6. I'll let you in on a little secret
When I was 14, I had a portable record player with a 16 RPM speed. When I played my 45 of "The Witch Doctor" at 16 RPMs, the sped-up part sounded just like David Seville singing very, very slowly. Same thing with "The Chipmunk Song."

Cool, huh?

16. If I recall correctly...
There is no bing the second time through in the "chorus". Could be wrong. :shrug:

20. Convinced I was right, I did some searches.
And I was wrong. x( :D

Ah well, I hope I've never claimed to be perfect.

Allthough in some versions I found the second "bing bang" is written as "bang bang."

26. I thought I remembered it as 'bang bang' too.
Maybe different recordings of the song had it different ways?

19. Makes me think of 'Cement Mixer
Putty Putty,' 'RATT FINK,' one I can't remember the name of that might have been called 'The Box' or 'The Wooden Box' and 'Loving You Has Made Me Bananas' -- all of which were used from time to time on a kids' afterschool puppet show that used to air on an independent UHF channel when I was a kid. Cincinnatians -- or those from the area -- will remember the Larry Smith Show (it was also called Larry Smith Puppet Hour, I think).

25. Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Edited on Fri Aug-13-04 05:56 PM by GoddessOfGuinness
Words and music by Saxie Dowell

Down in the meadow in a little bitty pool
Swam three little fishies and a mama fishie too
"Swim" said the mama fishie, "Swim if you can"
And they swam and they swam all over the dam
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
And they swam and they swam all over the dam

"Stop" said the mama fishie, "or you will get lost"
The three little fishies didn't wanna be bossed
The three little fishies went off on a spree
And they swam and they swam right out to the sea
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
And they swam and they swam right out to the sea

"Whee!" yelled the little fishies, "Here's a lot of fun
We'll swim in the sea till the day is done"
They swam and they swam, and it was a lark
Till all of a sudden they saw a shark!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Till all of a sudden they saw a shark!

"Help!" cried the little fishies, "Gee! look at all the whales!"
And quick as they could, they turned on their tails
And back to the pool in the meadow they swam
And they swam and they swam back over the dam
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
Boop boop dit-tem dat-tem what-tem Chu!
And they swam and they swam back over the dam.

27. Skweeze Me, Pleeze Me
(Holder/Lea)

You know how to skweeze me Oh Oh you know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you might like to know
when a girl's meaning yes, she says no.
You got rude talk you got one walk, all your jokes are blue
You've got long nails you tell tall tales, some you think are true

And there's nowhere to go you won't go
If there's nowhere to run you go slow
If you move up to me then I'll show you the way
Then you'll know how to skweeze me Oh Oh
you know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you'd might like to know
how to skweeze me Oh Oh
You know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you might like to know
when a girl's meaning yes, she says no.

You got a sweet tongue you sing love songs,
Can't you learn to spell
take me back 'ome you got it all wrong
'Cos we sing that as well

You know how to skweeze me Oh Oh You know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you might like to know
How to skweeze me Oh Oh You know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you might like to know
when a girl's meaning yes, she says no.

You know how to skweeze me Oh Oh You know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you might like to know

How to skweeze me Oh Oh You know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you might like to know
