Track 1: Variety Speak

Yakko: In Hollywood they have a different language that they speak
It's spoken by those folks who went to school for just one week
Dot : It's found inside Variety, a magazine they use
Y+D : And no one understands it when they read the movie news.

Dot : Like Hicks nix pix but the flick needs fix
Yakko: Means someone made a movie that bombed
Dot : The veeps in charge are now at large
Yakko: Means everyone involved is gone.

Dot : The plot conflicts; no beautiful chicks
Yakko: So it's coming out on video soon
Dot : They're taking their licks
'Cause the critics say nix
Yakko: And the editors are gonna try to save it in the mix.

Dot : But the "stock sees green" on page thirteen
Yakko: Means Disney's up a nickel a share
Dot : Stallone cuts deal for a major reel
Yakko: Means Rocky number six, so beware.

Dot : If you want the poop
Yakko: Or you need the scoop
Y+D : On Hollywood town this week
You're gonna have to learn to talk that Variety Speak!

Girls: Bah ba doo bah, ba daba doo bah
Bah ba doo bah, ba daba doo bah

Dot : Boffo smash makes Warner cash
Yakko: Means there's gonna be a sequel next year
Dot : Paramount hurts and they're losing their shirts
Yakko: Means Schwarzenegger's doing King Lear.

Dot : Oliver Stone does next Home Alone
Yakko: Means he's getting paid an arm and a leg
The budget goes crunch
Dot : But his name packs punch
Yakko: So they called up the accountants and they're gonna do lunch!

Dot : Well, the ratings smile on the O.J. trial
Yakko: Means a movie of the week to premiere
Dot : Universal cuts deal with Mister Spiel
Yakko: To do a hundred thousand movies a year.

YW+D : You gotta play it smart
If you want to be part
Of the crowd that's hip and chic
You're gonna have to learn to talk that Variety Speak!

Girls: Bah ba doo bah, ba daba doo bah
Bah ba doo bah, ba daba doo bah

Yakko: Normal talk makes producers walk
Y+D : You might as well speak Greek
You're gonna have to learn...
Wakko: Or the meeting will adjourn...
YW+D : Unless, my friend, you learn that Variety Speak!

Girls: Bah ba doo bah, ba daba doo bah
Bah ba doo bah, ba daba doo bah

YW+D : Bah-doop-bah-doop-bah-doop-bahhh-dah!

Track 2: Monkey Song

One Monday morning, I got up late
And there were these monkeys, outside the gate
The guard tried to stop them but he had no luck
The monkeys got free and they ran amok

I don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do
-Don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do
I don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do
-Don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do

My office was run by the studio nurse
I came downstairs und what could be worse?
The monkeys was there doing a crazy dance
They poured buggies in my underpants

I don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do
-Don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do
Monkeys dance, then I dance too
-Don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do

I ran outside to get a stick
But I'm telling you, friends, those monkeys was quick
'Cause when I returned, much to my disgrace
Those monkeys had the nurse in a mad embrace

Nurse: I don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do
Yakko: For a nickel, I'll give you a clue
Dot: I didn't know your eyes were blue
I don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do

I went to me bath for a shower and shave
Them monkeys gonna put me into me grave
The entire bathroom was laid to waste
And they shaved my head with minty toothpaste

I don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do
-Don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do
They is crazy nutso, I'm telling you
-Don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do

Well by this time I was feeling dread
They was using a shoe brush to shine me head
I asked them to leave but they stayed around
They pulled the chain and I went down

I don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do
-Don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do
Call my lawyer, I'm ready to sue
-Don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do

Well me patients ran out and I'm telling you sure
Tomorrow I show those monkeys the door
And if they don't leave, I'm inviting you
To my house for dumplings and monkey stew

I don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do
-Don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do
Now I'm in the stew, oh pooh!
-Don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do

Watch out for monkeys, I'm telling you
-Don't know what to say, the monkeys won't do
We're not monkeys, we're just cuckoo
Don't know what to say, the Warners won't do

Track 4: Pinky & the Brain

They're Pinky and The Brain
Yes, Pinky and The Brain
One is a genius
The other's insane.
They're laboratory mice
Their genes have been spliced
They're dinky
They're Pinky and The Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain
Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain.

Before each night is done
Their plan will be unfurled
By the dawning of the sun
They'll take over the world.

