Lyrics

CONNIE: Kookie, Kookie, lend me your comb. Kookie, Kookie? EDD: Well now, let's take it from the top and grab some wheels And on the way we'll talk about some cuckoo deals CONNIE: But Kookie, Kookie, lend me your comb. Kookie, Kookie? EDD: Now you're on my wavelength, and I'm reading you just fine Don't cut out of here til we get on Cloud Nine! CONNIE: But Kookie, Kookie? EDD: I got smog in my noggin, ever since you made the scene (You're the utmost!) If you ever tune me out Dad, I'm the saddest, like I'm green (The very utmost!) CONNIE: Kookie, lend me your comb. Kookie, Kookie? EDD: Man, I got my burners lighted, and my flaps are gonna bend You're gonna send me to that planet called—you know it, baby—the end! CONNIE: Kookie, Kookie, lend me your comb. Kookie, Kookie? EDWARD: If you ever cut out, then I'd be a stray cat 'Cause when I'm flyin' solo, nowhere's where I'm at! CONNIE: Kookie, Kookie, lend me your comb. Kookie, Kookie? EDWARD: What's with this comb caper, baby?! Why do you wanna latch onto my comb?! CONNIE: I just want you to stop combing your hair... and kiss me. You're the maximum utmost! EDD: Well, I'm beamed and I'm dreamsville and I'm movin' right now, cause that's the kind of scene that I dig! Baby...you're the ginchiest
