Nasty Dan (Sesame Street Version)
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