They're Pinky and The Brain
Yes, Pinky and The Brain
Their twilight campaign
Is easy to explain.
To prove their mousey worth
They'll overthrow the Earth
They're dinky
They're Pinky and The Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain
Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Narf!

Track 5: Cheese Roll Call

Pinky: A world of cheeses
Deliciously made for you and me
Flavors like Provolone and Brie
Each with its own ethnicity.
So many cheeses
Are available all around the world for you to eat
Especially good with crackers and meat
A nice yummy treat.

Thousands of cheeses
The texture of some can be real gooey
Others are quite firm and chewy
Some are better when mildewy.
Bountiful cheeses
When you take a big whiff a few
Will make you want to spew
Especially strong is the cheese Remoudou
A real stinkeroo.

It's incredible just how many kinds there are
From countries near and far
It's really quite bizarre.
Now from the mouths of cheeses big and small
We proudly present to you
The cheese roll call.

Cheddam: G'day! I am Australian Cheddam, an
innocuous, golden yellow, rindless block
inspired by Cheddar and Edam!
*
Pinky: Welcome, Cheddam!

Wensleydale: I am the British cheese Wensleydale, lightly
 pressed and smooth textured with a subtle
 milky flavor which is clean and refreshing.

Pinky: Welcome, Wensleydale!

Edelpilzkäse: I am the German cheese Edelpilzkäse, a fine,
blue-veined cheese with a pale ivory paste
and very dark veins traveling vertically
through me.

Pinky: Welcome, Edelpil... Edel... oh, willkommen!

Brie: I am the French cheese Brie, a soft,
unpressed, naturally drained cow's milk with
white rind flora, molded into large flat disks
and ripened for three to four weeks.

Pinky: Welcome cheeses! I want to eat you all!

Pinky: Oh, how I like my cheeses
Cheese from around the world
Cheese is the taste that pleases
Cheese from around the world (sing with me, cheeses!)

Cheeses: Oh, how I like my cheeses
Cheese from around the world (everybody!)
Everyone: Cheese is the taste that pleases
Cheese from around the world

Around this great big world
Around this big cheese world
Around this great big world
Around this big -- cheese -- world!

Pinky: Ummm... yummy! NARF!

Track 6: Multiplication

MissF: Yakko...
Yakko: Yes, Miss Flamiel?
MissF: I want you to multiply 47 times 83.

Yakko: Seven times three is twenty-one
Which as you know is just two tens plus one
And so we put the one right here
And we carry the two one left
To the top of the ten's place right next door
And we put it on top of the number four
Which is really four tens that we multiply
Times three in the one's place, and that's why
We now have twelve, which we add to the two
That we carried to get fourteen.

See how easy that was?

Oh ho, it's multiplication
It's math education
Hey, Albert Einstein said that it's so easy to do
It's simple, it's breezy
It's fun and it's easy
Just buy a calculator; you can multiply too.

And now, the second digit...

Seven times eight is fifty-six
Which as you know is just five tens plus six
And so we put the six right here
In the ten's place, left of the one
Carry the five, like we did before
To the top of the ten's place, next to the four
Then multiply that four times eight
To get thirty-two, see isn't this great?
Then we add the five that we carried before
To get thirty-seven, then add once more
Straight down to get three thousand, nine hundred and one.

Isn't this swell?

Oh, let's give multiplication
A standing ovation
Isaac Newton multiplied a couple times, too
Times two, times two, times two
It's simple, it's breezy
It's fun and it's easy
So buy a calculator
And study this stuff later
Maybe someday you can multiply numbers too
Three, four, five

Recess!

Track 7: Dot's Song

Who can turn the stove on with her smile?
Who can take a bubble bath
And suddenly fill it with crocodiles?
'Cause it's you, Dot and you should know it
Put nitro on a bridge go ahead and blow it
Mud is all around, I guess it's spring
Name another crooner, other than Bing
Don't throw your hat up in the air
'Cause what might land is a frigidaire
Dot!

Track 8: Dot's Quiet Time

Dot: Quiet!

All I want is quiet
No reason to deny it
I can't take that riot
Quiet! Quiet!! QUIET!!!

Let me clarify it
The noise I can't defy it
I simply will not buy it
Give me quiet! Quiet!! QUIET!!!

