(Transcribed by "The Corinthian") --- "I am the Very Model of a Cartoon Individual" Parody of "I am the Very Model of a Modern Major General" from `The Pirates of Penzance' Yakko: I am the very model of a cartoon individual My animation's comical, unusual and whimsical I'm quite adept at funny gags; comedic theory I have read From wicked puns and stupid jokes to anvils that drop on your head. I'm very good at fancy dances; I can even pirouette Then smack the villain with a fish; I know my cartoon etiquette I can make my face all mean and really give you quite a fright Then make up with flowers made of real exploding dynamite. When in a jam I just yell "stop" and villians in their tracks are froze Then I sneak up and utter "start" and take my hands and honk their nose I am quite proud to be in such a hierarchial progeny From Daffy Duck and Tweety Bird to Babs and Buster Bunny. To suit my mood I can call forth a lot of different sceneries Like outer space and desert scapes and Himalayan eateries From this bag here why I can pull most anything imaginable Like office desks and lava lights and Bert who is a cannibal. YW+D: You see, in matters comical, unusual, and whimsical We are the very model of cartoon individuals! =============================================== SLAPPY SQUIRREL INTRODUCTION (Episode 3) YW+D : The crankiest of creatures in the whole wide world, Our next cartoon features Slappy the Squirrel!

Yakko: Everybody lives on a street in a city Or a village or a town for what it's worth. And they're all inside a country which is part of a continent That sits upon a planet known as Earth. And the Earth is a ball full of oceans and some mountains Which is out there spinning silently in space. And living on that Earth are the plants and the animals And also the entire human race. It's a great big universe And we're all really puny We're just tiny little specks About the size of Mickey Rooney. It's big and black and inky And we are small and dinky It's a big universe and we're not. And we're part of a vast interplanetary system Stretching seven hundred billion miles long. With nine planets and a sun; we think the Earth's the only one That has life on it, although we could be wrong. Across the interstellar voids are a billion asteroids Including meteors and Halley's Comet too. And there's over fifty moons floating out there like balloons In a panoramic trillion-mile view. And still it's all a speck amid a hundred billion stars In a galaxy we call the Milky Way. It's sixty thousand trillion miles from one end to the other And still that's just a fraction of the way. 'Cause there's a hundred billion galaxies that stretch across the sky Filled with constellations, planets, moons and stars. And still the universe extends to a place that never ends Which is maybe just inside a little jar! YW+D : It's a great big universe And we're all really puny We're just tiny little specks About the size of Mickey Rooney. * Though we don't know how it got here * We're an important part here * It's a big universe and it's ours! * - According to Rogel, these lines originally were written as: You might think that you're essential Try inconsequential It's a small world after all! [close with Twilight Zone theme] =============================================== Lyrics from HOOKED ON A CEILING (Episode 4) by Gordon Bressack and Charles Howell IV YW+D : If you need your ceiling painted come see us We will paint it better than a guy named Gus If it's flaking and it's peeling We will renovate your ceiling We will make it so appealing Come see us! Dot : Ceilings! Nothing more than ceilings! =============================================== Lyrics from THE TAMING OF THE SCREWY (Episode 5) by Peter Hastings "The Studio Shrink" Yakko: Hello Dot : Doctor Wakko: Scratchansniff! YW+D : He asks a lot of questions To find out what we think He's Doctor Scratchansniff The studio shrink. W+D : He says, Yakko: "How do you feel?" W+D : We say, "With our hands!" Yakko: "How do you stay together?" W+D : We use rubber bands! Yakko: "I want to know your psyche!" W+D : There's two inside our skull! Yakko: "Now what would you call that?" W+D : A bi-psyche skull! YW+D : He knows our motivations That's what he'd like to think He's Doctor Scratchansniff The studio shrink! (Transcribed by Raymond Hom) --- "The Etiquette Song" Yakko: When you walk into a party It's a formal universe DrSns: Ja! YW+D : So you jump up on your host And with a kiss say "Hello, Nurse!"

