Cooties Songtext

von Hairspray

AIMEE ALLEN
They came from way far out
In outer space
She's hard to miss
And so they landed on her face
She's got cooties
They've found a place to nest
She's got cooties
If I were I'd be depressed
Long tailed, sharp nailed
Fuzzy legs, laying egg

?Oh no? Get ?em away!?

In science class
She's like a walking show-and-tell
Her pet skunk ran away
'Cause it couldn't take the smell
She's got cooties
Nobody want to sit by her
She's got cooties
Don't need a coat
'Cause she's got fur!
Circle, circle,
Dot, dot, dot
Glad I got my cootie shot!

"Come on boys, let's stamp 'em out!"

BOYS
She's got cooties

AIMEE
She's just as friendly as can be

BOYS
She's got cooties

AIMEE
She shows them cootie hospitality

BOYS
She's got cooties

AIMEE
She's like a living "twilight zone"

BOYS
She's got cooties

?Quick, get Rod Serling on the phone!?

Black, white, red, green
Every color in between
Dresses like a circus clown
Somebody oughta hose her down
Grew up in a cootie zoo
I bet her two-ton mama's got 'em too!

CRAZED MAN
?She's coming!?

AIMEE
She's just as friendly as can be
She shows them cootie hospitality
This girlie's sure to catch your eye
She surely likes to let her freak flag fly

Come on boys!
Let's dacne!
Let's stamp ?em out!

Black, white, red, green
Every color in between
Dresses like a circus clown
Somebody oughta hose her down
Grew up in a cootie zoo
I bet her two-ton mama's got 'em too!
