"What Do It Do?" is a song by the new wave band Zanzibar. The song, which centers around reverse engineering, was released in 1982, at the height of the genre's popularity.
It was played during the episode of the same name while Phineas and Ferb attempt to identify the function of Doofenshmirtz's machine that had crash-landed into their front yard that morning.
Lyrics[]
What you gonna does when you don't know what it do?
Do, do, do, do, do, do!
It's way too big to be a buckle, and too bland to be a belly dancer!
Or when it tries to guess your height, it's never right unless you're three-foot-two
When you come or go, you can't tell if it waves goodbye or waves hello!
And in the library it's useless 'cause it don't care when the books are due!
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
It doesn't seem to understand the game is not rock-paper-scissors-spaniel!
Instead of picking up the trash it started picking Lady Liberty's nose!
It makes a lousy baseball umpire or brow-wiper for bongo players!
And when it walks a dog it never really pays attention where it goes!
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do
Do, do, do, do, do, what do it do?