Ring a bell, dude? (Runt looks under dish and sighs) Rita: Exactly my point. Rita: Humans ain't what they seem to be They don't mean that much to me No, not much at all. When you're little and tiny They pet your cute hiney But then when you grow It's a simple no-show It's "shoo shoo off this" And "don't you dare scratch on that" If they call you at all It's always "dumb cat." Humans ain't what they seem to be They don't mean that much to me No, not much at all. But when it's all dark and quiet I try hard to fight it But I dream of home Then I won't have to roam Someone to feed me and put me to bed And scratch me just so on top of my head. But I ain't gonna love 'em Not gonna answer that call 'Cause humans don't mean that much to me No, not much at all. (bars fall away) Rita: Who knew?

Skippy: I know, Aunt Slappy, but I can't sleep; I keep hearing Santa's sleigh. Slappy: Ah, that's just the LAPD choppers. Santy's not coming until you're asleep, kiddo, so get to bed. Skippy: But I'm not tired! Tell me a story, pleeease! Slappy: Ah, for the love of Al Gore... All right -- one story, then dreamland, OK? Skippy: Promise! Slappy: OK, let's see... Oh! You wanna hear about the time I stuffed live piranha down the pants of Sonny Tufts? Skippy: No! A Christmas story! Slappy: Sonny was drinking egg nog at the time...! Skippy: No, Aunt Slappy. Just read. Slappy: All right already, Mister Story Editor. Sheesh! [hawks] Skippy: Speeew! Slappy: Ahem. "The Day Before Christmas": Slappy: 'Twas the day before Christmas, in winter's deep freeze But in Burbank, L.A., it was ninety degrees. Now, tonight is the night Santa comes to the lot Bringing presents for Yakko, Wakko, and Dot. The kids were excited; they rushed to prepare But others looked on with a growing despair. Plotz : These gifts for the Warners, someone's got to see to it They must be delivered; I want you to do it. DrSns : But I did it last year, or have you forgot Those kids drove me bonkies, and kissed me a lot. They made me stay up singing carols all night And then I got creamed in that big pillow fight. Nurse : But why bring them presents, when Santa will do? Plotz : It's a clause in their contract: if we don't, they can sue. There must be a person who'll deliver this stuff But where can I find someone stupid enough? Ralph : Duh, good night, Mr. Costner; go ahead, pass on by Merry Christmas. Mindy : Okay, I love ya, bye-bye! Ralph : Good night, Mr. Hippo. Flavio: Good night to you, too Marita: Come along, Flavio; we've more shopping to do! Runt : I'm hungry. Rita : Be quiet! We don't want to get caught There might be some trash cans with food on the lot. Ralph : Duh, good night, Mr. Keaton; that's a lovely sedan Plotz : Give him a Santa suit! Ralph is our man! Yakko : So, 'twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house Dot : Some creatures were stirring, Wakko : including a mouse. Brain : Tonight, my dear Pinky, our plan is unfurled We steal Santa's sleigh and take over the world! Pinky : Brain, you're a genius. You simply [whack!] astound me Brain : Aaaaaaaahhhh! Pinky : Narf! Brain's gonna pound me. Dot : The stockings were hung so our names clearly showed Wakko : In the hopes that old Santa would leave a big load! Yakko : Mwah! Goodnight everybody! Yakko : The children were nestled all fast in their beds Wakko : While visions of sugarplums danced in our heads. Wakko : [munch] Deee-licious! Yakko : We were all feeling tired when we turned out the light [click...] [...click] Forget it; there's no way I'm sleeping tonight. Dot : When out on the lot there arose such a rumble Yakko : We sprang from our beds Wakko : and we all took a tumble. Yakko : And what to our wondering eyes did we view...? Dot : But a cat and a dog in the garbage -- peyoo! Yakko : Then, to our surprise, we heard distant banters Of a miniature sleigh and eight pigeons with antlers. Pesto : I'm dying here, ooh! Squit : This sure ain't no fun Bobby : The guy in the suit, he must weigh a ton! Dot : With a little old driver so lively and quick Wakko : We knew in a moment it must be St. Nick! Ralph : Duh, now Bobby, now Squit, now Pesto, now Vixen! On Comet! On Cupid! On Richard and Nixon! To the top of the tower, come on now, let's fly! Pesto : I just got a hernia thanks to this guy! Yakko : So up to the rooftop, Santa was hurled! Brain : As soon as it lands, we'll take over the world! [wham, stomp] Pinky, I am in considerable pain Pinky : Narf! Zort! Poit! Gat! I'm with you, Brain. Yakko : It was a time of excitement; the moment drew near Dot : There was no doubt about it; Wakko : Santa was here! Squit : Your antlers look cute, Pesto. Pesto : All right, that's it! [fights] Bobby : Ho, Pesto, it's Christmas; quit whackin' on Squit! Yakko : And while the pigeons with antlers were having their kicks Santa fell through the roof like a sack full of bricks. Dot : He was dressed all in fur, with a glaze in his eyes 'Cause the fall knocked him silly. Ralph : Uh, Happy Easter, you guys! Wakko : His face, how it twinkled! His dimples, how merry! Dot : His cheeks were like roses. Yakko : His gut, that was scary. Wakko : He spoke not a word, but instead went right to it He emptied his bag. Ralph : Uh, that ought to do it! Yakko : Then laying a finger inside of his nose Yakko : Which the dear network censor finds totally gross. Wakko : Lumbering, up the tree trunk he rose! Dot : He sprang to his sleigh, and signalled the flock Ralph : Duh, giddyup birdies! Yakko : Then they dropped like a rock. Wakko : And we heard him exclaim, from up high in the sky Santa : Season's greetings to all! Yakko : And we saw him fly by. Runt : Thanks Santa! Rita : We mean it! Runt : Yeah, thanks a whole lot! Santa : And Merry Christmas to Yakko, Wakko, and Dot! Skippy: And Merry Christmas, Aunt Slappy, and to you girls and boys As for me...[yawn]...I'm going downstairs to open my toys!!!

