Lyrics:
The Dipsy Doodle is the thing to beware
The Dipsy Doodle will get in your hair
If it gets you it couldn't be worse
The things you say will come out in reverse
"You love I, oh, me love you"
That's the way the Dipsy Doodle works

Oh, the Dipsy Doodle is easy to find
You know it's always in the back of your mind
You never know it until it's too late
Uh oh! You're in such a terrible state
"The moon jumped over the cow, hey diddle"
That's the way the Dipsy Doodle works

When you think that you're crazy
You're the victim of the Dipsy Doodle
But it's not your mind that's hazy
It's your tongue that's at fault, not your noodle

Oh, you better listen and try to be good
Try to do all the things that you should
The Dipsy Doodle will get you some day
You'll think you're crazy, the things that you'll say
Like "Rhythm got I, oh, hot am I"
That's the way the Dipsy Doodle works

Oh, when you think that you're crazy
You're the victim of the Dipsy Doodle
But it's not your mind that's hazy
It's your tongue that's at fault, not your noodle

Oh, you better listen and try to be good
Try to do all the things that you should
The dipsy doodle will get you some day
You'll think you're crazy, the things you'll say
Like "Rhythm got I, oh, hot am I"
That's the way the Dipsy Doodle works
