Brand New Rules is the song heard in The Hopping Hen.

Lyrics

Monkeys on the railings
Hopping hen here
I've never felt so free before
Can't you read the signs 
Yeah, anything goes
So make a mess
And slam the door
Yeah, if you feel like yellin'
Go right ahead
And please swing on the chandelier
Pelicans are welcome to jump on the bed
You're really gonna like it here

Brand new rules!
Anything's fine
The party is proceedin'
'Cause we're readin' the signs
And nothin' is forbidden
Yeah, everything's cool
No, we're not kiddin'
Got some brand new rules!


Bye-bye to peace and quiet
Old laws and regulations
I wonder just how far it's gonna go
Bye-bye to gravity
Bye-bye, civilization
Bye-bye to being nice and goin' slow

Yo! Brand New Rules!
Anything's fine
The party is proceedin'
'Cause we're readin' the signs
And nothin' is forbidden
Yeah, everything's cool
No, we're not kiddin'
Got some brand new rules!
