Alternate Lyrics For MGM 'Our Gang' Theme (Written By MGM Staff): (Although Still To The Tune Of London Bridge Is Falling Down & Farmer In The Dell)
The comedy's going down the drain Down the drain Down the drain
Because it's all about good morals And cit-i-zen-ship
So go serve Uncle Sam So go serve Uncle Sam Hip Hip Hooray, three cheers So go serve Uncle Sam

Alternate Lyrics For Hal Roach 'Our Gang' "Good Old Days" Theme (Hatley/Shield):
As you know the good old days Was really just a yarn. At the Culver City Roach Lot Nobody gives a darn!
Whether it's funny or not Isn't a hard fast rule. So go sit down and eat your mush And get ready for School!

Billy "Froggy" Laughlin: You know what? I refuse to talk in a ridiculous sounding Popeye like voice! What's more, I'd much rather quote Freud than that silly Shakespeare fellow!
Mickey Gubitosi: I refuse to cry in these shorts! In my Long-johns, maybe?
Janet Burston: I refuse to act like a ham! I just want to be my own natural self in these shorts.
Billie "Buckwheat" Thomas: I refuse to continue doing these shorts until I'm made the leader of our gang, because I've earned that right! I'm Buckwheat, dammit!

Spanky: Look, Alfalfa, somebody left some firecrackers on the school playground!
Alfalfa: Oooooh, those are dangerous. Better not touch them.
Spanky: But we shouldn't leave them here. Somebody could be hurt.
Alfalfa: Then we should tell someone responsible.
Spanky: Yeah. Who's the most responsible people we know?
Alfalfa: That's easy. Buckwheat and Porky.
Spanky: Of course. I don't know what I was thinking.
Alfalfa shouts to Buckwheat and Porky across the schoolyard to take custody of the firecrackers.

Spanky: "But why's Dad shipping clerks? He should be shipping characters on TV shows, like all the other fanboys!"

In the MGM era, circa 1941: Spanky - OK Gang, I know that Mickey's in the Hospital, but I say it's his own darn fault for being stupid enough to chase that fly ball into traffic! Therefore, I hereby propose that we do nothing! OK, let's eat some cake! I guess this short will have to be re-titled 1-2-3 NO! CHEERS!

Alternative lines for "Tired Business Men."
Scooter: "Hey, what you got there?"
Jackie: "A new electric hootenanny."
Harry: "Something we can use to initiate new members?"
Farina: "Ooh, ooh, initiate me again!"
Jay: "No way! You've already been initiated three times. You get too much attention. It's my turn, I've only been initiated once!"
Bonedust: "No, it's my turn! Nothing goofy has happened to me in almost an hour!"
Jean: "Why do you boys have to have all the fun?"
Mango: "I want more lines!"
Jackie: "Actually, I've been thinking all this initiating thing is ridiculous. We can hook this hootenanny up to be a doorbell."
Harry: "I guess you're right. We've always respected your opinion and you make a great leader."
Scooter: "Hey, a cat just came in. I bet that's his owner coming now."
Jackie: "Yeah, why don't we invite him to join the Manhattan Club and all he has to do is let us play with his cat. And he looks pretty heavy, so be sure not to say anything about his weight."

From 'Waldo's Last Stand...' "I know why nobody else came to our show! Because it sucked on toast!" And trying to attract a crowd in an isolated fenced in area wasn't too bright, either!

MGM Executive:
OK, we do love doing Public Service shorts and injecting moral lessons in our stories, but let's keep the 'Our Gang' series just as it was at Roach. We could use a little improvisation around here, after all! Furthermore, let's hire away Roach's casting director! He really knows what he's doing! For this, we'll even let Hal get the full rights to the 'Our Gang' name back later, even if he does another kiddie series!

Alfalfa: Why am I constantly being called upon to sing? Doesn't the producer realize by now that I'm tone deaf?
