Hairspray - Cooties Lyrics

Tracy Turnblad, this is for you

They came from way far out, outer space
And with her help they may destroy the human race

She's got cooties, cooties
They've found a place to nest
She's got cooties, cooties
If I were her I'd be depressed
Long tailed, sharp nailed, fuzzy legs, laying eggs
Eww, get 'em away from me
Get 'em away from me ewww

In science class she's like a walking show-and-tell
Her pet skunk ran away 'cause it couldn't take the smell

She's got cooties, cooties
Nobody want to sit by her
She's got cooties, cooties
She don't need a coat 'cause she's got fur
Circle, circle, dot, dot, dot
Hurry, get your cootie shot
Come on everybody, let's stamp 'em out

She's got cooties, cooties
She's just as friendly as can be
She's got cooties, cooties
She'll shows them cootie hospitality
She's got cooties, cooties
She's like a living twilight zone
She's got cooties, cooties
Quick, get Rod Sterling on the phone

Black, white, red, green every color in between
Dresses like a circus clown somebody oughta hose her down
Grew up in a cootie zoo I bet her two-ton mama's got 'em too
And that's for you
