"Lucky Enough To Be A Ghost"

If you've seen the DVD you know about Deleted Scene #91: "Lucky Enough To Be A Ghost." If not, I'll explain. :^)

Originally there was supposed to be a full-blown song-and-dance routine featuring Dr. Harvey and the Trio, during their first psychology session. Unfortunately the scene was too expensive to animate and had to be axed. Remember when Kat told Vic that her dad "kinda hit the ceiling" when she asked him if she could have a party? That's referring to the end of the deleted scene, where the Trio float Dr. Harvey on his couch up to the ceiling - and then let him drop when Kat bursts in wanting to know if she can have a party.

I've transcribed the lyrics to the song as best I could (a few words were difficult to understand and there was no caption option).

"Lucky Enough To Be A Ghost"

ALL
Too bad about your wife!

FATSO
Doc, I'm in crisis - I'm anxious, repressed.
I'm so sick I flunked my Rorschach test!

STRETCH
I'm off my rocker, but Doc, don't you see?

STINKIE
It's not a bad thing - it's what makes me me!

FATSO
I'm manic depressive, I overeat

STINKIE
I'm passive-aggressive, fixated on feet

STRETCH
I'm schizoid paranoid, I come on strong - my split
personalities don't get along!

ALL
I'm uncurably, uninterrably, out of my head I've been
diagnosed. But it don't matter if you're mad as a hatter
when you're lucky enough to be a ghost!

FATSO
I binge and I purge, I'm always obsessing;
I'm an alcoholic shopaholic inter-cross-dresser

STINKIE
I've got a bad body image, a twitch and a tic

STRETCH
It's hopeless, Doc: I'm sicker than sick!

ALL
I'm uncurably, uninterrably, out of my head I've been
diagnosed. But it don't matter if you're mad as a hatter
when you're lucky enough to be a ghost!

FATSO
When you got no bones and you got no skin, you don't care
what shape your mind is in

STINKIE
When you got no pulse, you're not in the pink

ALL
You need an exorcist, not a stupid shrink!

ALL
I'm uncurably, uninterrably, out of my head I've been
diagnosed. But it don't matter if you're mad as a hatter -

STINKIE
If you're dippy

STRETCH
If you're flaky

FATSO
If you're flippy

STRETCH
Fruitcakey!

STINKIE
If you're wiggy

FATSO
It's no biggie

ALL
If you're lucky enough to be a ghost!
