Tracy Turnblad, this is for you
They came from way far out
In outer space
Ah-woo
And with her help
They may destroy the human race
She's got cooties!
Cooties
They've found a place to nest
She's got cooties
Cooties
If I were her I'd be depressed
Long tailed, sharp nailed
Fuzzy legs, laying eggs
Eww, get 'em away from me
Get 'em away from me ew!!
In science class
She's like a walking show-and-tell
Ah-woo
Her pet skunk ran away
'Cause it couldn't take the smell
She's got cooties
Cooties
Nobody want to sit by her
She's got cooties
Cooties
She don't need a coat
'Cause she's got fur!
Circle, circle
Dot, dot, dot
Hurry, get your cootie shot!
Come on everybody, let's stamp 'em out!
She's got cooties
Cooties
She's just as friendly as can be
She's got cooties
Cooties
She shows them cootie hospitality
She's got cooties
Cooties
She's like a living Twilight Zone
She's got cooties
Cooties
Quick, get Rod Sterling on the phone!
Black, white, red, green
Every colour 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!
And that's for you!
