On a whim, Hart, who had never written a song, approached Portnoy, who had never written for the theater. Together they set out to compose the words and music for the musical named Preppies.
In the spring of 1982, Judy, now using her full married name of Judy Hart-Angelo, sent a tape of Preppies' opening number "People Like Us" to a friend in California, who then passed it on to television producers Glen and Les Charles. Upon hearing it they each felt that with a lyric re-write "People Like Us" would be the perfect theme song for their upcoming NBC sitcom, Cheers.
Portnoy and Hart-Angelo then wrote and submitted two more potential themes for Cheers. One of them, entitled "Another Day", contained a lyric line "There are times when it's fun to take the long way home" that greatly appealed to the Charles brothers. But overall, the song missed the mark and was passed over. The fourth song began with a catchy intro followed by simple alternating chords on a piano.
The original opening verse,
"Singin' the blues when the Red Sox lose,
it's a crisis in your life.
On the run 'cause all your girlfriends
wanna be your wife.
And the laundry ticket's in the wash."
was changed to . . .
"Makin' your way in the world today
takes everything you've got.
Takin' a break from all your worries
sure would help a lot.
Wouldn’t you like to get away?"
After several months of mulling over possible outside singers, the producers eventually asked Gary Portnoy to record the vocal for the opening credits of their new series. The chorus of the song is six of Portnoy’s vocals that he recorded one on top of the other to create the "group sound" of the hook.
