YOU'D BETTER BE NICE TO NANCY

Music by Ray Colcord
Lyrics by Lorraine Feather

(for "Scary Songs")
You'd better be nice to Nancy
Nice as you can be
'Cause if you're not, she'll think a thought
And you'll find you're up in a tree
We're kind of afraid of Nancy
And her little games
She'll turn you blue or shrink your shoe
If you ever call her names

(Here she comes - better be nice!)

You'd better be nice to Nancy
Be as nice as pie
When folks are rude it makes her moody
And lightning fills the sky
The neighbor across from Nancy
Passed her with a frown
Before we knew it we saw her do it
His house was upside-down

(He shouldn't have looked at her. Big mistake!)

Out on a walk with Nancy
Be ready for a scare
If you won't buy her ice cream
She'll spin you in the air
Turn you into a greyhound
Or a bucket of rice
If you are going to stay 'round
I'm telling you twice
You'd better be nice

(Oh Nancy, you look so pretty! Nice dress!)

You'd better be nice to Nancy
She's a cranky miss
She sent poor Stu to Timbuktu
When he tried to give her a kiss
I wasn't so nice to Nancy
Now I'm filled with gloom
Because I've got a hippopotamus
In my living room

You’d better be nice to Nancy...
