Due to the simple repetitive nature of the song there is no official or standard set of lyrics, with each performer adding and modifying verses as desired.
It was performed by Hal Linden and the Electric Mayhem on episode 517 of The Muppet Show. Unfortunately, Beauregard chooses that time to test the onstage trap-door releases, causing Hal and the other performers to keep falling through the stage floor.
