Yes, this is the song I got my screenname from

http://youtube.com/watch?v=bcLazPauA1c

There's got to be a morning after
If we can hold on through the night
We have a chance to find the sunshine
Let's keep on looking for the light

Oh, can't you see the morning after?
It's waiting right outside the storm
Why don't we cross the bridge together
And find a place that's safe and warm?

It's not too late, we should be giving
Only with love can we climb
It's not too late, not while we're living
Let's put our hands out in time

There's got to be a morning after
We're moving closer to the shore
I know we'll be there by tomorrow
And we'll escape the darkness
We won't be searching anymore

There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after)
There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after)
There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after)
There's got to be a morning after
(There's got to be a morning after)
(repeat and fade out)

Yeah, I hear the episode is a spoof.

Haven't seen it, though.

That it is. And I first heard it on a disc of movie themes.

I first heard it as a kid way back in the early eighties on a Reader's Digest album set of 12 records. (they were huge boxes). I loved it then and used to thrash it a bit.

I remember it came out in '72, right after the election. As a kid, I thought it was cool that they let McGovern's daughter sing about that...;)

I've since learned different...;)

I don't remember any of that. But that could be because I wasn't born until 81
