It recaps the events from that said episode.
Lyrics
Other Three: Hey Zidgel, where did you get that calliope, huh?
Zidgel: I got it from a cat named Uncle Blobb
Other Three: How did you figure out how to play that thing?
Zidgel: You just twist a few knobs and swing
Well, you climb on into that circus tent
Other Three: Before you know it you are a seed of discontent
Zidgel: Can you tell me what went wrong?
Move your feet and swing along
You are griping and whining about everything
Other Three: Man complaining hips are hard to swing
Zidgel: You get to jump, jive and run
You should be having fun
All: Don’t be a seed!
If a seed is what you are
You have got to be a bright and shining star!
Hey!
(Midgel scatting)
You can’t always get what you want.
No, no!
You can’t always get what you want.
Ungh, ungh!
But if you gripe sometimes
you just might find
you turn into seed!
Zidgel: When you stop griping and whining about everything
Midgel, Fidgel and Kevin: Your legs get loose and you start to swing!
Zidgel: You jump, jive and run!
Man now you are having fun!
Can you tell me where that sad face went?
Midgel, Fidgel, and Kevin: Cracked a smile, changed your style, now you are content
Zidgel: You are singing a new song!
Move your feet and swing along!
All: Don’t be a seed!
If a seed is what you are,
you have got to be a bright
and shining star! Hey!
Zidgel: When they see you swing and smile a lot
Midgel, Fidgel, and Kevin: They want a little bit of what you got.
Zidgel: Now look at who you are!
A bright and shining star!
All: Much happier by far!
A bright and shining...
Zidgel: No griping, no whining!
All: A bright and shining star!
