boogity boogity 

An onomatopoetic expression of running or other hurried activity, characteristic of traditional African and African American narration. Occurs in Ralph Waldo Ellison's "Invisible Man;" metrically identical with "imbili imbili," the formula used for the same purposes by African griots -- for example, Fa-Digi Sisoko's Son-Jara. Alternatively, "boogety boogety," "boogedy boogedy."
"So here he comes, runnin down the street boogity boogity till he gets tot he corner."

The sound that strikes fear in the heart of your dad...or is supposed to. Marshie, the hilarious talking marshmallow, is the one behind this spooky surprise noise.
"Boogity boogity! I'll scare your dad! Those little punks next door won't know what hit 'em when you serve up a satchel full of Malloween Fluffy Puffs!"
