Lyrics from WITCH ONE (Episode 62)
by John P. McCann

Parodies of songs from Disney's Beauty and the Beast

The Judge (parody of Belle)

Judge   : Good day, Sykes
          Let's go hunt for witches
          Dig them out
          Of their secret niches
          They could be cats or people
          Which is up to me to say.
          Good day!
          Good day!
          Good day!

Baker   : The judge is happy when he hunts for a witch
Wife    : He couldn't find one in a ditch
Shepherd: But if he thinks that you're a witch
Baker   : He'll burn you up with pitch
BW+S    : A dangerous jerk, the judge.

Judge   : (spoken) Good morning, Witch!
Hazel   : Err, me?
Judge   : No, you old wombat -- the shopkeeper!
(Witch Hazel walks away, whistling innocently)
Keeper  : But, judge, you know me! I'm no witch!
Judge   : I know you're holding a broomstick, and only witches
          have broomsticks!  Lougal, Taylor! Arrest him!

BW+S    : So long, shopkeeper! Taking him was all wrong
          We'll be accused before too long
Baker   : Before the judge is done with that
Shepherd: He'll arrest a kitty cat
Judge   : Cats are spirits of the Evil One
BW+S    : Salem's really not much fun
          We got troubles by the ton
          From the judge!

There's Nothing Quite Like a Cat (parody of Gaston)
Rita : Who can hunt like a cat?
       Not a dog or a bat
       Who can stalk a big bird
       Or a rat like a cat?
       Other creatures, they're half as cunning
       Slick as a greased-up snake
       Go and watch any wolf or coyote
       They can't find fish knee-deep in a lake.

Judge: Who hunts cats like the judge?
       Witches' spawn, like the judge?
       Those tools of the devil
       Kitty cats, like the judge?
Rita : Who hunts like a cat?
Judge: I hunt down all cats!
Rita : We're keen so that's that
Judge: I hate them like rats!
Rita : There's nothing quite like...
R+J  : ...a cat!

---
Still There's Me and You (parody of Beauty and the Beast)
Rita : So long, Salem, Mass.
       Time to say bye-bye
       I almost got drowned
       Chased right out of town
       Boy, did my fur fly.
       Boston, here we come
       Home of beans and tea
       Maybe they need pets
       Don't take any bets
       Still, there's you and me.
Runt : (spoken) That sure was pretty, Rita. I hope we don't get sued.

Lyrics from THE WARNERS' 65th ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL (Episode 65)
by Paul Rugg

The Warners Are Back

Liza   : For 65 years we've laughed at their mayhem
         Here are the words we use to explain them:

(singer/dancers join Liza)
 
Yakko: (spoken at table) Uh oh. I was afraid of this.
 
Singers: Silly, bizarre, loony, mad, and kooky
         Crazy, wigged out, giddy, bad, and goofy
         Yakko, Wakko and Dot
         They're hip; they're cool; they're hot.

(YW+D hurl)
 
Singers: They're Warners
         Fabulous Warners
         Wonderful Warners
         Look out; the Warners are back!
 
(Singers drop Liza. Crowd applauds.)
 
Yakko: These people would clap at anything.
 
(Wakko gets an idea and climbs on table)
 
Wakko: Hey, everybody! Wanna hear me play Yankee Doodle with my armpits?
 
(Silence, apart from crickets)
 
Yakko: Ehhh, almost anything.
 
Singers: Yes, the Warners are back
         They're really the most
         Now here he is
         Our fabulous host!

Buddy's Song
 
Buddy: I'm a-frolickin' in the outback
       Just as chipper as I can be
       Got no cares and got no worries
       I'm happy Outback Buddy!
 
[later]
       ...
YW&D : Shh! (WHAM!) We smashed Outback Buddy!
 
[later]
       ...
YW&D : (WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! WHAM! WHAM!) We smashed Postman Buddy!

Make a Gookie (parody of Feelin' Groovy)
Wakko: Be cool and smell a flower
       Make love, not war, and shower
       Kiss the world, and be groovy
       Go ahead and make a Gookie!
Y+D  : Ba da ba da ba da ba
       Make a Gookie
YW+D : Ba da ba da ba da ba
       Make a Gookie!

Hurtin' Our Feet (parody of Stayin' Alive)
 
Disco: Ow, ow, ow, ow
       Hurtin' our feet
       Hurtin' our feet
       Ow, ow, ow, ow
       Hurtin' our feet!
       It should be clear by the types of clothes we choose
       We're disco kids with disco shoes
       They may be cool; they may look neat
       But wearing 'em sure hurts our feet
       Ow, ow, ow, ow
       Hurtin' our feet!

Lyrics from TAKE MY SIBLINGS, PLEASE (Episode 66)
by Paul Rugg

The Hunk From Upumema (parody of The Girl From Ipanema)

Dot: Tall and dark and really handsome
     The hunk from Upumema's real dumb
     And when he strolls, each one he strolls by goes
     "Euuaaagheuulgh!"

