Bed grief wet pills?
Bed grief, bed wet
Bed wet...pills
Bad luck

Bed wet good grief
Good grief bed wet
Zip up

MES: What'd I say to you? For a change, we're put in a good position here. Because... it's actually something good we could work with... ya know, it doesn't mean... ya know...
Other: You're a major player here, Mark. You could change the entire direction in one move. And I think it's not often that we're at this point this early in the procedure....
MES: What about the corporation?
O: Con...Connie and Cookie?...Erm, they subscribed.
MES: Say - we've got to thank them for their full....
O: (laughing) Their full cooperation...
O (with MES dictating in the background): ...with the fall and their associates.
MES: I would say the anti-Fall-ization. I would say the anti-Fall.
O:Anti-Fall? Anti-Fall association. Their full cooperation with the anti-Fall association.
MES (singing): Curly wurly how could you prescribe
Bad grief and bed wet
Connie Cookie how could you subscribe
Bad grief, bad pills
Bad grief
Bed wet... Pills!
Wurly wurly how dare you prescribe
Bed wet, good grief
Good grief, bed wet
Zip up! Zip up!
