==Lyrics==
Jennifer:
They call him Merlin Jones the Scrambled Egghead
Merlin Jones the Campus Kook
My heart's whirlin' I'm the girl in love with Merlin Jones
I heard weird noises late one night as I passed the science wing
I looked inside and there he was working on the darnedest thing
The thing got up and buzzed and beeped and walked right out the door and Merlin said, 
Merlin Jones (spoken):
At last it works! I wonder what it's for?
Chorus:
We call him Merlin Jones the Scrambled Egghead Merlin Jones the Campus Kook but her heart's whirlin' she's the girl in love with Merlin Jones
Jennifer:
Although I know his way-out brain is on cloud nine, his kisses makes me wanna be his Mrs. Frankenstein
Call him crazy call him mad with oddball overtones all I know is I got it bad for Mr. Merlin Jones
Chorus:
Lots of fellas in the school have asked her out on dates, but this brainy, way-out wit is the only one that rates
Jennifer:
I can't help being proud of him when he puts his brain in gear, although a voice inside me cries, "Get me out of here!"
Chorus:
We call him Merlin Jones the Scrambled Egghead Merlin Jones the Campus Kook but her heart's whirlin' she's the girl in love with Merlin Jones
Jennifer:
Although I know his way-out brain is on cloud nine, his kisses make me wanna be his Mrs. Frankenstein
Call him crazy call him mad with oddball overtones all I know is I got it bad for Mr. Merlin Jones
All:
Mr. Merlin Jones
Jennifer:
Love my Merlin Jones
