The Lyrics

Doodle-oodle-doot, Inspector Gadget, doodle-oodle-doot, doot doo (doot doo)! Yeah, he was kinda useless, wasn't he?
Hey

Penny, Penny, your uncle owes you
You've saved his life a zillion times, true
I know this has been said lots of times befo-ore
But you're too smart for one who's ten years o-old

Penny, the real day-saver
Should be the hero, ri-i-ight?
Penny, no niece who's greater
Your uncle's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight
Dumb Gadget's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight
Your uncle's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight
Dumb Gadget's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight

Penny, Penny, you're the sidekick, jeez
Oh, I cannot see just how the hell that can be
You've got an awesome laptop, ahead of the curve
Solves all the plot complications, credit you dese-erve

Penny, the real day-saver
Sidekick? That can't be ri-i-ight
Penny, no niece who's greater
Your uncle's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight
Dumb Gadget's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight
Your uncle's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight
Dumb Gadget's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight

You'll solve it (you'll solve it) you'll solve i-it
With some help from your talkin' do-og
You'll solve it (you'll solve it) you'll solve i-it
Twenty minutes, well, give or take, that's a-all

Hey

Penny, the real day-saver
Uncle Gadget's not bri-i-ight
Penny, no niece who's greater
Your uncle's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight
Dumb Gadget's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight
Your uncle's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight
Dumb Gadget's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight

Penny, Penny, I wish i-it was you (your uncle's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight)
Who got all the doodads, you'd put the-em to be-etter u-use (dumb Gadget's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight)
Your uncle's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight
Dumb Gadget's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight
Your uncle's alive cause you're bri-ight
Dumb Gadget's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight (you've saved his hide)
Your uncle's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight (ten thousand ti-i-imes)
Dumb Gadget's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight (I'm sure that's ri-ight)
Your uncle's alive cause you're bri-ee-i-ight

I'd watch the hell out of an Inspector Gadget reboot where Penny gets all the gadgets.

Wowsers! talk about timing! I just recently started watching "Inspector Gadget" again so I know what you mean Gadget IS a bit of a bumbling klutz but don't knock him TOO much! after all his incompetence is where the comedy of the show comes from plus he had the awesome voice of Don Adams! 5's
