lyr req: Camp song/pantomime/skit

Line Skit

does anyone know of and/or know the rest of these lyrics? i don't think it's really a song, but i think it'd go in gross-out songs, parody songs, and silly songs.

it was on stage at camp when i was about 10, years ago. i don't think it was a song, tho.
a long line facing the audience, of camp adults, dressed in different costume appropriate for the lines each had.
each also did pantomime of their roles.
each person said their lines and did their pantomime possibly two or three times, then kept on going as the next person started theirs, and so on, till the end of the long line, when all were saying their lines and doing their pantomime.

the only lines i remember are these:
the first person i the line, dressed as a garbageman- "Pick it up, throw it in, eat it all up."
the second person dressed as a bird watcher- "Tweat, tweat, tweat-tweat, splat! (splat is the bird dropping it's do on her head).
a number down the row, but not remember which number, dressed as a fast food employee- "...milkshake, quarter-pounder, fries" (at quarter-pounder, he squashed it under his arm).
another down the line, dressed as, i think, an icecream maker- "goosheeshgu, gooshsheeshgu, good icecream" (right after saying "good icecream" he gives his running nose a good swipe with his arm and hand).

there were many more, but i just don't remember them. it seemed like there were at least 12 or more people in the line.

thanks

sounds very much like one of the improvisational acting excercises we do.