(Transcribed by Michael J. Farren) =============================================== THE BRAVE LITTLE TRAILER (Episode 52) by Tom Minton Voice: And now, the story of the Brave Little Trailer. There was a little trailer who lived in a court That got trashed by tornadoes whose tempers were short. The losers got fed to the monster next door -- A steam shovel who loved to eat trailers galore. But the Brave Little Trailer ducked out of the way And lived to fight twisters on some other day. And so this is what the Brave Little Trailer would say: BLT : Those cyclones may think that I'm weaker and frailer, But they'll never smoosh me; I'm a smart little trailer. Voice: For no matter how big or how long or how scary, No twister could touch him. BLT : I'm simply too wary. Voice: So the years came and went, and, with them, much thunder. But, where tornadoes failed, time had stepped in to plunder. The Brave Little Trailer was older, and dusty. BLT : My wheels are worn out and my axle is rusty. Voice: The new trailers had high-tech features and polish, BLT : Which you know the next twister is gonna demolish. Voice: His neighbors, all newer, more modern and sleeker, Said: N1 : This guy's making our neighborhood weaker. N2 : Why, he's driving down values and looks totally spent. N3 : The scrap heap is where he ought to be sent. Voice: So, for the Brave Little Trailer, that was a wrap. He was sent to the junkyard, and there sold for scrap. The steam shovel licked its steel chops with glee At the sight of its dinner. BLT : The main course is me. Voice: When, all of a sudden, ripping down from the sky, Came the mother of cyclones, BLT : stopping by to say hi. Voice: The high-tech trailers shut their windows all tight And stood there unmoving -- an arrogant sight. N1 : With our new weather radar, there is no delay Ascertaining that doom is now heading this way. Voice: Indeed, this was our hero's big moment of truth. BLT : Too bad that I'm here and not in Duluth. Voice: But now the Brave Little Trailer had his craftiest plot. BLT : Frankly, I was thinking of just crying a lot. Voice: But instead, he slapped the shovel square in the face, Which sent the two rivals into a chase. Our hero moved swiftly, avoiding the clench BLT : Of the shovel, who angrily dug a deep trench. Voice: Soon, the steam shovel's trench became a big crater. BLT : Pay attention to this; there's a quiz on it later. Voice: And now our small old hero led the chase under ground, Where all you could hear was a fierce crunching sound. Then, suddenly, up into view from below, Popped our own Little Trailer. BLT : That shovel's a schmoe. Voice: He lept in the air to taunt the big bruiser, And the thug took the bait, to wind up the loser In a squareoff that pulled him into the funnel, BLT : And there's no light at the end of that tunnel! Voice: The steam shovel flew, then fell all apart, And everyone knew: BLT : Now that's gonna smart. Voice: Now half of the twister's foul work was all done, But what's this? That little guy spoiled all his fun. Cyclo: Hold it, pipsqueak! Voice: the cyclone did bellow, And things sure looked bleak for our poor little fellow. But the trailer worked quickly, and, without delay, He pushed all his neighbors right out of harm's way. Then our hero called up, from his simple dirt dome: BLT : Ah, go chase your tail! There's no place like home. Voice: The big twister bounded, as all cyclones do, BLT : But under ground's the one place those guys can't get to. Voice: The new, high-tech trailers were now safe from the wrath Of the twister, who dropped all it had in its path 'Til it played out its rage, and wore down to a level Where our hero stomped out the annoying dust devil. BLT : You can call me a wise guy, a cranky old grump, But when it comes to tornadoes -- heh! -- I'm nobody's chump. Voice: And that's a story all little trailers should know. LTs : Goodnight, Gramps! Voice: Goodnight, kids. Now I gotta go Up to the roof. It's a quarter to nine -- Time for an old pal to turn on my sign. We two are old friends now. We share in the work. But I don't pay him much, 'cause he's still a big jerk. (Transcribed by Ron O'Dell) =============================================== I'M CUTE (Episode 53) Music and lyrics by Randy Rogel. Dot : I'm cute, yes it's true I really can't help it But what can I do?

