CHEESE ROLL CALL (Episode P4)
Lyrics by Paul Rugg.
Sung to Semper Fidelis by John Philip Sousa.
Pinky: A world of cheeses
Deliciously made for you and me
Flavors like Provolone and Brie
Each with its own ethnicity.
So many cheeses
Are available all around the world for you to eat
Especially good with crackers and meat
A nice yummy treat.
Thousands of cheeses
The texture of some can be real gooey
Others are quite firm and chewy
Some are better when mildewy.
Bountiful cheeses
When you take a big whiff a few
Will make you want to spew
Especially strong is the cheese Remoudou
A real stinkeroo.
It's incredible just how many kinds there are
From countries near and far
It's really quite bizarre.
Now from the mouths of cheeses big and small
We proudly present to you
The cheese roll call.
*Wensleydale: I am the British cheese Wensleydale, lightly
* pressed and smooth textured with a subtle
* milky flavor which is clean and refreshing.
*
*Pinky: Welcome, Wensleydale!
*
*Cheddam: G'day! I am Australian Cheddam, an
* innocuous, golden yellow, rindless block
* inspired by Cheddar and Edam!
*
*Pinky: Welcome, Cheddam!
Edelpilzkäse: I am the German cheese Edelpilzkäse, a fine,
blue-veined cheese with a pale ivory paste
and very dark veins traveling vertically
through me.
Pinky: Welcome, Edelpil... Edel... oh, willkommen!
+Brie: I am the French cheese Brie, a soft,
+ unpressed, naturally drained cow's milk with
+ white rind flora, molded into large flat disks
+ and ripened for three to four weeks.
Pinky: Thank you, cheeses! I want to eat you all!
Pinky: Oh, how I like my cheeses
Cheese from around the world
Cheese is the taste that pleases
Cheese from around the world (sing with me, cheeses!)
+some: Oh, how I like my cheeses
Cheese from around the world (everybody!)
+all : Cheese is the taste that pleases
Cheese from around the world
Around this great big world
Around this big cheese world
Around this great big world
Around this big -- cheese -- world!
Pinky: Mmm... yummy! Narf!
* - On the "Variety Pack" album, Cheddam speaks before Wensleydale.
+ - Brie speaks only on the "Variety Pack" album.

Lyrics from BRAINANIA (Episode P5)
by John P. McCann
Brain: Spears in hand
We sail for Yap
We will wipe
Them off the...
Pinky: ...front porch!
Brain: Brainania
You nation of folks
Pinky: Here comes a guy
Selling watery Cokes.
Brain: We will fight
And never quit
Pinky: Find me a rooftop
And I will spit.
Narf!

Lyrics from MOUSE OF LA MANCHA (Episode P12)
by Gordon Bressack and Charles Howell IV
Don Cerebro (parody of Don Quixote)
Music by Peter Hastings.
Brain: Listen up, all you sniv'ling and cowardly mice
You may live in your cage if you please
But not I, for I've learned not to take just a slice
When I'm destined to have the whole cheese.
It is I, Don Cerebro, the mouse of La Mancha
I'm blessed with a huge frontal lobe
For a mouse with my power, it won't take an hour
I plan to take over the globe.
I plan to take over the globe.
Thanks to my huge frontal lobe.
Pinky: I'm Pinky; yes, I'm Pinky
I poit and I narf and I say "Egad!"
I botch up his plans, daily
Then he conks me when he's mad.
(conk!)
Brain: Pay attention, you nobles and peasants of Spain
You may think that I haven't a chance
But I have an immensely superior brain
Pinky: And he's wearing aluminum pants.
Brain: It is I, Don Cerebro... Pinky: I'm Pinky, yes...
...the mouse of La Mancha I'm Pinky
I'm blessed with a hu-- (THUD!) I'm poit and I naarr...ooh.
Brain?

To Scheme the Improbable Scheme
Brain: It's not important whether he succeeded or not. What's important is...
Brain: To scheme the improbable scheme
To plan the unthinkable plan
To build when your arms are too tiny
To walk in the suit of a man.
This is my fate
To conquer the earth
To play with the big boys
Though I lack the girth
To reach for the stars
On a whim or a dare
I could climb to the top
If I only could reach the first stair.
And the world doesn't know what they'll miss
If a mouse doesn't follow his dream
To scrawl with his last bit of graphite
To scheme the improbable scheme!
Lyrics from WHERE THE DEER AND THE MOUSEALOPES PLAY (Episode P28)
Music by Julie Bernstein.
Lyrics and dialog by Wendell Morris and Tom Sheppard.
Pittsburg is My Land (parody of This Land is Your Land)
Brain: Pittsburg is my land
It isn't your land
Go find your own land
'Cause this is my land.
Please find your way to
The nearest exit;
Pittsburg's for mousealopes only!
