When I was younger, just a bad little kid
My mama noticed funny things I did
Like shootin' puppies with a BB gun
I'd poison guppies, and when I was done
I'd find a pussycat and bash its head
That's when my mama said

What did she say?

She said, "My boy, I think someday
You'll find a way
To make your natural tendencies pay

You'll be a dentist
You have a talent for causin' things pain
Son, be a dentist
People will pay you to be inhumane
Your temperament's wrong for the priesthood
And teaching would suit you still less
Son, be a dentist
You'll be a success

DIALOGUE

I am your dentist
And I enjoy the career that I picked
I am your dentist
And I get off on the pain I inflict

I thrill when I drill a bicuspid
It's swell though they tell me I'm maladjusted
And though it may cause my patients distress
Somewhere, somewhere in heaven above me
I know, I know, that my mama's proud of me

Oh, mama

'Cause I'm a dentist and a success
