Nasty Dan [Sesame Street Version] lyrics

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'd never laugh

He'd growl and yell, and I heard tell

He never took a bath

Nasty Dan was a nasty man

Hard to understand, that Nasty Dan

Now, Nasty Dan was a nasty 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 trip and fall

And the only words that he ever said

Were "I don't like you at all"

Nasty Dan was a nasty man

Hard to understand, that Nasty Dan

Now here's the best part

It's about a girl named Nasty Pearl

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 lives 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
