I think of Sora and her crest with this passage:

NIV 1 Corinthians 13

If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

WAKKO'S AMERICA
Music traditional (Turkey in the Straw). Lyrics by Randy Rogel.

Wakko:
Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Indianapolis, Indiana
And Columbus is the capital of Ohio
There's Montgomery, Alabama, south of Helena, Montana
Then there's Denver, Colorado, under Boise, Idaho.

Texas has Austin, then we go north
To Massachusetts' Boston, and Albany, New York
Tallahassee, Florida, and Washington, D.C.
Santa Fe, New Mexico, and Nashville, Tennessee.
Elvis used to hang out there a lot, ya know.

Trenton's in New Jersey, north of Jefferson, Missouri
You've got Richmond in Virginia; South Dakota has Pierre
Harrisburg's in Pennsylvania and Augusta's up in Maine
And here is Providence, Rhode Island, next to Dover, Delaware.

Concord, New Hampshire, just a quick jaunt
To Montpelier, which is up in Vermont
Hartford's in Connecticut, so pretty in the fall
And Kansas has Topeka; Minnesota has St Paul.

Juneau's in Alaska and there's Lincoln in Nebraska
And it's Raleigh out in North Carolina and then
There's Madison, Wisconsin, and Olympia in Washington
Phoenix, Arizona, and Lansing, Michigan.

Here's Honolulu; Hawaii's a joy
Jackson, Mississippi, and Springfield, Illinois
South Carolina with Columbia down the way
And Annapolis in Maryland on Chesapeake Bay.
They have wonderful clam chowder.

Cheyenne is in Wyomin' and perhaps you make your home in
Salt Lake City out in Utah, where the Buffalo roam
Atlanta's down in Georgia, and there's Bismarck, North Dakota
And you can live in Frankfort in your old Kentucky home.

Salem in Oregon; from there we join
Little Rock in Arkansas; Iowa's got Des Moines
Sacramento, California; Oklahoma and its city
Charleston, West Virginia, and Nevada, Carson City.
That's all the capitals there are!

YAKKO'S UNIVERSE
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!

Yakko, Wakko + Dot: 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!

'TWAS THE DAY BEFORE CHRISTMAS
by Randy Rogel and Tom Ruegger

Slappy: Skippy! You should have been asleep hours ago.
Skippy: I know, Aunt Slappy, but I can't sleep; I keep hearing
Santa's sleigh.
Slappy: Ah, that's just the LAPD choppers. Santy's not coming until you're asleep, kiddo, so get to bed.
Skippy: But I'm not tired! Tell me a story, pleeease!
Slappy: Ah, for the love of Al Gore... All right -- one story, then dreamland, OK?
Skippy: Promise!
Slappy: OK, let's see... Oh! You wanna hear about the time I stuffed live piranha down the pants of Sonny Tufts?
Skippy: No! A Christmas story!
Slappy: Sonny was drinking egg nog at the time...!
Skippy: No, Aunt Slappy. Just read.
Slappy: All right already, Mister Story Editor. Sheesh! [hawks]
Skippy: Speeew!
Slappy: Ahem. "The Day Before Christmas":

Slappy: 'Twas the day before Christmas, in winter's deep freeze
But in Burbank, L.A., it was ninety degrees.
Now, tonight is the night Santa comes to the lot
Bringing presents for Yakko, Wakko, and Dot.
The kids were excited; they rushed to prepare
But others looked on with a growing despair.

Plotz: These gifts for the Warners, someone's got to see to it They must be delivered; I want you to do it.
DrSns: But I did it last year, or have you forgot Those kids drove me bonkies, and kissed me a lot. They made me stay up singing carols all night And then I got creamed in that big pillow fight.
Nurse: But why bring them presents, when Santa will do?
Plotz: It's a clause in their contract: if we don't, they can sue. There must be a person who'll deliver this stuff But where can I find someone stupid enough?
Ralph: Duh, good night, Mr. Costner; go ahead, pass on by Merry Christmas.
Mindy: Okay, I love ya, bye-bye!
Ralph: Good night, Mr. Hippo.
Flavio: Good night to you, too
Marita: Come along, Flavio; we've more shopping to do!
Runt: I'm hungry.
Rita: Be quiet! We don't want to get caught There might be some trash cans with food on the lot.
Ralph: Duh, good night, Mr. Keaton; that's a lovely sedan
Plotz: Give him a Santa suit! Ralph is our man!

