> Another classic that is mostly unspoken is Chuck Jones’s masterpiece “Feed the Kitty,” in which bulldog Marc Anthony becomes the doting adoptor of a stray kitten (later called Pussyfoot). The look on Marc’s face when he thinks Pussyfoot’s been made into cookies is priceless.

You bet it is, OxyMoron. I always break down when I see that. ☹

Since you guys are so good at the lyrics thing. What are the words to the, well, Looney Toon song? Here is all I remember:  
I’m just a looney tooney touched in the head.  
Pass me the ketchup, I think I’ll go to bed.

Here comes the choo-choo, whoo hoo!

I vaguely remember a very strange looking Daffy singing this to a very tall Elmer.

Ella Fitzgerald did it better:

The five o’clock whistle’s on the blink,  
The whistle won’t blow and whadd’ya think?  
My pop is still in the factory 'cause he don’t know  
What time it happens to be.

The five o’clock whistle didn’t blow  
The whistle is broke and whadda’ya know?  
If somebody don’t find out what’s wrong  
Oh, my pop’ll be workin’ all night long,

Oh! Who’s gonna fix the whistle?  
Won’t somebody fix the whistle?  
Oh! Who’s gonna fix the whistle?  
So my poor old pop will know  
It’s time for him to stop

Ya ought to hear what my mommy said,  
When papa came home and sneaked into bed  
And told her he worked till half past two  
'Cause the five o’clock whistle never blew.
