Album: Hairspray: Soundtrack to the Motion Picture
They came from way far out
In outer space
She's hard to miss
So they landed on her face
She's got cooties!
They've found a place to nest
She's got cooties!
If I were her I'd be depressed
Long tailed, sharp nailed
Fuzzy legs, laying eggs
"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 wants 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!"
She's got cooties!
She's just as friendly as can be
She's got cooties!
She shows them cootie hospitality
She's like a living "Twilight Zone"
She's got cooties!
"Quick, uh, can you get Rod Sterling 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!
"SHE'S COMING!"
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 dance!
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!
