"Hey Ferb" is a song performed by Phineas during the introduction of "Rollercoaster: The Musical!".
Lyrics[]
Phineas: I know what we're gonna do today,
Though it might sound just a bit cliché.
We can build a rollercoaster, but this time with songs and dancing!
'Cause when we're back in school, come next September,
And they ask us, we can both remember
Every cool and clever thing we did all summer long, and glancing
Back we're gonna be so glad that we
Didn't sit all day and watch TV,
I don't think anyone can disagree
The world is possibilities
And that's what makes me say-y-y:
Phineas and Chorus: Hey Ferb!
Phineas: Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today
Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today
Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today-y-y!...
Phineas and Chorus: Hey Ferb!
Phineas: Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today
Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today
Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today-y-y!...
Phineas and Chorus: Hey Ferb!
Background singers: Boredom is something up with which I will not put
Phineas: Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today
Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today
Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today-y-y!...
Phineas and Chorus: Hey Ferb!
Background singers: Boredom is something up with which I will not put
Phineas: Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today
Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today
Hey Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today!
Hey Ferb!

Background Information[]
- Throughout the accompanying video, Phineas and Ferb parody several well-known musicals. This encompasses Cats, The Phantom of the Opera, Oklahoma!, Singin' in the Rain, Fiddler on the Roof, West Side Story, The Music Man, Les Misérables, The King and I, Chicago and finally, Cabaret.
- During the final part of the song, the background chorus repeats the phrase "Boredom is something up with which I will not put." Besides being a direct quote from "Rollercoaster," this line plays on a famous quip attributed (possibly apocryphally) to Winston Churchill: "Ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will not put." In the Spanish version, that sentence is heard loud and the chorus just repit hey, Ferb.
- This is the first Broadway-style song to not be sung by Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz.
- This song has background vocals by Laura Dickinson (http://ringostrack.com/en/artist/laura-dickinson/15684).
- The song was first acknowledged by Dan Povenmire at the Phineas and Ferb Comic Con Panel (July 2010).