Yakko: So, 'twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house
Dot: Some creatures were stirring,
Wakko: including a mouse.
Brain: Tonight, my dear Pinky, our plan is unfurled We steal Santa's sleigh and take over the world!
Pinky: Brain, you're a genius. You simply [whack!] astound me
Brain: Aaaaaaaahhhh!
Pinky: Narf! Brain's gonna pound me.
Dot: The stockings were hung so our names clearly showed
Wakko: In the hopes that old Santa would leave a big load!
Yakko: Mwah! Goodnight everybody!
Yakko: The children were nestled all fast in their beds
Wakko: While visions of sugarplums danced in our heads.
Wakko: [munch] Deee-licious!
Yakko: We were all feeling tired when we turned out the light [click...]
[...click] Forget it; there's no way I'm sleeping tonight.
Dot: When out on the lot there arose such a rumble
Yakko: We sprang from our beds
Wakko: and we all took a tumble.
Yakko: And what to our wondering eyes did we view...?
Dot: But a cat and a dog in the garbage -- peyoo!
Yakko: Then, to our surprise, we heard distant banters Of a miniature sleigh and eight pigeons with antlers.
Pesto: I'm dying here, ooh!
Squit: This sure ain't no fun
Bobby: The guy in the suit, he must weigh a ton!
Dot: With a little old driver so lively and quick
Wakko: We knew in a moment it must be St. Nick!
Ralph: Duh, now Bobby, now Squit, now Pesto, now Vixen! On Comet! On Cupid! On Richard and Nixon! To the top of the tower, come on now, let's fly!
Pesto: I just got a hernia thanks to this guy!
Yakko: So up to the rooftop, Santa was hurled!
Brain: As soon as it lands, we'll take over the world! [wham, stomp] Pinky, I am in considerable pain
Pinky: Narf! Zort! Poit! Gat! I'm with you, Brain.
Yakko: It was a time of excitement; the moment drew near
Dot: There was no doubt about it;
Wakko: Santa was here!
Squit: Your antlers look cute, Pesto.
Pesto: All right, that's it! [fights]
Bobby: Ho, Pesto, it's Christmas; quit whackin' on Squit!
Yakko: And while the pigeons with antlers were having their kicks Santa fell through the roof like a sack full of bricks.
Dot: He was dressed all in fur, with a glaze in his eyes 'Cause the fall knocked him silly.
Ralph: Uh, Happy Easter, you guys!
Wakko: His face, how it twinkled! His dimples, how merry!
Dot: His cheeks were like roses.
Yakko: His gut, that was scary.
Wakko: He spoke not a word, but instead went right to it He emptied his bag.
Ralph: Uh, that ought to do it!
Yakko: Then laying a finger inside of his nose
Yakko: Which the dear network censor finds totally gross.
Wakko: Lumbering, up the tree trunk he rose!
Dot: He sprang to his sleigh, and signalled the flock
Ralph: Duh, giddyup birdies!
Yakko: Then they dropped like a rock.
Wakko: And we heard him exclaim, from up high in the sky
Santa: Season's greetings to all!
Yakko: And we saw him fly by.
Runt: Thanks Santa!
Rita: We mean it!
Runt: Yeah, thanks a whole lot!
Santa: And Merry Christmas to Yakko, Wakko, and Dot!

Skippy: And Merry Christmas, Aunt Slappy, and to you girls and boys As for me...[yawn]...I'm going downstairs to open my toys!!!

Theme to STEVEN SPIELBERG PRESENTS PINKY AND THE BRAIN
Music by Richard Stone. Lyrics by Tom Ruegger.

They're Pinky and The Brain
Yes, Pinky and The Brain
One is a genius
The other's insane.
They're laboratory mice
Their genes have been spliced
They're dinky
They're Pinky and The Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain
Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain
Brain.

Before each night is done
Their plan will be unfurled
By the dawning of the sun
They'll take over the world.

They're Pinky and The Brain
Yes, Pinky and The Brain
Their twilight campaign
Is easy to explain.
To prove their mousey worth
They'll overthrow the Earth
They're dinky
They're Pinky and The Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain
Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain
Narf!

