    Lyrics: You got a scratch and you need help stat! Mmm boy, we got a bandaid that’ll fix it like that! You’ve been complaining of that aching in your tummy, well we’ve got some tums—that even taste yummy.

    Just one little poke and you’ll float far far away, here comes a little pinch, oh? Read more…