Now to nullify it
I just won't stand by it
It's time now to "bye-bye" it
I want quiet! Quiet!! QUIET!!!

[Music plays in the background]

QUIET!
I want quiet, quiet, quiet!

This urge, I can't deny it,
To find some peace and quiet,
I'll search both low and high; It
Must be quiet! Quiet!! QUIET!!!

[Nepal, high on mountain top]

Gee, it's so quiet.
Too quiet.
Terribly quiet.
Awfully quiet.
AAAUUUUUUGGGHHHHHHHH!

I thought I wanted quiet
I thought I could apply it
But now that I have tried it...
I'm sick and tired of quiet!

[Pulls out boom-box and plays rock version of Animaniacs Theme]

Track 9: All the Words in the English Language (Pt. 2)

Yakko: Level and levity, lewd and longevity
Libel, libation, Lanai
Lithium, litigate, legal, legitimate
Liberty, levy and lie.

Dot : Welcome back. Yakko's now at the L's as he tries to sing all
the words in the English language. A slight mistake at the
F's -- here's what it looked like:

Yakko: Facial and faction and fractal and fraction
And fraudulent, fragrant, frappé
Frankincense, frankish and 'frakisish, fankish...'
And... shoot! Yadda yadda flambé!

Dick : Now, that mistake could have proved costly for Yakko, but he
recovered beautifully.

Dot : Now let's watch as Yakko continues with the L's.

Yakko: Libation and libertine, limited, limousine
Limpid and limbo and lime
Lima and lipid and literature, liquid
And listing and liter and line.

There's lobby and loading and loathsome and loaning
And logo and then locomotion
There's lotus and lottery, lobo, lobotomy
Logic and loosen and lotion.

Lozenge and lubber and lucky and lover
And lullaby, lumber and luke
Luster and luscious and lunatic, lustrous
And lurking and lunar and lute.

Dot : Yakko's now about halfway through all the words in the English
language. Dick Button and I will be back with more.

Track 10: Slappy Squirrel Theme

YW+D : She's a cranky old critter
She's bitter
We warn ya
She lives in a treehouse
In Burbank
California

Along with her nephew
He says "spew"
He's cheerful
Then his aunt
Starts to rant
She gives him an earful

She's grumpy
He's happy
It's generation-gappy
Take a whirl
With the squirrels
Skippy and Slappy!

Slappy: Ah, put a sock in it!

Skippy: That's my...
YWD+Sk: ...Aunt Slappy!

Track 11: Wakko's Two Note Song

Prof: Wakko! Would you mind stopping that terrible noise?

Wakko: It's not noise, I'm writing a song.

Prof: That's not a song, it's just two notes.
It's just a squeezing and a pulling.
That doesn't make a song.

Dot: Sure it does!

Wakko: Listen.

[Music plays]

La la la
La la la la la

Track 12: Presidents

Yakko: Heigh ho, do you know
The names of the U.S. residents
Who then became the presidents
And got a view from the White House loo
Of Pennsylvania Avenue?

George Washington was the first, you see
He once chopped down a cherry tree
Dot : President number two would be
John Adams and then number three

Yakko: Tom Jefferson stayed up to write
The Constitution late at night
So he and his wife had a great big fight
And she made him sleep on the couch all night

Wakko: James Madison never had a son
And he fought the War of 1812
Dot : James Monroe's colossal nose
Was bigger than Pinocchio's

Yakko: John Quincy Adams was number six
And it's Andrew Jackson's butt he kicks
So Jackson learns to play politics
Next time he's the one that the country picks

Dot : Martin Van Buren, number eight
For a one-term shot as Chief of State
Yakko: William Harrison, how do you praise?
That guy was dead in thirty days

Wakko: John Tyler, he liked country folk
Dot : And after him came President Polk
Yakko: Zachary Taylor liked to smoke
His breath killed friends whenever he spoke

Wakko: Eighteen fifty, really nifty
Millard Fillmore's in
Yakko: Young and fierce was Franklin Pierce
The man without a chin

Dot : Follows next a period spannin'
Four long years with James Buchanan
Then the South starts shootin' cannon
And we've got a civil war
YW+D : A war, a war down south in Dixie

