Goo Goo Ga Ga
It was a strange road on a dark night
When suddenly there was a flash of light
And an old witch was standing there looking at me
And then in the car seat at the baby
And she said, "You're trespassing on my road!
I think I’m gonna turn you into a couple of toads!"
But before I could say a single word
This is what the witch and I heard

The baby said, "Goo goo ga ga
Coochie, coochie coo!"
And the old witch said, "Hey, that baby's cool!
You all go on ahead, I won't mess with you"
And we went on our way
And we were singing
Goo goo, ga ga and coochie, coochie coo!
It’s amazing what that little phrase can do
The old witch was singing and dancing too
Saying, "Goo goo ga ga
Coochie, coochie coo!"

It was the same night on that dark road
Wе came to a bridge guarded by an old troll
Hе shook his stick and he looked at me
And then in the car seat at the baby
And he said, "I'm a troll and I collect tolls
To cross this bridge costs a lot of dough!"
But before I could say a single word
This is what the troll and I heard

The baby said, "Goo goo ga ga
Cootchie, cootchie coo!"
And the old troll said, "Hey, that baby's cool!
I can tell than you're hip, just get on with your trip"
And we went over the bridge
And we were singing
Goo goo ga ga and coochie, coochie coo!
And the old troll was dancing and singing too
It's amazing what that little phrase can do
Goo goo ga ga and coochie, coochie coo!

That same night, just a little later
We came to a crazy old alligator
He had his knife and fork, and he looked at me
And then in the car seat at the baby
And he said, "Hey, you can't turn around and go back!
So I'm going to eat you for my midnight snack!"
But before I could say a single word
This is what the 'gator and I heard:
(Baby snores)

I started singing
"Goo goo ga ga and coochie, coochie coo!"
The ’gator started looking mighty confused
While he was deciding what he should do
We went our our way
And I was singing
"Goo goo ga ga and coochie, coochie coo!"
And the baby was sleeping and snoring too
It’s amazing what that little phrase can do
Goo goo ga ga and coochie, coochie coo!"

Goo goo ga ga and coochie, coochie coo!
The witch and the troll were singing too
The 'gator was still thinking what he should do
Goo goo ga ga and coochie, coochie coo!
Coochie, coochie coo!
Coochie, coochie coo!
