Is there an "add instead" in Javascript?

Hello, say I have a webpage with a few instances of the text "Yabadabadoo".

Is there a way to tell Javascript to do this pseudo code:

WHEREVER there is "Yabadabadoo" CHANGE to "Skoobidoo".

Hi Ben!

Have you tried this? 

document.body.innerHTML = document.body.innerHTML.replace('Yabadabadoo', 'Skoobidoo');

I hope that helps you
