We Love To Smoke

The contents of this article or section are based on a deleted scene found in one of the DVD boxsets. It is considered to be non-canon and therefore may not have actually happened/existed.

We Love to Smoke is a song originally meant for the episode "Simpsoncalifragilisticexpiala(Annoyed Grunt)cious" sung by Patty and Selma Bouvier, but it was cut because it did not receive any laughs. A demo recording exists of the song featuring Julie Kavner singing with just a piano, guitar, bass, and drums without a full orchestra. It was to be a parody of the song "I Love to Laugh" from the film Mary Poppins and also contains a reference to another song from that film, "Chim Chim Cherr-ee". The music was written by Alf Clausen and the lyrics by Al Jean and Mike Reiss. It is the first bonus track on the album Go Simpsonic with the Simpsons. The song is included in a deleted scene in the Season 8 DVD Boxset. However, only the last four lines of the song were used.

Lyrics

Patty:

We love to smoke. (wheezes)

Selma:

Until our lungs turn gray.

We love to smoke. (wheezes)

Patty:

Seventy packets a day.

(Selma coughs)

Patty:

We love to smoke! (chokes and rasps)

Selma:

Like a chim-chiminey.

Although, we'll croak (hacks and chokes)

Patty:

Before 2003.

(Shary Bobbins, Bart, Lisa, Maggie Patty and Selma wheeze and cough until the end of the song. The smoke forms two gravestones with 'Patty' and 'Selma' written on them)
