Lyrics
- Bart:
- Dad, taking the family to opening night is the nicest thing you've ever done for us.
- Homer:
- Or will ever do.
- Lisa:
- I can't wait to see this reimagining of Itchy & Scratchy by avant-garde director Julianna Crelmner.
- Homer:
- Hey, it says here the "book" was written by Tom Stoppard. This isn't a book! It's a play! (laughs)
- African Man:
- Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamishtanaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, kimanee sayfaloooooooooooooor...
- Old Cat:
- All hail the king of the cats.
- Cast':
- Sayfalooooooor, sayfaloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooor...
- Marge:
- (gasps) They're coming down the aisles! What if they want to interact with me? Looking through my purse, looking through my purse, keep walking, monkey!
- Bart:
- Don't worry, Mom, they all pass by.
- Marge: Oh thank God. (A monkey immediately walks up and' 'starts to "talk" to her. Confused, Marge makes monkey noises back.)
- Bart: (chuckles)
- Cast:
- Itchy-Scratchy, Itchy-Itchy-Scratchy,
- Itchy-Scratchy, Itchy-Itchy-Scratchy,
- (cont'd over following)
- Old Cat:
- From the day you were born in the alley,
- To the you were hit by a car,
- There's cream TV and mice to eat
- And great big balls of yarn.
- It's the circle,
- The circle of—
- Itchy:
- KNIFE! (Itchy gleefully slices off the Old Cat's limbs.)
- Lisa:
- I love the use of streamers as blood. It robs the violence of its power.
- Bart:
- Woo-hoo! I'm drenched in "blood"!
- Scracthy:
- I don't know why I trust him.
- I guess some cats just never learn.
- Itchy:
- I feel so good when I have crushed him,
- Or left him mangled, maimed and burned.
- Both:
- I suppose it's symbiotic,
- And perhaps a bit erotic.
- Scratchy:
- 'Cause pain is my narcotic.
- Itchy:
- You really liked it?
- Scratchy:
- Yes, I loved it.
- Both:
- And that's we're always
- Itchy:
- Fighting...
- Scratchy:
- And biting...
- Itchy:
- And dynamite igniting!
- Homer:
- Hey, check it out! I'm Scratcher or somethin'.
- Cast:
- It's the circle,
- The circle of knife!
- It's the circle,
- The circle of knives!
