Melvin McBrickle by Peter Himmelman Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The sky grew dark, and the thunder barked, and the lightning cracked through the night
The houses shook, and the fish in the brook were fanning their fins in fright
But Melvin Mcbrickle on a red bicycle who was only just six and a half
Looked out at the storm and, in true hero's form, smiled and just started to laugh, he just laughed
[Pre-Chorus]
He said I'm not afraid I'm in the second grade, and I can wrestle a lion or two
When a boa constrictor went after my sister, I tied him like the lace in my shoe, my shoe was blue
[Chorus]
If you're in a pickle, call Melvin Mcbrickle, he'll come save you as quick as he can
If you need some help well just give a little yelp, 'cause Melvin Mcbrickle's your man
[Verse 2]
When Melvin and cousins, who run in the dozens, were taking a train to Peru
They got stopped at a mountain by a llama who was spoutin muddle and puddles of goo
When asked what he wanted, the llama undaunted said he'd be eating the train
That's when Melvin got mad, and for the llama that was bad, Melvin left him cryin in pain, out in the rain
[Chorus]
If you're in a pickle, call Melvin Mcbrickle, he'll come save you as quick as he can
If you need some help, well just give a little yelp, 'cause Melvin Mcbrickle's your man
[Verse 3]
One day at the zoo, a baby tiger turned blue but everyone was afraid of its mom
That cub had to be saved but no one was brave enough to lose a foot or an arm
But Melvin was there, and yes, he did dare to take the cub to doctor Tom
Doctor Tom, with much care, gave the tiger some air, and the tiger gave a good healthy yawn, and his troubles were gone
[Chorus]
If you're in a pickle, call Melvin Mcbrickle, he'll come save you as quick as he can
If you need some help, well just give a little yelp, 'cause Melvin Mcbrickle's your man
The sky grew dark, and the thunder barked, and the lightning cracked through the night
The houses shook, and the fish in the brook were fanning their fins in fright
But Melvin Mcbrickle on a red bicycle who was only just six and a half
Looked out at the storm and, in true hero's form, smiled and just started to laugh, he just laughed
[Pre-Chorus]

When a boa constrictor went after my sister, I tied him like the lace in my shoe, my shoe was blue
[Chorus]
If you're in a pickle, call Melvin Mcbrickle, he'll come save you as quick as he can
If you need some help well just give a little yelp, 'cause Melvin Mcbrickle's your man
