"Eep Opp Ork Ah Ah!"
- Silly sounding rock and roll song performed on episode
"A Date With Jet Screamer" of the cartoon series THE JETSONS/ABC/1962-64.
On this particular tale, pop star "Jet Screamer" holds a
contest
and offers himself as first prize. Judy Jetson wants
desperately to meet him and so she a writes a song
for the contest. But her father George hates Jet Screamer and
tampers with her song lyrics by using a funny sounding phrase
"Eep Opp Ork" that his son Elroy uses to communicate in code
with his friends. Luckily, Judy's song wins and Jet Screamer performs
his new song "Eep
Opp Ork Ah-Ah!" to rave reviews at the Swivel Lounge where his
TV show is taped. Actually, the phrase "Eep Opp Ork" (per
Elroy) really means "Meet Me
Tonight." The song "Eep Op Ork Ah-Ah" (by the Violent Femmes)
is available on the CD "Saturday Morning: Cartoons
Greatest Hits" (MCA Records - MCAD 11348). To listen to a
rendition of the "Eep Opp Ork Ah Ah" song, check out
