[00:01.704] SCUTTLE(spoken): Wow - this is special...this very very unusual.
[00:05.066]
[00:05.582] ARIEL(spoken): What? What is it?
[00:06.350]
[00:07.125] SCUTTLE(spoken): It's a dinglehopper!
[00:08.136]
[00:08.658] ARIEL: A dinglehopper?
[00:09.704]
[00:09.959] SCUTTLE: Oh these babies are fantabulous. Absolutely indispensary. When it comes to dingle hoppers I'm a regular
[00:13.798] encyclopoodia!
[00:17.926]
[00:18.714] Say thatcha wanna have a hairdo
[00:20.756] Like the folds who live up there do
[00:22.553] That'll flap their wigs!

[00:35.351]
[00:35.607] SCUTTLE: Pick up the dinglehopper, just like so
[00:37.660] Twirl it the way I'm twirling now!
[00:39.194] Give it a little yank, and there ya go!
[00:44.603] You're what the call "the dog's meow"!
[00:50.288]
[00:50.533] GULLS: Wonderful stuff!
[00:51.557]
[00:51.816] GULL 3: Awwwk!
[00:52.319]
[00:52.836] GULLS: That human stuff!
[00:53.613] Can't get enough -
[00:54.117]
[00:55.146] GULL 3: Awwwk!
[00:55.411]
[00:55.655] GULLS: Of human stuff!
[00:57.735] And we are the authority -
[00:59.276] No need for us to bluff!
[01:00.810] Because we're great and explanatin'
[01:03.634] Human stuff!
[01:04.156]
[01:04.665] ARIEL(spoken): (holds pipe) Whats that?
[01:05.675]
[01:06.198] SCUTTLE(spoken): A snarfblatt!
[01:06.710]
[01:07.225] ARIEL(spoken): Wow!
[01:07.733]
[01:08.240] SCUTTLE: Back when the world was prehistorial
[01:10.286] People sat as still as coral
[01:12.352] Flat upon their bumps
[01:12.594]
[01:13.106] GULL 1: On their runts!
[01:14.637]
[01:15.150] GULL 2: Bunks!
[01:15.398]
[01:15.659] GULL 3: Awwwk!
[01:15.906]
[01:16.426] SCUTTLE: There they would be, not even thinkin'
[01:18.725] Bored to death and barely blinkin'
[01:19.492] Way down at the dumps
[01:20.793]
[01:21.315] GULL 1: On the dumps!
[01:21.824]
[01:22.335] GULL 2: At!
[01:22.593]
[01:22.848] GULL 1: On!
[01:23.115]
[01:23.370] GULL 3: Awwwk!
[01:23.624]
[01:24.126] SCUTTLE: Then they invented snarfblatts, just by chance
[01:25.157] Suddenly life was la-di-da!
[01:30.822] Snarfblatts're what you use to make folks dance
[01:33.121] Give it a blow, and then - voila!
[01:35.711]
[01:36.234] GULLS: Wonderful stuff!
[01:36.745]
[01:37.005] GULL 3: Awwwk!
[01:38.020]
[01:38.276] GULLS: That human stuff!
[01:44.431] If you're a buff -
[01:44.952]
[01:45.208] GULL 3: Awwwk!
[01:45.476]
[01:45.476] GULLS: Of human stuff!
[01:45.719]
[01:47.510] GULL 1: It's marvable!
[01:48.517]
[01:48.517] GULL 2: Stupendible!
[01:48.792]
[01:49.551] SCUTTLE: Completely A-OJ!
[01:51.349] Which sounds absurd, but take my word -
[01:52.627]
[01:53.136] GULLS: That's what the humans say!
[01:53.649]
[01:54.694] SCUTTLE&GULLS: Sensible stuff
[01:55.459] That human stuff!
[01:58.303] None of it fluff -
[02:00.358] Not human stuff!
[02:01.915] And heaven knows
[02:03.193] Since we're the pros
[02:03.970] From us, you'll get no guff
[02:04.992]
[02:06.005] SCUTTLE: And once you've got a who's-ma-gig -
[02:07.800]
[02:08.062] GULL 1: A thing-ma-what -
[02:09.090]
[02:09.340] GULL 2: A watch-ma-gig -
[02:09.604]
[02:10.634] SCUTTLE: That's all you need to bring you up to snuff!
[02:11.655]
[02:12.434] GULLS: Right up to snuff!
[02:13.198] With proper dinglehopper groomin'
[02:14.998] Rest assured...you'll look real human!
[02:16.275]
[02:17.041] SCUTTLE: We know, 'cause we know
[02:19.365] Human stuff!
