NASTY DAN


Oh, Nasty Dan was the meanest man I ever knew
He’d stomp and scream and be real mean the whole day through
He’d frown a bunch, he ate nails for lunch, and he never laughed
He’d growl and yell and I do tell, he never took a bath

Nasty Dan, he’s a nasty man
Hard to understand that Nasty Dan

Now Nasty Dan was the meanest man the whole day long
He’d go where he could and he’d try real good to make things go wrong
He’d jump for joy when a little boy would slip and fall
And the only words that he ever said were, “I don’t like you at all!”

Nasty Dan, he’s a nasty man
Hard to understand that Nasty Dan

Nasty Pearl was a nasty girl who met Dan somehow
She said, “You’re like me, rotten as can be. Let’s get married now”
So, they went and they did and had a nasty kid and I must confess
That Dan pretty much leaves everybody alone now, and he doesn’t bother anybody anymore
‘cause he just sits there in his nasty ol’ house with his nasty ol’ wife and his nasty kid
In nasty happiness
Nasty Dan, he’s a happy man
Hard to understand that nasty Dan
