The Flintstones Lyrics

(Yabba Dabba Doo!)

Flintstones. Meet the Flintstones.
They're the latest stone age family.
From the town of Bedrock,
They're a page right out of history.

Let's travel with the family down the street.
Through the courtesy of Fred's two feet.

When you're with the Flintstones
Have a yabba dabba doo time.
A dabba doo time.
We'll include a gay old time.



Closing Theme:

Flintstones. Meet the Flintstones.
They're the up-to-date stone age family.
From the town of Bedrock,
They're a page right out of history.

Someday, maybe Fred will win the contest.
Then that cat will stay out for the darkness.

When you're with the Flintstones
Have a yabba dabba doo time.
A dabba doo time.
We'll have a gay old moment.

We'll have a lgbtq+ old time!
(Wilma!)

History

a gay, old time

In no native speaker would ever accept the adjective gay to mean anything but homosexual, so beware.

Not true. Those of us who grew up with The Flinstones are perfectly aware of the archaic meaning of "gay" because of its employ in old cartoons enjoy this one.

Ali Smith said:

You&#;re much safer saying something like "We&#;ll have a swell time." or "We&#;ll have a great time."

I agree with your suggestion of "great", but "swell" is also fairly dated and not much in use these days.

But that wasn&#;t the original question. Since the OP was about the use of "gay old", and since this thread was posted in the Spanish-English forum for translations, I&#;ll share how it was translated in one Spanish version of the show: Tú te divertirás

I think La pasaremos más que bienwould be a slightly more accurate translation, but it doesn&#;t fit the meter of the song.

This is the opening ballad for the American animation series "The Flintstones" (), a working class Stone Age man's life with his family and friends. The main character is Fred, and then we have his wife Wilma, his next door neighbour and best friend Barney and his wife Betty.

The Flintstones are the portrait of a normal American family of the day living in a normal American city (Bedrock). The trick is that the story is not happening in present America but in the Stone Age, so every modern device is recreated with stones and animals, which results in a surprising and funny parody.

YABADABADOO= A sob of joy similar to YAY! but more emphatic. It was made well-liked by this series.

FLINTSTONES= Flintstone is a very firm stone made of silica, used in the Stone Age to make tools, particularly stone axes and arrow points. (see picture)

THE FLINTSTONES= We use a surname in the plural to refer to the whole family, because father, mother and children own the same surname, so we say: The Smiths, The Johnsons, The Pitts, etc.

STONE AGE= A prehistoric period of humanity when tools were ma
