The theme song for the movie MASH as well as the TV show is called "Suicide is Painless" and originally sung by Johnny Mandel. The original song is longer than the theme, but the theme lyrics are:

Through early morning fog I see

visions of the things to be

the pains that are withheld for me

I realize and I can see

That suicide is painless

It brings on many changes

and I can take or leave it if I please

The game of life is hard to play

I'm gonna lose it anyway

The losing card I'll someday lay

so this is all I have to say

Suicide is painless

It brings on many changes

and I can take or leave it if I please

The sword of time will pierce our skins

it doesn't hurt when it begins

but as it works its way on in

the pain grows stronger....watch it grin

Suicide is painless

It brings on many changes

and I can take or leave it if I please

A brave man once requested me

to answer questions that are key

'is it to be or not to be'

and I replied 'oh why ask me?'

'Cause suicide is painless

it brings on many changes

and I can take or leave it if I please

.... and you can do the same thing if you choose

What is a good theme song for a show?

A good theme song for a show is catchy/memorable and gives the audience a short history or idea of what they will be seeing. For instance, Gilligan's song tells you why the 7 castaways ended up on the island. For Rawhide, the themesong gives you some idea of what the drovers, who moved cattle to the railheads, were like. For MASH the theme song references the climatic scene of the movie, even though that event did not happen on the television show.

To the best of my knowledge the British actor David Niven never did anything resembling a juvenile Television ( or Telly) program! It sounds like it could be something like the Cool Ghoul- John Zacherle- pronounced like Zachary but Zak-err -Lee). Monster Mash is a song, not a television program.