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!!! [Moo! Crunch! Chew! Whoot-whoot! Cricket-cricket!] Dot: 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!

[Pulls out boom-box and plays rock version of Animaniacs Theme] Dot: Hee hee hee hee! (Transcribed by "The Corinthian") =============================================== ANIMANIACS FRENCH THEME (Episode 56) YW+D: Voici l'heure des Animaniacs On a disjoncte a max Soyez cool; soyez relax Sur le rire pas de taxe On est les Animaniacs Y+W : Nous c'est Yakko et Wakko (1) Dot : Je suis Dot leur petite soeur YW+D: Pour egayer le studio on a joue les agitateurs Comme ca n'a pas beaucoup plu Ils ont boucle les Warners On s'est enfui et nous voici pour votre plus grand bonheur On est les Animaniacs Dot vous charme; Yakko s'eclaxe (+) Wakko est super-voraxe (+) Et Bill Clinton joue du sax' On est les Animaniacs!

On s'marre a max (*) This line changes every show in France, but the one listed is what Episode 56 has. Notes from Jean Philippe Matton: (+) Words "eclaxe", "voraxe" and "contraxes" don't exist; real words are "s'eclate", "vorace" and "contrats", they have been changed to sound like Animaniacs. "Y'a" = abbreviation for "il y a" = There is (are). (1) "Nous c'est Yakko et Wakko" Yes, this line is quite special. It's spoken French but it's not an error. It's a repetitive structure, sort of insistent turn of phrase. Correct French : "Nous sommes Yakko et Wakko" = We are Yakko and Wakko Spoken French : "Nous, c'est [se] Yakko et Wakko" = Us, We are Yakko and Wakko (Mmm, meaningless I suppose) I write a comma because there's no relation between "Nous" and "c'est". In the same way, young children often say "Moi, je suis plus fort, nanana!!" "Moi" and "Je" designates the same person; it's redundant. Translation: It's time for Animaniacs We're disjointed (slang for crazy) to the max Be cool, be relaxed On laughter there's no tax We're Animaniacs We're Yakko and Wakko I'm Dot, their little sister To cheer up the studio, we played the part of troublemakers Because it wasn't liked They locked up the Warners We ran away and here we are for your greatest happiness We're Animaniacs Dot charms you; Yakko bursts (out laughing) Wakko is super-voracious And Bill Clinton plays the sax We're Animaniacs! There are Minus and Cortex Who want to run the Universe The pigeons are overzealous Rififi has a fit of pique Toubeau pursues Mindy Rita declaims a verse The authors flipped, we tossed their scripts and it's hopeless We're Animaniacs We've signed contracts Our madness makes you disordered Follow us on our escapades Animani Who sow discord Who have manic humor (?) [Better translation, please!] Animaniacs We're laughing to the max (Transcribed and translated by Jean Philippe Matton, Mike Farren, Ron O'Dell and Brendan Dunn) =============================================== SCHNITZELBANK (Episode 56) Music traditional (Schnitzelbank).
