YYakko

What da ya know? We actually did it!

We wrote a script.

We've written a show.

YYakko

800 pages.

We overdid it!

But we've still got a chance to get rich.

YYakko

We've just gotta make that pitch.

To the CEO who gives the go.

'Cause he's the guy says yes or no.

To make it into a movie so you see!

YYakko

Out the door, my friends and follow me!

Hey, where are we going?

YYakko

We're on our way to go see Mr. Plotz,

'Cause he's the man in charge who calls the shots.

He's really good, he's Hollywood,

And no one can deny.

He knows the biz 'cause he's a whiz.

And that, my friends, is why.

We're on our way to go see Mr. Plotz.

I hear he's got a plane and several yachts.

YYakko

'Cause he's successful; he's a genius,

He's the man who has it all.

Got a Bentley in his driveway.

And an Oscar on his wall.

He's the guy that Steven Spielberg wants to know.

I wanna know!

CCrowd

He's Mr. Plotz, the Warner CEO.

The script is great real first rate

That is why we just can't wait

To hear him say it's all a go

To make it into a movie so.

CCrowd

They're on their way to go see Mr. Plotz,

'Cause he’s the king of all the movie lots.

He takes a lunch with Streisand and she always pays the bill,

Plays golf with Arnold Palmer, hired Cecil B. DeMille!

He even made money on a movie with Don Knotts, my hero!

That's why we're on our way to go see Mr.

YWYakko and Wakko

Warner Brothers.

And Warner Sister.

On our way to go see Mr. Plah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah...

Ready or not, here we come!

Gonna see Mr. Plotz!

[They stop to see other producers are waiting in line to see Plotz as well]

YYakko

[to the viewers] So are the rest of people in town.

PPlotz

Who do you have in mind for the actors?

YYakko

They're terrible, they can't act!

PPlotz

That's bad.

YYakko

They're movie stars!

PPlotz

That's good!

YYakko

They're gonna want a lot of money!

PPlotz

That's bad.

YYakko

But we won't give it to 'em!

PPlotz

That's good!

YYakko

I see an Academy Award in the future!

PPlotz

That's good!

YYakko

But not for us.

PPlotz

That's bad.

YYakko

Spielberg's gonna direct.

PPlotz

That's good!

YYakko

But not this picture.

PPlotz

That's bad.

YYakko

But we got Zemeckis!

PPlotz

That's good!

YYakko

It's Freddy Zemeckis, from accounting.

PPlotz

That's bad.

YYakko

We cut the budget to the bare bones!

PPlotz

That's good!

YYakko

It'll cost a hundred million.

PPlotz

That's bad.

YYakko

What would you say if I stopped talking?

PPlotz

That's good!

YYakko

What if we just start singing?

PPlotz

That's bad.

YYakko

There are 50,000 diff'rent kinds of animals

And there are 50,000 more that used to be.

There's a hundred million ants and a half a billion plants

And a lot of fish down underneath the sea.

There's gotta be a couple million spiders,

A hundred 50,000,000 butterflies and bees,

And a bunch of different mammals like those elephants and camels

And approximately 50,000,000,000 trees!

YWYakko and Wakko

But there is only one of you; that makes you special.

You stand out among the other things, it's true!

Yes, the universe is large and whoever is in charge

Made lots of things but only one of you!

YYakko

A one and a two and a three and a four

A thousand and a million and a billion or more!

There's a trillion drops of water in the ocean,

And a billion trillion molecules of air.

There are insects here en masse, and a trillion blades of grass,

And a thousand strands on every head of hair.

A lot of little grains of dirt make up this planet,

Z billion atoms on the head of every pin,

A million birds that all can fly, a trillion stars up in the sky,

And all the many different people there have been!

But there is only one of you; that makes you special.

Yes, there is nothing else exactly like you are!

As you're unique and you're terrific and you're kinda built specific

'Cause there's no one else the same as the person you became.

