Why did they changed lyrics of the opening theme song from Season 1 to Season 2?

I liked the season 1 theme, Charlotte wasn’t the best singer though so I’m glad she didn’t sing in the intro anymore

Probably they wanted to change everything on the show after season 1. The set changed, the cast changed, characters changed and the opening theme changed too (except for the when the world never seems line)

Yeah, it wasn't just the lyrics, they changed most of the music!

CHARLOTTE RAE

I thought CHARLOTTE RAE sang quite well on the Xmas episode from season 6 (she was more of an opera kind of singer than pop though) but she was definitely a much better actress hee hee!

Charlotte definitely could sing, as we've seen from songs on her albums. But she was singing the way her kooky DS maid character, Mrs. Garrett, would sing. I have no doubt that how she sang the FOL theme song was exactly how the producers wanted her to sing it.

What do you mean? She was a soloist on Songs I Taught My Mother, but she also sang on The Threepenny Opera, The Littlest Revue, and also appeared on The Songs of Rodgers and Hart and Rodgers and Hart Revisited.
