Chairie's Song on Pee Wee's Playhouse

.

I have just recently discovered that a jolly song I liked was sung by a popular artist whom I also admired!

The song is the Pee Wee's Playhouse Theme:



The writer of the lyrics (at least; possibly also the rest of the song, together with Paul Reubens and Mark Mothersbaugh) is identified as George McGrath, and he says that it was performed by Cyndi Lauper!  See below for comments presumably from McGrath himself about the writing of the song.

As many of the comments on YouTube point out, it was far from being a little sound clip; it was a 2.5 minute song, and a good one, providing an important part of the atmosphere of the show.
