Lyrics[]
Stephen:
Doctor, doctor, please come here quick
My big brother is awfully sick
He's got a froggy down in his throat
(It's true, I heard it!)
He can't sing a single note
(croaking)
Chorus:
Woah! Woah!
Doctor Looney, will you fix him up?
Woah! Woah! Woah!
All you've got to do is
Put in the goo, stir up the brew
Make it boil and bubble
Spread it around, now that you've found
Doctor Looney's remedy
Pick up your knees, high as you please
Dance away your troubles
Now stick out your tongue and say
Aah! Aah! Aah!
You feel better!
Janice:
Doctor, doctor, better get here fast
I don't think my mom will last
Her tummy is filled with butterflies
She's a bundle of nerves; she laughs, she cries
(laughing, crying)
Chorus:
Woah! Woah!
Doctor Looney, will you fix her up?
Woah! Woah! Woah!
All you've got to do is
Put in the goo, stir up the brew
Make it boil and bubble
Spread it around, now that you've found
Doctor Looney's remedy
Pick up your knees, high as you please
Dance away your troubles
Now stick out your tongue and say
Aah! Aah! Aah!
You feel better!
Donny:
Doctor, doctor, hurry if you will
My whole family, they can't sit still
They've got ants down in their pants
(Tickley little buggers!)
They're doing a strange kind of jungle dance
(monkey sounds)
Chorus:
Woah! Woah!
Doctor Looney, will you fix them up?
Woah! Woah! Woah!
All you've got to do is
Put in the goo, stir up the brew
Make it boil and bubble
Spread it around, now that you've found
Doctor Looney's remedy
Pick up your knees, high as you please
Dance away your troubles
Now stick out your tongue and say
Aah! Aah! Aah!
You feel better!
Doctor Looney's remedy (Doctor Looney will fix you up)
- repeat 4x; at end of 4th instead of singing
(What's in parenthesis, say "You feel better!")
