THE SENSES SONG (Episode 44)
Music by Randy Rogel.
Lyrics by Randy Rogel and Tom Ruegger.
Yakko: The sense of sight Is what guides us right When we go out on walks. Wakko: The sense of smell's The way you tell That you need to change your socks. Dot : The sense of touch Is what hurts so much When you bang your toe on the bed. Yakko: The sense of hearing is something good 'Cause if a tree falls in the wood Would there be a sound? You bet there would If it landed on top of your head YW+D : Your head If a tree lands on top of your head! Wakko: The sense of taste Affects your waist Yakko: Which makes five senses in all. Dot : There's a sixth sense, too, but it's hard to explain It's a psychic connection inside of your brain So you can understand people like Shirley MacLaine Yakko: Who wear crystals they bought in the mall YW+D : The mall Who wear crystals they bought in the mall! Yakko: And now the other senses! Dot : There are scents you can smell Like cologne from Chanel Or the scents of expensive perfume. Yakko: There are scents of flowers We hope overpowers The kitty box next to your room. Phew! Wakko: There's a sense of pride You have deep down inside Yakko: When you practice a sense of fair play. Dot : There are dollars and cents that you pay at a toll Yakko: Or the census man who is taking a poll Wakko: And a sense of confusion; we're out of control YW+D : And they really should take us away Away They really should take us away! Dot : There's a sense of humor A sense of doom, or A sense of awe, sense of timing. Yakko: The sense of a word A sense of absurd Like trying to do all this rhyming! Dot : There's incense Wakko: And horse sense Yakko: And common sense, it's true. Dot : Sense of wonder, sense of beauty Wakko: Sense of honor, sense of duty Yakko: A sense of doubt, a sense of danger Dot : A sense of fear, when you meet a stranger Wakko: A sense of style, a sense of worth Yakko: A sense of direction for knowing the earth YW+D : A sense of dread as we're singing this song That it's starting to turn out completely all wrong And it's time that we end it because it's too long 'Cause it just doesn't make any sense Nonsense This song doesn't make any sense!

MARY TYLER DOT (Episode 45)
Lyrics by John P. McCann
Parody of the theme to The Mary Tyler Moore Show.
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!Transcribed by Paul J. Lee

Yakko: Hey, look at this store! Wakko: There's movies galore! Dot : We've seen 'em a thousand times over before YW+D : And that's why our brains don't work anymore! Yakko: "The Player" is a movie About finding fresh new scripts Like "Rambo 3"... And "Rocky 5"... And "Star Trek" Number 6. Dot : Eva joined with Zsa Zsa And they formed a "Sister Act" But both were "Unforgiven" Because neither one could act. Wakko: "The Hand That Rocked The Cradle" Once belonged to "Hook", you see But it got bored and so it joined "The Addams Family". Yakko: "Amadeus" was a genius "Beethoven" was a dog The "Muppet Family Christmas" Is about a pig and frog. Dot : There was a sled named Rosebud And a "Citizen" named "Kane" He rode it 'til the snow was melted Now he's "Singin' In The Rain". Wakko: The "Princess Bride" got married To the handsome "Prince Of Tides" Which now makes her dad, "The Fisher King", The "Father Of The Bride". YW+D : And pretty soon you'll find them all Inside the "TV Guide" Along with all the stars you like to see! Dot : Like Hitchcock and Spielberg and Oliver Stone Yakko: Shirley MacLaine and Sylvester Stallone. Wakko: Francis Ford Coppola, Hepburn and Tracy Dot : Robert Zemeckis and Martin Scorcese. Yakko: Clint Eastwood, John Wayne, Woody Allen and Mia Wakko: Robert Deniro and Andy Garcia.

And that's all the people we know! --- Cast : We're glad the dinosaur is gone He was an easy mark But if we ever miss him We can rent "Jurassic Park". So when it comes to clunkers Like "The Babe" or like "Presidio" YW+D : Don't pay $7.50 Just catch 'em on home video. As for us it's bye-bye time So long now, toodle-oo. We've had quite enough of this Cast : Video revue!
