Song Lyrics: |
"Honkety Hank"
(Pinto Colvig, Billy May)
(Words in are vocal sound effects)
Young Honkety Hank, a mechanical boy
Built himself the silliest toy
An automobile that went when he run it
The neighbors all said that he shouldn't o' done it.
The poofiest car that a kid ever built
All painted and patched like an old crazy quilt
'Twas made out of boxes and tin cans and such
That didn't have even a brake or a clutch.
'Twould jiggle and twiggle and wiggle and giggle
And mutter and sputter and flutter
Would cough and sneeze and and wheeze
Down the street with a terrible clutter.
The people would shout, "Hey, look out!"
Here comes Honkety Hank and his hoot'nanny automobile
Here he comes with a clinkety clank and a and a and a squeal.
All hopped up like a hoppity toad
The hottest hot rod on the whole bloomin' road
Heads up for Honkety Hank and his hoot'nanny automobile.
That old hunk-a-junk would make anyone laugh
The motor inside was an old phonograph
The wheels were wobbly and bubblegum tires
And all would every time it backfired.
But there came a day for when Honkety Hank
Gave the crank a heck of a yank
That hopped-up jalopy went cloppety clop
And then lickety-split past a big motor cop.
That cop, he jumped on his big motorcycle
And Honkety yelled, "I'm sure in a pickle!"
For miles and miles they swerved and swirled
'Till the cop chased for Hank almost clean 'round the world.
They finally came to the end of the chase
And leaped the fence in a hot midget race
Past the others and came in first place
And the cop, he laughed 'til red in the face..."Ya ha ha ya ya ya ya!"
Around and around that big race track
Honkety Hank zipped clickety-clack
With a zing-zing-zing-zing and a pop
He just couldn't make that ol hoot'nanny stop
The people they couldn't believe their eyes
When the judge gave Honkety Hank first prize
A thousand folks in that might crowd
Lifted their voices and sang out loud:
"Hooray for Honkety Hank and his hoot'nanny automobile
Whaddaya say there, Honkety Hank? Tell us how you feel!"
But Honkety Hank woke up in bed
Blinked his eyes and scratched his head
"'Twas a wonderful dream," was all he said.
So he hopped out of bed and dressed himself
Washed his face and brushed his teeth
Ate his gruel, and kissed his mom and went to school
Just like any other boy.
