Banana.

Banana.

Banana.

CELINA: Oh, thank you, Alice.

And banana to you, too.

ALICE: Banana.

CELINA: You know, when I was little, I loved learning

silly-sounding words.

And I would say them over and over and over again, just like

Alice does.

CARLO: Yeah, me too.

One of my favorite words was snorkel.

I loved saying that.

Snorkel.

CELINA: Snorkel?

You know what I get a kick out of?

Tweezers.

[SINGING]

Oh, don't you know any silly-sounding words, that are

fun to say and hear, that feel absurd coming out of your

mouth and tickle going in your ear?

CARLO: Words like snorkel.

CELINA: And tweezers.

CARLO: And flapjack.

CELINA: And snoot.

CARLO: Not to mention hubbub.

CELINA: And mugwump.

CARLO: And tweak!

CELINA: Tweak!

CARLO: Snorkel, snorkel, snorkel, snorkel--

ALL: Snorkel, snorkel, snorkel, snorkel.

CELINA: Flapjak, flapjack.

ALL: Flapjack, flapjack, flapjack.

TELLY: Mugwump, mugwump, mugwump, mugwump.

Ahaha!

Mugwump, mugwump, mugwump, mugwump.

CARLO: Flapjack, flapjack.

Flapjack, flapjack, flapjack.

CELINA: Snorkel, snorkel, snorkel, snorkel, snorkel,

snorkel, snorkel, snorkel, snorkel.

Snorkel!

Very good, Alice.

LEXINE: I know another silly-sounding word.

Aardvark.

TELLY: How about bassoon?

CARLO: And fussbudget.

ALICE: And rutabaga.

TELLY: Sassafrass!

CARLO: And smudge.

CELINA: Hey, how about flibbertigibbet?

TELLY: No--

flibbertigibbet?

ROSITA: Is there really such a word?

CELINA: Certainly.

Oh, how I love the liberty of saying words like flibberti.

ALL: Fliberty, fliberty, flibbertigibbet.

CARLO: I could repeat from now 'til noon, sassafras,

fussbudget, rutabaga, bassoon.

ALL: Sassafrass, fussbudget, rutabaga, bassoon.

TELLY: Not even a pile of chocolate fudge could please

me more than saying smudge.

ALL: His mouth loves the feel of saying smudge.

Smudge, smudge, smudge!

Oh, what a pleasure it is to speak, when we speak words

like aardvark--

TELLY: And flapjack--

CELINA: And mugwump.

ALL: And tweak!

CELINA: I'm gonna tweak your cheek.

CARLO: Snorkel, snorkel, snorkel, snorkel.

TELLY: Mugwump, mugwump, mugwump, mugwump.

LEXINE: Rutabaga, rutabaga, rutabaga, rutabaga.

CELINA: Snoot.

Snoot.

ALL: Flapjack, rutabaga, aardvark, hubbub, bassoon,

mugwump, tweezers, snoot, sassafras, smudge, fussbudget,

snorkel, flibbertigibbet, and tweak.

ALICE: Banana!

ALL: That too!