In fact you're kind of weird!

YYakko

But we like you just the same!

'Cause you're the only one of you there are! Baba-dootin baba-dootin' baba-doo-bah!

In Hollywood, they have a certain way they like to talk.

It's used by all those folks who can't chew gum and also walk.

YYakko

It's found inside Variety, a movie magazine.

And everyone who reads it wonders what the headlines mean.

YYakko

Like "Mitch makes a pitch, and he's gonna get rich"...

Means someone's got a movie that sold.

YYakko

"Brando's mad, says the screenplay's bad"...

Means someone else was offered the role.

YYakko

It's called Fargo Two with a story that's new"...

Means they're gonna shoot it all in LA.

YYakko

"The budget got maxed, so someone got faxed"...

Everybody's on the carpet, so the writer got the axe.

Well, "Merchandise scores in the theme park stores"...

YYakko

And Disney is the king of the hill.

"Michael Ovitz in talks with 20th Fox"...

YYakko

Means he wants another ninety-three mil.

If you want the poop...

Or ya need the scoop...

YYakko

On Hollywood Town this week...

You're gonna have to learn to talk that Variety speak!

Bop-a-doo-bop, a-bop-a-doo-bah, Bop-a-doo-bop, a-bop-a-doo-bah!

YYakko

"Studio bomb, gets Oscar nom"...

Means all the actors gotta be Brits.

"Bronfman's play for MCA"...

YYakko

Means the Japanese are calling it quits.

"No scripts are new" means Jurassic Park 2...

And a trillion little dinosaur toys.

YYakko

"The cash flows nice, they're releasin' it twice"

Since it isn't out on video, they're jackin' up the price.

Well, "Studio Czar wants unknown star"...

YYakko

Means they couldn't get Robert Duvall.

But "They're in trouble again, doing Mice and Men"...

With Martin Short and Steven Seagal.

You gotta stay alive and if you wanna survive in Hollywood Town this week,

You're gonna have to learn to talk that Variety speak!

Bop-a-doo-bop, a-bop-a-doo-bah, Bop-a-doo-bop, a-bop-a-doo-bah!

YYakko

Normal talk makes producers walk...

You might as well speak Greek.

YYakko

You're gonna have to learn...

Or the meeting will adjourn...

Unless, my friend, you learn that Variety speak!

AAll

Bop-a-doo-bop, a-bop-a-doo-bah, bop-a-doo-bop, a-bop-a-doo-bah!

Bop, doo, bop, doo, bop, doo, bah, dah!

[During the parody of Independence Day in their own movie "Hooray for North Hollywood"]

I suggest we evacuate immediately.

YYakko

I already evacuated!

Me too! [farts] Oops! Twice.

Then the only thing left to do is...JUMP!

[The Warners jump from their water tower, scream and run, just as the spaceship destroys the water tower in half]

L.A. Dot, L.A. Dot,

That's the sign that the bus has got

Written up where everyone can see me,

L.A.D.O.T.

Spells L.A. Dot; Who'd've thought

The one so cute could be this hot?

The metro line has built a sign for me.

When I go walking down the street

All the folks I chance to meet

Will wave and smile and throw a fuss

'Cause I'm the girl whose name is on the metro bus!

And no else has that spot.

Meryl Streep and Cher do not,

Madonna, she is totally not.

No, the only name there's L.A. Dot!

'Cause I'm the best still, I'm floored;

Who'd have guessed I'm so adored?

You'd think I'd be conceited but I'm not.

CCrowd

No, no!

I'm just simple, humble, gorgeous L.A. Dot!

I'm overwhelmed. Quite a lot.

Blown away; I kid you not!

Who would have expected

For a sign to be erected

Saying L.A. Dot? But hey, why not?

I am a star from the Warner lot

Who they're thinkin' of 'cause they're all in love with me.

