The Lyrics

Musical number with Peter Venkman, Dana Barrett, Ray Stantz, Egon Spengler and Winston Zeddmore
(Peter):
Got myself a job and baby it's the most
Driving round New York and busting ghosts
and I'm having a ball, who ya gonna call?
we're the real thing

(Dana):
Things in my refrigerator look quite odd
Bad leftovers and a pagan god
so I'm calling today, come and take away
this evil thing

(Peter):
People say that I
capture things that don't exist
won't you back off man,
I'm a scientist!
Been slimed with green slobber, uh huh
And we always remember, uh huh

(Ray and Egon):
Never cross the streams
leave them were they are
mixing energies
would be very wrong
when we're fighting things
from the underworld
we keep away from each other, uh huh
no we never touch each other, uh huh

(Peter):
Looks like all mankind faces an evil fate
Perfect time to ask you on a date!
Even when we're apart
still you set my heart beating faster

(Dana):
YOU PATHETIC, SIMPLE HUMAN FOOL
NONE CAN STAND BEFORE THE MIGHT OF ZUUL!
WE'LL BE RULING YOUR KIND
ONCE YOU HELP ME FIND THE KEYMASTER

(Peter):
Aw, c'mon guys
So my girlfriend was a dog
Working as a team, let's fry this god
We can do this together, uh huh
move away from each other, uh huh

(Egon):
We should cross the streams
aim them right at her
it's the only thing
that can beat Gozer
then we're blasting this big marshmallow man
We can rely on each other, uh huh
Can you give me some cover, uh huh

(Peter, Ray, Egon and Winston):
We should cross the streams
aim them right at her
it's the only thing
that can beat Gozer
then we're blasting this big marshmallow man
We can rely on each other, uh huh
We can same Venkman's lover, uh huh
