DENNIS THE MENACE

Rosemary Clooney/Jimmy Boyd



Dennis, the menace, he's a bundle of dynamite

Oh, the things he says and the things he does

Will make you shake with fright

(Beware of) Dennis the menace

Oh, you'd better be on your toes

There is bound to be a calamity no matter where he goes

His mom and dad get nervous

Whenever he's too quiet

They never know what will happen next

A cyclone, flood or rot

Dennis the menace, though he makes your hair turn gray

When he looks at you with those eyes of blue

He'll steal your hear away



Last night I got a spanking

I don't know what to think

'Cause all I did was fill my water pistol full of ink

Now I ask you did mommy have to yell at me like that

Just because I watered all those flowers on her hat

My daddy love to ride in planes

'Way high up in the sky

He didn't see my roller skates

And oh boy, did he fly

We were playing train with daddy's chair

Me and another kid

My daddy said, "now, break it up"

So that's just what we did