So if, my friends, you chance to spot

A great big bus with "L.A. DOT"

No need to ask or wonder why

You know that it was put there by

My loyal fans who clap their hands

And cheer while banging pots and pans

They'll greet me now with marching bands a lot.

CCrowd

Yeah, yeah!

Yes, they put me on the bus

So that every one of us

Could see that they love L...A...

YYakko

[spoken] Dot, excuse me, but that's not your name. L.A.D.O.T. stands for Los Angeles Department Of Transportation.

[spoken] Oh. Well. [singing]

You can find me on my web page spot.

It's www.dot.dot!

YWYakko and Wakko

Dot dot Dot!

Should auld acquaintance be forgot and everybody cheer.

We've managed somehow, friends, to make it through another year.

YYakko

Let's stay up late, let's celebrate, and then count down from ten

'Cause tomorrow when we wake up, guys, the whole thing starts again.

It's New Year's Eve and I'm a beaut

Dressed up in my tuxedo suit

Got a shirt and vest that are starched and pressed like new.

I do, and I'm lovin' the view!

'Cause it's New Year's Eve and I'm lookin' swell

With a white carnation in my lapel

Got a coat and tie and I can't deny it's true.

It's New Year's Eve and I do believe

I'll hit all of the restaurants in sight.

The party's at Sardi's and old Guy Lombardi's

Doing the countdown tonight.

YYakko

Well, it's New Year's Eve; let the party rock,

Let's dance, and then, when it's 12:00.

We'll sing them tunes and we'll pop balloons with a cheer!

CCrowd

Ear ear!

Bring out the confetti; we're ready. Hey, happy new year!

It's New Year's Eve, so let's all get dressed

In a tux or gown; when you look your best,

You're the belle of the ball, you're the one that they all came to see!

CCrowd

Happy new year!

Happy new you, my friend, and happy new me! Mwah!

May auld acquaintance be forgot on New Year's Eve, they say.

Let's give a cheer; a brand-new year will soon be here to stay.

YYakko

Let's drink our fill o' sasparilla.

We're too young for champagne.

And every New Year's Eve. It's time to scream and go insane!

YYakko

It's New Year's Eve and it's almost here.

We'll dance and swing from the chandelier

And we'll all go nuts. When the ribbon cuts, we'll cheer.

Dot': When midnight comes, we'll cut a rug.

We'll toast each other and kiss and hug

As the shouters and screamers throw all of those streamers right here.

It's New Year's Eve, but don't you grieve

'Cause another year's headed our way.

It's gonna be great 'cause we're stayin' up late

Then tomorrow we'll sleep in all day.

It's New Year's Eve; gonna have a blast

YYakko

The new one's here and the old one's past

So forget your worry And everyone hurry, you hear?

It's okay, be a jerk, go berserk; Have a happy new year!

[The Warners repeatedly change their seating arrangement]

EEd

Knock it off! We're in a car here. Just pick your seats!

Will they let us do that on TV?

YYakko

Goodnight, everybody!

EEd

[annoyed] Forget it! [to Dot] You wanna sit here? Fine, I'll move over. You can sit here, [to Wakko] and you can sit next to the window. Okay, everyone happy? Is there anything else you'd like?

YYakko

Yeah, my breakfast. I have a bagel with cream cheese on it.

EEd

So?

YYakko

So...you're sitting on it, Ed.

EEd

Oh, ugh! [takes the bagel with cream cheese out from under him] Oh, these pants were just cleaned!

YYakko

Are you sure?

EEd

Yes!

YYakko

Okay, then. [eats the bagel with cream cheese] Oh, did you want a bite?

EEd

[to Phil] Just drive, Phil, okay?! Just drive!

[Last lines; Slappy's tree is replaced with the Warner Bros. Water Tower at the Rocky Fellow Center]

YYakko

Hey! Quiet down there!

We're trying to sleep!

AND SHUT OFF THOSE LIGHTS!!!

[All the lights are turned off around New York City as the cartoon ends]
