Scooby-Dooby-Doo, where are you?
Where is my trusted companion, Scooby, when I need him?
We've got some work to do now
We have a task to accomplish that requires our joint effort
We need some help from you now
We need Scooby's assistance immediately
Once again, I'm 'onna fall
Once again, I find myself in a precarious situation
Once again, I find my back is up against the wall
Once again, I feel trapped with nowhere to turn for help
Will somebody help me? Please hear my call
Can anyone offer me assistance? I'm calling out for help
Or get a message to my dog and we'll be on the ball
If someone can relay a message to my trusted companion, Scooby, we can tackle this problem together
'Cause everybody need a friend that they can depend on
Everyone requires a reliable friend to count on
Someone who could help them out of a situation
Someone who can aid them in resolving their predicament
Only a friend alone can understand my pain
Only a true friend can empathize with my troubles
If only I could get some message to my Great Dane, Scooby
If only I could contact my loyal companion, the Great Dane, Scooby
Tell me, where are you
Please inform me of your location, Scooby

Repeat of the previous line
Once again I'm in a jam
Once again, I find myself in trouble
Once again I never seem to ever have a plan
Once again, it appears I lack a sound strategy
You know me I'm in trouble man, can you lend a hand
You know I'm in distress, my friend, can you offer your assistance?
Right now, I am reachin' out to Scooby and the gang
Currently, I am calling for aid from Scooby and our group of friends
Sure feels good to find a friend that you can lean on
It's reassuring to have a reliable friend you can depend on
And they wouldn't leave you if you say you saw a demon
They would not abandon you even if you claim to have encountered a terrifying creature
And even though sometimes I am a little, little outta luck
Although sometimes I may not be fortunate
And if I worry much I know my dog has got my back
If I become anxious, I'm aware that my dog, Scooby, has my support
Come on, Scooby-Doo
Encouraging Scooby to act
I see you, pretending down to shivers
I'm aware you're pretending to be fearful, shaking and shivering
You're not fooling me 'cause I can see
I'm not deceived by your act because I see through it
The way you shake and shiver
I observe how you tremble
That's right, say, what?
