Animaniacs - The Senses Song lyrics

rate me

Yakko: The sense of sight<br />

Is what guides us right<br />

When we go out on walks.<br />

Wakko: The sense of smell's<br />

The way you tell<br />

That you need to change your socks.<br />

Dot : The sense of touch<br />

Is what hurts so much<br />

When you bang your toe on the bed.<br />

Yakko: The sense of hearing is something good<br />

'Cause if a tree falls in the wood<br />

Would there be a sound? You bet there would<br />

If it landed on top of your head<br />

YW+D : Your head<br />

If a tree lands on top of your head!<br />

<br />

Wakko: The sense of taste<br />

Affects your waist<br />

Yakko: Which makes five senses in all.<br />

Dot : There's a sixth sense, too, but it's hard to explain<br />

It's a psychic connection inside of your brain<br />

So you can understand people like Shirley MacLaine<br />

Yakko: Who wear crystals they bought in the mall<br />

YW+D : The mall<br />

Who wear crystals they bought in the mall!<br />

<br />

Yakko: And now the other senses!<br />

<br />

Dot : There are scents you can smell<br />

Like cologne from Chanel<br />

Or the scents of expensive perfume.<br />

Yakko: There are scents of flowers<br />

We hope overpowers<br />

The kitty box next to your room.<br />

Phew!<br />

Wakko: There's a sense of pride<br />

You have deep down inside<br />

Yakko: When you practice a sense of fair play.<br />

Dot : There are dollars and cents that you pay at a toll<br />

Yakko: Or the census man who is taking a poll<br />

Wakko: And a sense of confusion; we're out of control<br />

YW+D : And they really should take us away<br />

Away<br />

They really should take us away!<br />

<br />

Dot : There's a sense of humor<br />

A sense of doom, or<br />

A sense of awe, sense of timing.<br />

Yakko: The sense of a word<br />

A sense of absurd<br />

Like trying to do all this rhyming!<br />

Dot : There's incense<br />

Wakko: And horse sense<br />

Yakko: And common sense, it's true.<br />

Dot : Sense of wonder, sense of beauty<br />

Wakko: Sense of honor, sense of duty<br />

Yakko: A sense of doubt, a sense of danger<br />

Dot : A sense of fear, when you meet a stranger<br />

Wakko: A sense of style, a sense of worth<br />

Yakko: A sense of direction for knowing the earth<br />

YW+D : A sense of dread as we're singing this song<br />

That it's starting to turn out completely all wrong<br />

And it's time that we end it because it's too long<br />

'Cause it just doesn't make any sense<br />

Nonsense<br />

This song doesn't make any sense!
