quote help

hey. could someone help me with something homer sings? in 5F19 "When you dish upon a star" with kim basinger and alec baldwin, right in the beginning when the kids wake up marge & homer asking to go to the lake (after homer's dream ala yogi bear) homer falls back asleep and starts singing:

gorilla, gorilla, gorilla for sale, hey, ___________ something something my banana mr. peeble ahhh, ahhhh

anyone know all the lyrics? and where is that song from?

thanks in advance for a world-class answer, you're an inspiration to our entire organization.

That's the theme from the old Hanna-Barbara cartoon "Magilla Gorilla." I believe it was part of the "Wally Gator Show."

yeah, i finally found it wading through the capsule on snpp.com, but the words still don't make sense to me. not that they're supposed to - it's the theme song to a cartoon.

They always made sense to me. This is how I remembered the song:

"We've got a gorilla for sale. Magilla Gorilla for sale. Won't you buy him, Take him home and try him? Gorilla for sale.

Look in the window, Magilla Gorilla Full of charm and appeal. Handsome, elegant, intelligent, sweet He's really ideal.

So if you want a little gorilla You can call your own. A gorilla who'll be with you When you're all alone.

Take our advice, at any price, A gorilla like Magilla is mighty nice.

[little girl] How much is that gorilla in the window?]

Magilla Gorilla for sale!

Which episode was it where Bart say's "Shine your boots, Governor"?

Thanks

Pope John Paul II actually has white keds with gold laces.
