Lyrics[]
Helen: Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Chuck E. and Jasper: Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Helen: You went to school to learn
Things you never, never knew before
Jasper: Like "I before E, except after C"
Helen: And why two plus two makes four
Now, now, now, I'm gonna teach you (Chuck E. and Jasper: Teach you, teach you)
All about love (Chuck E. and Jasper: All about love)
Jasper: Sit yourself down, take a seat
All you gotta do is repeat after me
All: A, B, C
Helen: It's easy as
All: 1, 2, 3
Helen: As simple as
All: Do-re-mi
A, B, C, 1, 2, 3, you and me (Helen: Baby, you and me, now)
All: A, B, C
Helen: It's easy as
All: 1, 2, 3
Helen: As simple as
All: Do-re-mi
A, B, C, 1, 2, 3, you and me (Helen: Baby, you and me, now)
Munch: Come on, let me go just a little bit (Chuck E. and Pasqually: Come, come, little bit)
Helen: Come on, and love me just a little bit (Chuck E. and Pasqually: Come, come, little bit)
Jasper: I'ma gonna teach how to sing it out (Chuck E. and Pasqually: Come, come, little bit)
Helen: Come on, come on, come on
Let me show you what it's all about
Reading, writing, 'rithmetic
Are the branches of the learning tree
Jasper: But listen, without the roots of love every day, girl
Helen: Your education ain't complete
T-t-t-teachers gonna show you (Chuck E. and Jasper: She's gonna show you)
How to get an "A"! (Chuck E. and Jasper: Nyah nyah nyah nyah!)
Jasper: How to spell me and you, add the two
Listen to me, baby, that's all you gotta do
Helen: Oh!
All: A, B, C
Helen: It's easy as
All: 1, 2, 3
Helen: As simple as
All: Do-re-mi

All: A, B, C (Oooooh...)
Helen: It's easy, it's like counting up to three
All: 1, 2, 3
Helen: Sing a simple melody
All: Do-re-mi
A, B, C
That's how easy love can be
That's how easy love can be (Helen: Sing a simple melody)
1, 2, 3, you and me (Helen: Baby, you and me!)
Jasper: Come on, everybody!
Get up and dance!
Show me what you can do!
Yeah!
Helen: Shake it, shake it, baby, come on now (Jasper: Yeah!)
Helen and Chuck E.: Shake it, shake it, baby (Helen: Ooh-ooh!)
