GORDON
 Yes is a good word
 No is a bad word
 The preferred word
 In any kind of situation
 Is yes I can
 Oh, yes I'd like to do that
 Yes the world's increasingly absurd
 Yes, yes
 Yes is a good word
 Yes, yes
 Yes is a very special word
 MR. BUNGEE
 Yes I will do that
 Yes I will go there
 Yes I will live a good and a true life
 Yes I'll survive
 Whatever you throw at me
 Yes the world is grand
 When there's a moment
 Grab it and shake it
 Take it in your hand
 Yes I will
 Yes I can
 Yes I might!
 Yes I will put up an honest fight
 OTHERS
 Yes I'll be fearless
 MR. BUNGEE
 Yes I'll be fearless
 OTHERS
 Yes, I'll be honest
 MR. BUNGEE
 Yes, I'll be honest
 OTHERS
 Yes, I will live my life with emotion
 MR. BUNGEE
 Live with emotion
 OTHERS
 Yes, I'll have courage, chance, and devotion
 ALL (Gordon is out of the picture now)
 Yes, I will survive
 MR. BUNGEE
 Yes is the word that opens the door
 To being most alive
 ALL
 Yes!
 MR. BUNGEE
 There's joy
 ALL
 Yes!
 MR. BUNGEE
 There's love
 ALL
 Yes!
 MR. BUNGEE
 Yes, there's zing!
 OTHERS
 Yes...
 MR. BUNGEE
 Yes, I absolutely have to sing
 ALL
 Yes, yes, yes
 MR. BUNGEE
 Is a good word
 OTHERS
 Yes, yes, yes
 ALL
 Yes, yes
 Yes is a very special word
 MR. BUNGEE
 Except when a stranger says,
 "Get into my car."
 Say no
 OTHERS
 No!
 MR. BUNGEE
 Or when someone says,
 "Would you like to lose your virginity?"
 Someone with who you have
 No affinity
 Say no, no
 No, no
 OTHERS
 No, no
 No, no!
 Yes is a good word
 No is a bad word...
 ONE GUY
 The preferred wor...
 MR. BUNGEE (spoken as everyone else is singing)
 No, no.
 No, no, no!
 No, no, no!
 What is this nonsense about virginity?
 It's a goddamn children's show!
 I never know what the hell you're writing about (all else is silent) Schwinn.
 I want a song! A song, yes.
 Yes, I will do my homework. Yes I will work in the garden.
 Yes I will go with my grandparents to Israel.
 Instead I get this nonsense about somebody
 who loses their virginity to those with whom they have no affinity.
 Affinity! It's a goddamn children's show!
 Alright, look. I know you're in the hospital. You've got this brain thing.
 And you know what? I'm gonna get my son to write the song.
 Where's my son?!
 Where's my son?!
 Where's my son?!
