Just Say Narf! is a song sung by Pinky and an off-screen chorus in the Pinky and the Brain episode of the same name. It is a parody of the song "Make 'Em Laugh" from Singin’ In The Rain. Pinky sings it while trying to cheer Brain up. A shorter version of this song previously appeared in "This Old Mouse." Bill Canterbury wrote both versions of the song, with Gordon Bressack co-writing this longer version.

Lyrics[]

Pinky:
Just say narf, just say narf,
When you aim to exclaim, just say narf!
The Brain:
Yes, always!
Pinky:
It doesn't make a difference if you shout or sing
It doesn't mean anything
Just say zort, just say poit,
Wear a hat, kiss a fish, call Detroit
Detroit:
Hello?
Pinky:
Now you may be a mouse who thinks that life isn't fair
You get up in the wheel, but you don't go anywhere
At least you didn't end up being married to Cher!
Just say narf, just say narf, just say narf!
The Brain:
Oh, yes, it's obviously been some delusion
caused by iron deficiency and a subconscious fear of nincompoops.
Pinky
[laughs]
The Brain:
Aah!
Pinky:
Just say narf, just say narf!
The Brain:
It isn't even a word. Ow!
Pinky:
It's right here in Roget's, just say narf!
So what if the numbers don't make sense on a chart?
Who said you've got to be smart?
Paint your nose, chill some flan
And remember to pre-grease the pan
A narf cannot explain old Newton's gravity laws
It's absolutely useless on linoleum floors
It isn't a solution, but it's sure not the cause
Just say narf, just say narf, just say narf!
Chorus:
Just say narf, just say narf, just say narf!
The Brain:
Get down from there Pinky!
Pinky:
Only if you say Narf" Brain!
The Brain
I am not going to utter that nonsensical syllable Pinky
(Pinky and Brain’s places are then swapped,
Brain falls down from the ceiling of the cage)
Chorus:
Just say narf, just say narf, just say narf!
