Lyrics
Caribbean Green: And now, ladies and gentlemen, it's time for our special guest star, comedian, actress, singer and vey nice lady, Miss Forest Green.

Forest Green: Uh, gentlemen, lady...

Beaver: What?

Purple Heart: What seems to be the problem, Forest Green?

Forest Green: Well, uh, that music, it doesn't seem to be the right music. May l see it, please?

Beaver: Yeah, well, it seems normal to me.

Purple Heart: Yeah, just your ordinary, vey elaborate pretentious orchestration. What's it called?

Forest Green: Elaborate Pretensions for Orchestras. Uh, couldn't we just do that nice, simple piece?

Purple Heart: Well, how about a nice, simple Latin American riff? (hums the conga)

Turquoise Blue: Arriba!

Purple Heart: No Latin stuff tonight.

Forest Green: No. No, thank you. It's that sweet, simple duet that l rehearsed with Outrageous Orange. Where is Outrageous Orange?

Beaver: l know how that one goes. It goes like this...

Forest Green: Oh, yes. Thank you. That's it. (singing) Won't you play a simple melody Like my mother sang to me One with good old-fashioned harmony Play a simple melody Outrageous Orange? Outrageous Orange?

Outrageous Orange: Here I am, Forest Green.

Forest Green: You forgot something.

Outrageous Orange: Oh, I never forget.

Forest Green: Where's your ukulele?

Outrageous Orange: Oh, I forgot!

Forest Green: You're a dingbat.

Outrageous Orange: I was only kidding. Go! Musical demon Set your honey a-dreamin' Won't you play me some rag Just change that classical nag To some sweet beautiful drag

Forest Green: If you will play from a copy Of a tune that is choppy You'll get all my applause And that is simply because l want to listen to rag

Outrageous Orange: Musical demon Set your honey a-dreamin' Won't you play me some rag Just change that classical nag To some sweet beautiful drag If you will play from a copy Of a tune that is choppy You'll get all my applause And that is simply because l want to listen to rag

Forest Green: Play a simple melody Like my mother sang to me One with good old-fashioned harmony Play a simple melody

Outrageous Orange: Come on, everybody!

Forest Green: Musical demon Set your honey a-dreamin' Won't you play me some rag Just change that classical nag To some sweet beautiful drag If you will play from a copy Of a tune that is choppy You'll get all my applause And that is simply because l want to listen to rag

Everyone: Won't you play a simple melody Like my mother sang to me

Outrageous Orange: A little loudly now.

Everyone: One with good old-fashioned harmony Play a simple melody

Outrageous Orange: Now you!

Forest Green: l want to listen to rag.

Outrageous Orange: Me! l want to listen to rag! Now eveyone!

Everyone: I wanna listen to rag!

Tan: Boy, that number was something else!

Tumbleweed: You mean it was good?

Tan: No, it was something else.
