Verse 1 — Carla Carla Pop Cherry came struttin’ down the street, With a hat full of cherries and two left feet. She twirled, she whirled, she slipped on a peel, Declared, “Grace is a myth — but chaos is real!” Verse 2 — Ned Ned Cracked Nuts was a nutty little gent, With pockets full of gadgets that were slightly bent. He’d wind one up, it’d sputter and spark, Then chase him down the alley like a metal-clad shark. Chorus — Duet / Barbershop Ohhh, Pop! Crack! Kaboom! There’s trouble in the room. When Carla Pop Cherry meets Ned Cracked Nuts, Something’s bound to go boom! They tumble and they fumble In a slapstick tune — It’s the Pop, the Crack, and the Kabooooom! Verse 3 — Carla & Ned Carla Pop Cherry tossed a cherry, Ned Cracked Nuts ducked low, It bounced off a lamppost with a vaudeville glow. Ned’s gizmo whirred, then took to the air, Carla shouted, “Incoming!” and dove off a chair. Bridge — Harmony Carla: “Why does everything explode around you?” Ned: “It’s not my fault — mostly — well… maybe a few.” Both: “But when we team up, the crowd starts to roar, So let’s give ’em chaos — and then some more!” Final Chorus — Full Harmony Pop! Crack! Kaboom! Clear a little room. The cherries are flyin’, The gadgets go boom! They slip and they trip In a ragtime swoon — It’s the Pop, the Crack, and the vaudeville KABOOOOOM!
