A Quake, A Quake!


 * Yakko:
 * This is the city: Los Angeles, California.


 * On a starlit winter's night,
 * When the moon was shining bright,
 * Back in January of 1994,
 * At 4:30 in the morning,
 * And without a single warning,
 * Something strange began to move the floor.


 * A quake, a quake,
 * The house begins to shake.
 * You're bouncing 'cross the floor
 * And watching all your dishes break.


 * You're sleeping, there's a quake,
 * You're instantly awake.
 * You're leaping out of bed and shouting...


 * Dr. Scratchansniff:
 * Oh, for heaven's sake!


 * Yakko:
 * I ran outside with neighbors,
 * Their faces filled with shock.
 * That's because I'm standing there
 * In nothing but my socks.


 * Oh, a quake, a quake...


 * Dot:
 * Say, it's all a big mistake!


 * Wakko:
 * Just feel the ground go up and down!


 * Yakko:
 * Won't someone hit the brake?


 * A quake, a quake,
 * Oh, what a mess they make!
 * The bricks, the walls,
 * The chimney falls,
 * Destruction in its wake!


 * Dr. Scratchansniff:
 * I did not have insurance,
 * So I called them from the scene
 * Und suddenly I'm listening to
 * An answering machine, saying...


 * Yakko:
 * Too late! Too late!
 * You shouldn't oughta wait!
 * So now you're stuck,
 * We wish you luck!
 * Here comes a six-point-eight!


 * Whose fault? Whose fault?
 * The San Andreas' fault,
 * 'Cause Mister Richter
 * Can't predict her
 * Kicking our asphalt!


 * Seismologists all say
 * Tectonic plates are in between
 * An encroaching crustal mantle.


 * Wakko and Dot:
 * Yeah, so what the heck's that mean?


 * Yakko:
 * It means a quake, a quake!


 * Wakko and Dot:
 * Oh, really, yeah, no fake?
 * We kinda had that feeling
 * When the ground began to shake!


 * Yakko:
 * California's great!
 * It's such a lovely state!
 * 'Cause every lawn
 * Is sitting on
 * A continental plate!


 * Los Angeles had fires
 * And a riot and a flood
 * And then a drought and a recession
 * And now we hear this thud


 * Of a quake, a quake!


 * The Warners:
 * How much more can we take?!


 * Dot:
 * We thought that we had seen it all...


 * Yakko:
 * But this one takes the cake!


 * The dirt...


 * Dot:
 * The rocks...


 * Wakko:
 * And all those aftershocks!


 * The Warners:
 * It's just the planet
 * Moving granite
 * Several city blocks!


 * (to the tune of London Bridge)
 * LA town is falling down
 * While the ground moves around!
 * We won't let it get us down,
 * We're Californians!


 * Yakko:
 * A quake...


 * Dot:
 * A quake...


 * Wakko:
 * It's time to pull up stake.


 * Yakko:
 * We're all fed up,
 * We can't deny it!


 * Dot:
 * Fires, quakes, and floods, and riot!


 * The Warners:
 * We want someplace with peace and quiet...
 * So we're moving to Beirut!
