Lyrics[]
Well, Zardo Zap was flying around
She landed her saucer here on the ground
Zardo Zap hadn't been here long
When she started singing this song
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
When everybody saw her on the ground
People started gathering around
Very soon her song caught on
Everyone sang along
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
She thought that Earth was really hip
She was tired and hungry after making the trip
Thirty zillion clicks is a long way to come
To get some Pappadums
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo
