[mouth noises]
Iron Man!
[screams]

That's fine!
Tiger spine!
Work out!
Monza blocks!
Light switch!
Roaches' smocks!
Ice cream!
What a dream!
Memories of
Flyin' machines!

Green Lantern!
Funny lizard!
Three-way!
Out'sight!
Buddy learns!
See Spot run!
Work out!
Have some fun!
Yeah ...
[screams]

[screams]

Wilhelmina!
Mildew!
[screams]
Billboard!
Night light!
Hammerhead!
Outta sight!

In Baghdad
Roaches fly!
Outta sight!
'Cross the grassy sky!
Anvils fly!
Mountains burp!
Turpentine!
[Deano/Duno/Tuna/Tina werp?]
Lord gosh!
Oooh ...
[Rush eye / Musheye?] ...

[harp imitation, screams and coughs]

What's that noise?
Looks like green!
Maybe it's purple?
[Spotlight / Spot eye?]!
Hammer law?
Bend iron!
So fine ...
Tiger Roach!
