Mid-Episode Song: "Fly Down to Flicker Town"
    Paint your wings
    Fly out there and knock them dead
    You heard what we said
    You'll steal the show
    When you fly down, to Flicker Town

    Golden Girl
    The cameras are lined up now
    Brush up on your bow
    Those horns will blow
    When you fly down, to Flicker Town

    You'll get a chance
    To dance on a mountain
    Someday you'll go and throw
    Three coins in a fountain

    Oh!

    Pack your bags
    'Cause Oscar has eyes for you
    They're playing your cue
    The world will know
    When you fly down, to Flicker Town

    When you fly down, to Flicker Town

    Oh yeah!
