In the second series they almost kissed   But in the third it all went a bit doolally   In the fourth year they brought it a new director   Who was prone to flights of fancy      In the fifth year they tried to steady the ship   The old writers were brought in with fatter wage slips   But the innocence was gone and by the time they kissed   Everyone knew there was never gonna be no series six      But series one would always be a classic      By the time they kissed   Everyone had switched over channels   Leaving the imaginary lovers entangled   And a show that had long been canceled      But their love was too strong to be written off   By some writer's rule of thumb   And away from his imaginings they were now free   To live their lives on their own      No more budget constraints could hold back their characters   In favour of CGI and two bit actors   No disparaging plot lines to twist anymore   Just to satisfy the committee and their hunger for the ratings war      They could live their lives the way they want   And if they want   They could let their lives unravel   They could let their love unravel      By the time they kissed   Everyone had switched over channels