Yakko: Up to bat comes old Abe Lincoln
Dot : There's a guy who's really thinkin'
Wakko: Kept the United States from shrinkin'
Saved the ship of state from sinkin'

Dot : Andrew Johnson's next
He had some slight defects
Wakko: Congress each
Would impeach
Dot : And so the country now elects

Yakko: Ulysses Simpson Grant
Who would scream and rave and rant
Wakko: While drinking whiskey
Although risky
'Cause he'd spill it on his pants

Yakko: It's eighteen seventy-seven
And the Democrats would gloat
But they're all amazed when Rutherford Hayes
Wins by just one vote

Dot : James Garfield, someone really hated
'Cause he was assassinated
Wakko: Chester Arthur gets instated
Four years later, he was traded

Dot : Grover Cleveland, really fat
Elected twice as a Democrat
Then Benjamin Harrison; after that
It's William McKinley up to bat

Yakko: Teddy Roosevelt charged up San Juan Hill
Wakko: And President Taft, he got the bill
Yakko: In 1913 Woodrow
YW+D : Wil...
...son takes us into World War One

Yakko: Warren Harding, he does fine
Dot : It's Calvin Coolidge next in line
Wakko: And then in nineteen twenty-nine
The market crashes, and we find

Yakko: It's Herbert Hoover's big debut
He gets the blame and loses to
Dot : Franklin Roosevelt, president who
Helped us win in World War Two

Wakko: Harry Truman, weird little human
Serves two terms and when he's done
Yakko: It's Eisenhower who's got the power
From fifty-three to sixty-one

Dot : John F. Kennedy, he gets shot
So Lyndon Johnson takes his spot
Yakko: Richard Nixon, he gets caught
And Gerald Ford fell down a lot

Wakko: Jimmy Carter liked campaign trips
Yakko: And Ronald Reagan's speeches' scripts
All came from famous movie clips
And President Bush said "read my lips"

Dot : Now in Washington D.C.
Wakko: There's Democrats and the G.O.P.
Yakko: But the one in charge is plain to see
Dot : It's Clinton, first name Hillary

Yakko: The next President to lead the way
Well, it just might be yourself one day
Then the press'll distort everything you say
YW+D : So jump in your plane and fly away

Track 13: Anvil Song

Kids : Baloney is our friendly friend
That we made up ourselves
He likes to play and sing all day
That we made up ourselves

Baloney: There's nothing like new friendly friends
To make me feel all warm and yum-yum doodle-dum inside.

Yakko : An anvil's black and shiny
Dot : It's very heavy too
Wakko : So watch out, my chubby friend
YW+D : Or one will fall on you!
Baloney: (spoken) On me? Heh hah huh huh!
(CLANG!)

Baloney: Great song!  Let's sing it again! I Lovey-dovey loved it!

Yakko : It's made of solid iron
Dot : It weighs a ton or two
Wakko : We know you'd like to meet it
YW+D : It wants to meet you too!
Baloney: Huh hu--
(CLANG!)

Wakko: There's chow galore

A hot cocoa drinky for Pinky
Yakko and Wakko
Don't allow tobacco
At the big wrap party tonight
It's happy hour
In the water tower
At the big wrap party tonight

YW+D : In our 'toon careers
These are the golden years
We've loved the jokes
So thank you folks

Track 15: All the Words in the English Language (Pt. 3)

Yakko: Zachary, Zanzibar, zappy and zamindar
Zillion and ZIP code and Zen
Zany and zoning and zeal and zirconium
Zodiac, zombie, ze-in.

Dot : Yakko Warner, now moments away from having sung all the words
in the English language. Dick Button, is he going to make it?

Dick : If it was anyone else, I'd say no, but he's young; he's
resilient... We'll just have to see.

Yakko: Zigging and zagging and zealous and zebra
And zenith and zap and zaffer
Zeppelin and zipper and zephyr and zither
Then zinc and zombini
And zoo and zucchini
And Zulu and Zorro
Then zit and zamoro
And zero and zoom and... ugh!

Dot : Guess not!

Yakko: ...Zaire!

Dot : He did it! Yakko Warner has just sung all the words in the
English language!

YW+D: We're so sad we've no more time together
Just to drop an anvil on your head
And stuff your pockets full of dynamite
Then tie you to a rhino's head!

Dot: Bye!
Yakko: Spoil your dinner!