Brain:
I am a lab mouse
I escaped from my cage
Never had a job
Never earned minimum wage
But you will respect me -- YES!
Once my plan is unfurled
You will call me your leader
I'll be King Of The World.

King's Lullaby
Yakko, Wakko + Dot: Hush little King; please don't cry
We're going to sing you a lullaby
A big scary monster man is coming for you
He'll gobble you up like chunky beef stew.
Mmmwah!
Goodnight!

Lyrics from HOT, BOTHERED AND BEDEVILED by John P. McCann
You're in Hades Now
Chorus girls: You plunge into the fire and it's really hot
You have to stay forever whether you like it or not
Where the torment never ends
You've got fiery brimstone and demons for friends
You're in Hades now, for eternity
Hope you're not too choosy 'bout your company!

Purgatory, Here We Come (parody of California, Here I Come)
Yakko, Wakko +Dot: Purgatory, here we come So long hate and devil scum
Yakko: Where fires will spire into the night
Wakko, Dot: Where boulders will smolder...
Yakko, Wakko + Dot: ...sizzling bright
Yakko: The afterlife's cruel politics
Charon: Sends us on the river Styx
Yakko: At our feet flames take their licks
YWD+C: Oh, Purgatory, here we come!

He's the boss; they call him ...er... call him...

Pinky: We're in the woods, all dark and inky
To conquer the world go Brain and ...la la something...
Brain: Pinky. Pinky: Oh. That fits. Narf.

Lyrics from CUTIE AND THE BEAST by Kevin Hopps
Be a Pest (parody of Be Our Guest)
Yakko: You know, if she keeps on being pushy
She'll be thrown out on her tushie
Wakko: All she needs is his affection
Yakko: What he needs is police protection.
For a beast, he is the very, very best
Y+W: But she's a pest, she's a pest, she's a pest!
(Taz throws them out)
Taz: And don't come back!
(but they do)

Yakko: Uhhh, you're Taz, aren't you.
Taz: Uh, me no Taz!
Wakko: Could you do that thing -- that funny thing that you do?
Taz: Waulgh!
Wakko: No, that's not it!
Taz: Umm... Waigh ih ih ih ih!
Yakko: Nah, that's not it either. Y'know -- the funny thing!
Dot: Can we finish this cartoon??
Yakko: All right...
YW+D : (sung) We are pests, we are pests, we are pests!

What Do You Do With Children Like Us Warners?
(parody of How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria?)

Nanny: Oh, come now. The children can't possibly be as beastly as all that. Dr. Scratchnsniff: They're not; they're worse. They put termites in my pants
Filled my coffee cup with ants
Then they shoved some macaroni up my nose
Ralph: Up his nose!
Nurse: Always giving me a kiss
Ralph: They sneak up on me like this
Dr. Scratchnsniff: Ate my toupee
Nurse: And my lipstick
Ralph: And my clothes!
Nurse: They pop out of cookie jars
Ralph: Slide a drawer and there they ares
Dr. Scratchnsniff: I once found them whirling round inside my ear
Ralph: Inside his ear!
SR+N : There is nowhere they can't hide
Ralph: Eats a doughnut; they's inside
SR+N : They're too crazy
They're too zany
They're...
YW+D: ...right here!
YW+D : Oh, what do you do with children like us Warners?
What do you do to get us to obey?
Dot : We're really not so bad
Wakko: If not just lightly mad
Yakko: We can't help it if we like to play!
Yakko, Wakko, Dot : Oh, what do you do with children like us Warners?
Wakko: What do you do with eggs at a buffet?
(Yakko, Dot stare)
Wakko: It rhymed...

Nanny: That bush you went in must have been poison oak.
Dr. Scratchnsniff: Agh! Poison oak?!
Nanny: Oh, do let's sing about it!
Dr. Scratchnsniff: About my poison oak??
Nanny: Yes! Let's!
Dr. Scratchnsniff: (to Yakko, Wakko, Dot) I think she's crazy.
Yakko, Wakko, Dot: Duh!

Yakko: Is there a point to this cartoon?
Dot: I dunno, but we're still getting paid.
Yakko, Wakko, Dot: Ka-ching!
