Daring Dewey

My name is Daring Dewey;

I’m the bravest kid at school.

Recess is my kingdom,

And the playground’s where I rule.

I do the dares that no one else

But me will dare to do.

I do the “Swing Ding Fling Thing”

And the “Crazy Copter,” too!

I do the “Backwards Sock Shock”

And the “New Atomic Wheezer”;

I do the “Funky Monkey Dunk” –

Now, that’s a real crowd-pleaser!

And now I will attempt

The mostest daring dare of all!

The “Higher Tire Super Flyer

Belly Flop Drop Fall”!

My name is Daring Dewey;

I’m the bravest kid at school.

That last one didn’t go so well…

But, gee, my cast is cool!
