Lyrics

Part one

Bleeding Gums Murphy sound-alike:

Scratch that itch,

Scratch that itch,

The lotto's gonna make you rich.

Lisa:

Hey, that's a Bleeding Gums Murphy song. But they changed the lyrics. He never would've sung this garbage.

Bleeding Gums Murphy sound-alike:

Only a dollar,

Scratch and you'll holler.

Part two

Bleeding Gums Murphy sound-alike:

Get in it to win it.

It just takes a minute.

Neither the state lottery nor any of their employees,

Or agents make any warranty express or implied,

Including warranties of merchantability and fitness,

For a particular purpose or assumed liability,

For the accuracy, completeness or usefulness,

Of information from this song.

Part three

Homer:

Only a dollar,

Scratch and you'll holler.

I've got a one-in-50 million chance to win.

Part four

Barney:

Scratch that itch,

Milhouse:

Scratch that itch,

Sideshow Mel:

I can buy a diamond collar,

For my bitch.

Bumblebee Man:

Sólo un dólar.

Scratch y usted llegará holler.

Singers:

That's the end of our pitch.
