The Kid In The Lid

Boy : It was hotter than blazes About a hundred and ten So we stayed in the house In the air conditionin'. We just hung around My sister and me       And watched countless hours Of daytime TV. Too hot to go out We'd melt in the sun So we stared at the tube Which isn't much fun. All we could do was watch, watch Watch, watch 'Til I spilled lots of soda All over my crotch. Then we heard a kaboom That kaboom shook the room We turned And into our house something slid. A strange-looking fellow The Kid in the Lid And he said to us Yakko: "Oops. Now look what I did.       "Now, we all know it's hot And you don't have a pool But there are lots of fun things We can do that are cool. "The first silly thing we can do..." Boy : Said the kid Yakko: "...is play with some glue!" Boy : Said the kid in the lid. Yakko: "Lots of wet glue       We'll make a big mess        We'll glue things together        Your parents will stress." Boy : But our parents were out They were gone for a week To be truthful They'd been gone for a 90-day streak. The last that we heard They were in the Bahamas Leaving us here To face childhood traumas. As for playing with glue My sis said Girl :            "Let's do it!" Boy : "Kids need to have fun" I shouted, "Let's glue it!" But our pet woodchuck said CWood: "No, that kid has to leave       Open the door        And give him the heave.        "He doesn't seem normal He doesn't seem well Besides that, his pants Have a real funny smell." Yakko: "Hey, woodchuck, calm down Just relax" Boy :             said the kid Yakko: "It's you who smells bad" Boy  : Said the kid in the lid. Yakko: "I bet you've not washed In at least seven months So I strongly suggest That we bathe you at once. "In the tub..." Boy :                 said the kid Yakko: "...goes the smelly woodchuck       Use lots of shampoo        To cut through all the muck." CWood: "No, stop!" Boy :             yelled our woodchuck CWood: "Get me out of this tub!" Boy : As the water got deeper The woodchuck went CWood:                   "Blub!" Yakko: "It's OK" Boy :           said the kid Yakko: "I won't let you drown       I'll pull on this chain        So the water goes down.        "And the woodchuck goes too And he goes down the drain And comes out the potty In considerable pain." Boy : Then the toilet exploded        A messy disaster        The water rose up        And wrecked all the plaster.        It surged down the hallway        And flooded the den        It filled up the kitchen        And bedrooms and then...        It splashed out the door        And into the street        Where it provided relief        From the afternoon heat.        Kids came from all over        To splash in the lake        Not knowing the source        Was our potty break. Girl : "They're swimming in water Straight out of our toilet!" Boy : "Think we should tell 'em?" Yakko: "Nah! That'd just spoil it!" CWood: "Ooh! You're going to get it!" Boy : Said our woodchuck, upset CWood: "You ruined our house And got everything wet! "I think you're insane       You're rude and you're naughty        To make matters worse        I'm stuck in this potty!" Yakko: "Perhaps you should nap       You need sleep" Boy :                 said the kid Then all of us watched As that kid closed the lid. Then he went running off And in less than an hour The kid had come back With a small water tower. Yakko: "I've returned" Boy :                 said the kid Yakko: "I've returned with this tower       It would have been sooner        But I needed a shower." Boy : He opened the top And shouted Yakko:            "Let's play!" Boy : Then out sprang two kids Who responded W+D :               "OK!" Yakko: "These two are my sibs       They're fun; wait and see        May I proudly present        Kid Two and Kid Three?" Boy : They gave us a kiss Then said W+D :           "Helloooo, nurse!" Boy : "The first kid was trouble        But these two seem worse!" "Hi! How're you doing?       That's Mary; I'm Scooter" Kid Two looked at Mary Then whispered Dot :                "I'm cuter." Boy : Then they ran all around Doing impossible feats Acting like kids Who've had too many sweets. Kid Three said Wakko:               "I'm hungry" Boy : His eyes started twitchin' He shot out the room And ran into the kitchen. He opened the cupboards And then started chewing On cans of tomatoes And carrots for stewing. He gulped down the flour Some dry macaroni Three bottles of ketchup And then Rice-A-Roni! Dot : "The San Francisco Treat!" Boy : He ate all the dishes But didn't stop there He swallowed the sink Then our new Frigidare. Wakko: "Ahh! Hey, that was delicious       Thanks for the snacks        I'm hypoglycaemic        I get munchie attacks." Boy : Then we heard a loud blast And ran out the door Those three crazy kids Were now playing war! Girl : "Oh no! You must stop this!" Boy : Said Sis to Kid Two Girl : "It's this sort of playing       You just must not do!" Dot : "I'm sorry; we can't        It's too late; we've begun        We always play war        Until somebody's won." Boy : Then the walls started cracking And the ceiling gave in       We ran out the door As the whole house caved in. Then, oh! what bad timing For, right then and there Our parents returned So we said a quick prayer. B+G : "Don't let them be angry" Boy : We said it again B+G : "Don't let them be angry        Oh, please, please! Amen." Boy : Our parents were dazed They stood there dumbfounded As they looked at the damage We knew we'd be grounded. Yakko: "Well, that was some fun       But enough for one day        Give us a call        And we'll come back to play." (YW+D leave for a moment and kids begin to cry.) Wakko: "Ha ha ha! We got ya!" Dot : "Yeah. We were just kiddin'." Yakko: "We'll rebuild your house       And then paint it with Glidden." Dot : "The San Francisco Treat!" Boy : And that's what they did And in less than a jiffy The house was rebuilt And it looked really spiffy. That night, we ate well It had been quite a day But now life was happy It was all A-OK. CWood: "Hello? Hello???       Anyone? Anybody?        Can anyone hear me?        I'm still in the potty!"
