Lyrics

Episode version

Gabbo:

You're gonna like me!

You're gonna love me!

Cuz I can do most anything!

I can do the hully-gully!

[dances]

I can imitate Vin Scully!

[as Scully] Let's take time-out from this triple play to talk about Farmer Dan's Pure Pork Sausages, mmm-hmm!

[normal voice]

I'll give out shiny dimes!

[banjo plays "We're in the Money"]

I'll travel back in time!

Dolls:

You're gonna like him!

You're going to love him!

All:

It's the greatest show in tow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-own!

GABBO!

Krusty:

Aah, that dummy doesn't scare me. I've had plenty of guys come after me and I've buried 'em all: hobos, sea captains, Joey Bishop.

Woman:

Don't forget the Special Olympics.

Krusty:

Oh, yeah. I slaughtered the Special Olympics. (laughs)
