Lyrics

Dad?s name is Fred but it really should be Clyde
Dad?s name is Fred but it really should be Clyde
cause he?s the number one, indisputable king
King of the piggy back ride

Dad?s name is Fred but it really should be Clyde
cause he taught me the quickest, slickest way to slide
To slide right down a slide

My mom?s Geraldine but she should be Clydette
she taught me how to count and do the alphabet
Got a tiny little dog and his name is Fido
If I had my way we?d call him Clyde ? o

Dad?s name is Fred but it really should be Clyde
At Grandma?s house he showed me all the
confidential places he used to hide

I guess it?s OK that his name is Fred
cause he taught me how to stand on my head
Other things he does rhyme with Fred
like showing me how to jump on the bed

If Dad was Clyde and Mom would be Clydette
and Clyde ? o?s what we called our furry pet
Then I?d be Clydy, it rolls off your tongue
a name, a name you?d never forget.
