WHAT A GAS!

(SUNG BY DR. FRITZ VON NOZZLE)

 

HELLO THERE BURT, HELLO THERE KURT

WON'T YOU PLEASE TUCK IN YOUR SHIRTS?

AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE ARE MANY THINGS 

THAT CAN SPILL OR SIMPLY SPURT

ALLOW ME PLEASE TO INTRODUCE

MY HUMBLE SELF TO BOTH OF YOUSE

MY NAME IS DOCTOR FRITZ VON NOZZLE

THE GAS I MAKE I STORE IN BOZZLES

I UNDERSTAND YOU THAT YOU HAVE COME

TO FILL YOUR JARS WITH PERHAPS SOME

OF MY NEW MIXTURES AND CONCOCTIONS?

TO TRANSFER THEM WE WILL NEED SUCTION

A SPRITZ OF THIS, A SQUIRT OF THOSE

A SWIZZLE STICK GOES TO AND FROSE

THEN OVER HEAT, I BRING MY BEAKER

TIPTOE UP AND TAKE A PEEKER

WHAT A GAS I HAVE IN HERE!

WHAT A GAS! YES IT IS CLEAR

WHAT A GAS, I SO LOVE MIXING!

WHAT'S THE GAS I HAVE BEEN FIXING?

I'VE MADE SOME HYDROGEN AND LOWDROGEN

SOME SPEEDIUM AND SLOWDROGEN

LOOP-D'LOOPOGEN AND POOP-POOP-D'DOOPOGEN

SOME SILLIUM, SOME SERIOUS

BORON AND CURIOUS

HALF AN ITTY BITTY LITER OF SOME PETERPUMPKINETHER

PROPANE AND AMATEURIC 

MIXED WITH TRICK NEON FROM ZURICH 

FUNNY THING, IT MAKES ME LAUGH

I'VE USED ALL MY LAUGHING GAS!

SO STEP RIGHT UP AND POP YOUR STOPPERS

I'LL FILL YOUR JARS TO THE TOPPERS!

WHAT A GAS YOU'LL HAVE WITH THESE!

WHAT, A GAS? NO THEY WON'T FREEZE

WHAT A GAS, ENJOY MY GASSES!

NOW CAN YOU HELP ME FIND MY GLASSES?