Lyrics from PIGEON ON THE ROOF (Episode 67)
by Deanna Oliver

Scorsese (parody of Traditions)

Squit : As far back as I can remember, the Goodfeathers had the
        best perch in the neighborhood, because we perched on
        the statue of the greatest filmmaker in the world --
        Scorsese!

GoodFs: Scorsese...
        Scorsese!
        Cooooooooooo!
        Scorsese!
[joined by the Girlfeathers; all repeat the verse]

Squit : (spoken) Without the statue of Scorsese, our lives would be
        as slippery as ... a Pigeon on the Roof!

[In silhouette, Pesto dances on a chimney, slips and falls in.]

Egg-hatcher, Egg-hatcher (parody of Matchmaker, Matchmaker)
Sasha : This is the deal, Goodfeathers: We decided we wanna get
        married and be egg-hatchers.
GoodFs: EGG-HATCHERS??
Pesto : You wanna be an egg-hatcher?
Kiki  : Uh huh -- an egg-hatcher.

Kiki  : Egg-hatcher, egg-hatcher
        I wanna be
        Perched on a nest
        So feathery.
Lana  : Egg-hatcher, egg-hatcher
        I'm in the mood
        To sit on on my tush
        And brood.

Kiki  : Oh, Pesto
        Ask me to marry.
Lana  : Oh, Bobby
        Say the word and we're wed.
Sasha : Oh, Squit
        Coo! (whack!) Make a commitment.
        I want to be married before I'm dead.

GirlFs: Egg-hatcher, egg-hatcher
        Don't wanna date
        'Cause marriage is best
        Build us a nest
        Don't make us wait
        We want eggs to incubate.
GoodFs: Aaaaaagh!!! (they run away)

If I Were the Godpigeon (parody of If I Were a Rich Man)
Pesto : A beakful of sand is not comical -- is that comical?
Bobby : The Godpigeon thinks it's amusing; it's amusing -- ya know
        what I'm sayin'?
Squit : That's one of the advantages of being Godpigeon, Pesto.
[He and Bobby leave.]
Pesto : Coo... I wish I was the Godpigeon.

Pesto : If I were the Godpigeon
        Cooey cooey cooey fettucini cream sauce parmisan!
        All the time I'd "Huhyughyughi!"
        If I were the Godpigeon! Ba da bing!
        Birds would kiss my toesies
        Schmooey schmooey schmooey mostaccioli Vito Corleone!
        Lord, show them I wasn't born to lose
        Make me boss of all them pigie-poos
        I'd make offers no one can refuse
        If I were the Godpigeon! Yeah!

Pesto : (spoken) Maybe I'll do a little COO d'etat and take over the flock.

Coo Coo Quack (parody of Mazel Tov)
Pesto  : I had a dream, and you were there, and YOU were there!
Bobby  : Alright already, Toto; tell us the dream.
Pesto  : OK OK OK OK OK OK. It started when I was perched out on a graveyard.

Zombies: A feather on your head
         Coo coo quack! Coo coo quack!
         We are the grateful dead
         Coo coo quack! Coo coo quack!
         We feathered up a nest
         For our distinguished guest
         Hello, Godpigeon Pesto.
[The zombie birds kiss Pesto's feet.]
GoodFs : *"Godpigeon"?*

Squit  : You got it all wrong, zombies
Bobby  : He's just Pesto
Squit  : He's not Godpigeon, zombies
Pesto  : Although someday I hope to be.
[The Godpigeon comes forth from his grave, a zombie.]
GodP   : *Cooooo! Bauuugh!*
GoodFs : *Aaaaaaaaagh!*

GodP   : Umazeh booeyai!
Zombies: He says "You croaked me!"
GodP   : Ahjehbahchaiheyah!

Lana : Yeah...
Bobby: Erm... Oh, Lana...

Bobby: Do you want me?
Lana : Do I -- huh?
Bobby: Do you want me?
Lana : Do I want him?
       The truth of it is
       He's mortified
       Petrified
       Terrified
       To say "I love you
       Be my bride
       I need you by my side"
Bobby: Do you want me?
Lana : Oh it's up to you.
Bobby: Then ba da bing bip bip ba doo!
B+L  : OK, so we're betrothed

Bobby : The Godpigeon says that it is a statue of Regis Philbin.
Pesto : There is no way I am gonna sit on Regis Philbin's head!

COO (Episode 67)
by Deanna Oliver

Parody of Cool from West Side Story

Pesto: Would someone please explain what that was all about?
       That had to be the most confusing, mixed-up, cockamamie script
       I've ever read in my entire beakin' life! [Afazoul!?]
Bobby: 'ey, 'o! Coo! Pesto! 'o! Coo down, bird!

Bobby: Bird, bird
       Crazy bird
       Stay coo
       Bird!
       Beak it
       Buzz it
       Easy
       Does it.
       Turn off the juice
       Bird!
       Go, bird, go!
       But not like a dodo.
       Coo, bird!
       Play it coo, bird.
       Real coo.
Pesto: Coo!
       Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh heh ...
