I was a normal kid in school
My mom said, “Don’t talk to the principal.”
I hung with my friends and felt so cool
Then I saw him emerge from the basketball goal
A big bully coming right at me
Began to shake, the earth began to quake
But he turned to be nicer than anyone I knew
He shook my hand and said “My name’s Jack, how ‘bout you?"
And we sang
“Die dee dee die
Da die die dee dee die oh-oh
Die dee dee die
Da die die dee dee die oh-oh.”
When I got home, I told Mom about Jack
She said, “Why don’t you invite him over to dinner?”
And when Mom saw Jack
She saw he had quite a knack
For being a wonder
Being a wonder
Being a wonder
A wonderful friend
A wonderful friend
A wonderful friend
A wonderful friend
And we sang
“Die dee dee die
Da die die dee dee die oh-oh
Die dee dee die
Da die die dee dee die oh-oh.”
