The Lyrics
The 9 season "Facts of Life" was a spin-off of the 8 season "Diff'rent Strokes" whose child stars Dana Plato, Todd Bridges, and Gary Coleman all met with disaster after the series was cancelled. They all exhibited bad behavior and judgement, arrests, and two of them (Plato and Coleman) have died. Only Bridges remains of the trio. The show is considered cursed...
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
First to go, Dana Plato, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Posed as a fox (in Playboy), they airbrushed her box,
And then she did porno!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
First to go, Dana Plato, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
She robbed a store and then prescription forged,
Was arrested as you know!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
First to go, Dana Plato, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Drugs and more, died at 34,
A terrible way to go!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Next in line, was Coleman‘s time, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Awarded money, declared bankruptcy,
Was SHORT on cash you know!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Next in line, was Coleman‘s time, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Punched a woman, became a felon,
Abuse on video!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Next in line, was Coleman‘s time, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Later hit his head, next day was dead,
A terrible way to go!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Still alive, it’s Bridges’ time, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Arrested for drugs, was seen as thug,
Blamed it all on Plato!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Still alive, it’s Bridges’ time, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Made a come-back, cleaned up his act
Is the curse lifted? Who knows???
First to go, Dana Plato, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Posed as a fox (in Playboy), they airbrushed her box,
And then she did porno!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
First to go, Dana Plato, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
She robbed a store and then prescription forged,
Was arrested as you know!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
First to go, Dana Plato, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,
Drugs and more, died at 34,
A terrible way to go!
The curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“, the curse of “Diff‘rent Strokes“,

It can't be all cursed, since Conrad Bain and Charlotte Rae are both still alive.
But they've gotten really old!
Makes a lotta' sense...and well said
This was really good, RA! Blamed it on Plato? :( She was cute, back in the day. As for Conrad Bain...most boring actor since Fred MacMurray!
Peregrin, yeah he reminded me of that cartoon dog "Droopy" ;-D
A Hunting we will go a Hunting we will go catch Quail,Take out to Sail Then Let Him Go
