>>>Want to know something? All these years I figured "Untrained Voice" got his name as a kind of inside joke used in describing Barney's singing voice. ....then John Masters asked him about his trained voice. That's how I thought the "Untrained Voice" came up with his name and I thought is was very clever. But it wasn't that way at all. His "Untrained Voice" name had nothing at all to do with that episode. Laura Lee Hobbs (who did you think wrote this) Dime Store Clerk and Gold Truck Watcher Extraordinaire<<<<<
And Laura Lee...all these year's you've been absolutely right!! The idea did come from when John Masters said "Barney I didn't know you had a Trained Voice"...but I just applied it to writing, and the fact that I'm an unprofessional writer, and, like I said earlier, "Untrained Voice" made more sense than "Untrained Writer"..but since we talk so much about singing, and caterwauling, and enunciatin' and breathin' and everything, it now applies to both! Untrained as a Writer--Untrained as a Singer--that's me..The Untrained Voice...so clever or not, that is still the source!! Please pass that around at the Dime Store so you don't confuse folks with your recent misstatement. Now let me show you what an Untrained Voice is good for... WE-Theyyy--We---They Wee---they---I O UUU I OO UUU (join in now girls) May-berry sidewalks, Quiet sidewalks Dressed in Gold Truck Watching style. In the air There's a feeling of some-thing BIG!! Children laughing (at Barney) People asking (when's it coming?) Gold Trucks traveling mile after mile And on ev'ry street corner you'll hear, Silver bells, Blabbermouth tells It's Gold Truck time in May--berry. (Mr. Schwamp is nodding vigorously) Everyone Knows, Barney's whistle blows. Soon it will be Gold Truck Day. Light bulbs popping, Gold Trucks stopping It's a cha-o-tic scene Gawkers sent home without a look at the treasure. Watch the driver's lunch. As the crowds bunch. This is Lau-ra Lee Hobbs' Big Day! And above all this Chaos You'll hear..., Silver bells, Andy tells "It's Decoy time in May-berry" Shazam-a-ling, A Decoy thing When will it be Gold Truck day??? Will it come again? Lets Ask the T-men It worth about se-ven million Above all this wishing you'll hear Truck of Gold, The decoy thing is getting old Please come back to May-berry Tinkl-ling, Dime Store Cash Registers Ring But when will it be Gold Truck Day? Hey Thanks for all the insightful answers about what went on at Mrs. Wi-leys!!
