Trivia[]
- Based on the voices scatting the theme, it sounds like the singers are characters such as Cuddles (Kenn Navarro), Giggles (Dana Belben), and Toothy (Warren Graff).
- The theme song has been used since Spin Fun Knowin' Ya, the first episode.
- The theme song itself was composed by RJ Eleven, sometime in 1999.
- Every time the theme song ends, characters can be heard cheering shortly before the episode starts.
- The tone of the theme song sounds different on most of the "Classics Remastered" episodes. This is because most of the "Classics Remastered" episodes have different sound channels and lowed treble for an unknown reason.
- The only non-Halloween webisode for which the theme doesn't play both at the beginning and at the end is in Pet Peeve, whose credits played with Lumpy screaming.
- At the end of the episode Royal Flush, Lammy's "baa" noises are added, somewhat out of sync. This version is also heard on the Mondo website version of A Bit of a Pickle.
- The two characters who die in the video are the same characters who star in and die in the episode Sweet Ride. They are also the two characters who, in the episode In a Jam, sell blood at a bloodmobile whose worker is The Mole, who by chance is the character who kills Nutty and Cuddles in the theme song video.
- The key of the song is A major/E mixolydian.
- The tempo of the song is approximately 170 bpm.
- On Halloween episodes, the tempo is slowed down to about 150 bpm, and an organ is heard in the background to make it sound spookier. Also, instead of characters cheering when the song ends, a scream by Lumpy can be heard (Note: On the early episodes, such as Out of Sight, Out of Mime, a normal cheering by the can be heard).
- In YouTube Copyright School, the theme song is performed by Lumpy, Giggles, and Petunia in their music group titled Lumpy and the Lumpettes.
