Pretty Polly Possum what's wrong with you?
Your body's kind a weak and you think there's nothing we can do
Good Golly Polly shame on you
'Cause Molly made a stew that'll make a newer girl out of you
So follow me, it's good for you
That good old fashioned medicated goo
Ooh, ain't it good for you?
My own homegrown recipe'll see you through
Freaky Freddy Frolic had some I know
He was last seen picking green flowers in a field of snow
Get ready Freddy, they're sure to grow
Mother nature just blew it and there's nothing really to it I know
So follow me, it's good for you
That good old fashioned medicated goo
Ooh, ain't it good for you?
My own homegrown recipe'll see you through
Aunty Franny Prickett and uncle Lou they made some goo
Now they really sock it to their friends
Frantic friends and neighbors charge the door
They caught a little whiff now they're digging it and seeking more
So follow me, it's good for you
That good old fashioned medicated goo
Ooh, ain't it good for you?
My own homegrown recipe'll see you through
So follow me, it's good for you
That good old fashioned medicated goo
Ooh, ain't it good for you?
My own homegrown recipe'll see you through
Your body's kind a weak and you think there's nothing we can do
Good Golly Polly shame on you
'Cause Molly made a stew that'll make a newer girl out of you
So follow me, it's good for you
That good old fashioned medicated goo
Ooh, ain't it good for you?
My own homegrown recipe'll see you through
