Animaniacs Theme Song
Sug by the Warners and the Animaniacs cast
Music by Richard Stone
Lyrics by Tom Ruegger
Warners: It's time for An-i-man-i-acs and we're zany to the max. So just sit back and relax. You'll laugh till
you collapse. We're An-i-man-i-acs
Yakko and Wakko: Come join the Warner brothers Dot: And the Warner
sister Dot Warners: Just for fun we run around the Warner movie lot. They lock us in the tower whenever we get caught.
But we break loose, and then vamoose, and now you know the plot
Warners: We're An-i-man-i-acs. Dot is cute and
Yakko yaks. Wakko packs away the snacks. While Bill Clinton plays the sax. We're An-i-man-i-acs
Warners: Meet
Pinky and the brain who want to rule the universe. Goodfeathers flock together, Slappy wacks 'em with her purse. Buttons chases
Mindy while Rita sings a verse. The writers flipped. We have no script. Why bother to rehearse?
A! cast: We're
An-i-man-i-acs. We have play for play contracts. We're zany to the max. There's baloney in our slacks. We're An-i-man-ee!
Totally and zany Dot: Here's the show's namey* An-i-man-i-acs! Those are the facts
*= this line of the song changes in many episodes, but that line is the original one used when A! premired in September
13, 1993.

I am the Very Model of a Cartoon Individual
Sung by Yakko Warner and his siblings
Music by Arthur Sullivan
Lyrics by Paul Rugg
Yakko: I am the very model of a cartoon individual My animation's comical, unusual and whimsical I'm quite
adept at funny gags; comedic theory I have read From wicked puns and stupid jokes to anvils that drop on your head.
I'm
very good at fancy dances; I can even pirouette Then smack the villain with a fish; I know my cartoon etiquette I can
make my face all mean and really give you quite a fright Then make up with flowers made of real exploding dynamite.
When
in a jam I just yell "stop" and villains in their tracks are froze Then I sneak up and utter "start" and take my hands
and honk their nose I am quite proud to be in such a hierarchial progeny From Daffy Duck and Tweety Bird to Babs and
Buster Bunny.
To suit my mood I can call forth a lot of different sceneries Like outer space and desert scapes and
Himalayan eateries From this bag here why I can pull most anything imaginable Like office desks and lava lights and
Bert who is a cannibal.
Warners: You see, in matters comical, unusual, and whimsical We are the very model
of cartoon individuals!

Yakko's Universe
Sung by Yakko Warner and his siblings
Music and lyrics by Randy Rogel
Yakko: Everybody lives on a street in a city or a village or a town for what it's worth.
And they're all inside a country which is part of a continent That sits upon a planet known as Earth. And the Earth
is a ball full of oceans and some mountains which is out there spinning silently in space.
And living on that Earth are the plants and the animals and also the entire human race It's a great big
universe and we're all really puny We're just tiny little specks about the size of Mickey Rooney It's big and black
and inky And we are small and dinky
It's a big universe and we're not
And we're part of a vast interplanetary system stretching seven hundred billion miles long. With nine planets and
a sun; we think the Earth's the only one that has life on it, although we could be wrong. Across the interstellar voids
are a billion asteroids including meteors and Halley's Comet too. And there's over fifty moons floating out there like
balloons In a panoramic trillion-mile view. And still it's all a speck amid a hundred billion stars In a galaxy
we call the Milky Way.
It's sixty thousand trillion miles from one end to the other and still that's just a fraction of the way.
'Cause there's a hundred billion galaxies that stretch across the sky filled with constellations, planets, moons and
stars. And still the universe extends to a place that never ends which is maybe just inside a little jar! Warners:
It's a great big universe and we're all really puny We're just tiny little specks about the size of Mickey Rooney.
Though we don't know how it got here we're an important part here It's a big universe and it's ours!
