Lyrics[]
- Wakko:
- She's the woman of the year,
- Independent, a career,
- There's not a thing that she couldn't do.
- Oh, she's alert, she's aware,
- She's got legs like Astaire
- And a hundred-fifty-seven IQ.
- She has several Ph.D.s,
- Speaks fluent Japanese,
- And her shoes will always match with her purse.
- Whatever street she's walkin' down,
- Everybody turns around
- And says...
- Yakko and Wakko:
- HellOOOOOOOOOOOOO, NURSE!!!
- Wakko:
- She likes cheese and pepperoni,
- Won a Pulitzer and a Tony,
- She played the leading role in King Lear.
- She never drinks, she never smokes,
- She never laughs at dirty jokes,
- She was ambassador to China last year.
- Oh, she's politically correct,
- She'd never collect,
- She plays Chopin and she doesn't rehearse.
- And when she's walkin' by,
- I give a little sigh
- And say...
- Yakko and Wakko:
- HellOOOOOOOOOOOOO, NURSE!!!
- Wakko:
- She gets her math equations right,
- She reads Tolstoy every night,
- She won the Nobel Prize in physics. It's true.
- She drives a shiny new Corvette,
- Sings opera at the Met,
- And volunteers her time at the zoo.
- She won a scholarship to Yale,
- Got her Fulbright in the mail,
- And took a two-year junior college degree.
- She's manna sent from heaven!
- Too bad I'm only seven
- 'Cause, Hello Nurse,
- I wish you'd take care of me!
- Yakko and Wakko:
- If she's not everything that we've said,
- Then may lightning strike us dead!
- (A flash of lightning singes them)
- HellOOOOOOOOOOOOO, NURSE!!!
Goofs[]
- Wakko sings that he is seven. In an interview with Tom Ruegger, however, he states that he's actually eleven years old. This was to keep the meter in the song, as "eleven" has too many syllables to be a good rhyme with "heaven".
- Wakko sings that Hello Nurse has an IQ of 157, but in Wakko's Wish, she says that she has an IQ of 192.
