I'm pretty sure he's talking about 30 Rock, the NBC show with Tina Fey and Alec Baldwin, not 3rd Rock From The Sun.

Along with all the Adult Swim ones, Lucy: the Daughter of the Devil had some cool ones:

I don't want to go to sleep
Lucy won't you come with me?
Let's go paint the town red
Let's go paint the town red

All these people bother me
Let's go on a killing spree
Let's go paint the town red
Let's go paint the town red

ooo-oo-oo-ooo-oo-oo-ooo

Yeah, there's a lot of good ones. I wish they'd come out with a DVD already.

Also, if you two are interested, the show's unofficial website has audio downloads available of a lot of the songs from the episodes:

I've been hooked on Six Feet Under lately, and the theme by Thomas Newman (who works with Sam Mendes and scored American Beauty and Road to Perdition, among others) I always liked.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYAe0qwg9Yw

It sort of has this mystical, almost fairy-tale feel to it, which to me matches the dark sense of humour the series always had.
