Kinderlumper



"Kinderlumper" is a song sung by Dr. Doofenshmirtz. Originally sung by his mother to him, it tells the Drusselsteinian fairy tale of the ferocious Kinderlumper, who takes misbehaving children and puts them in his gundersack. A version presenting the Kinderlumper as a positive figure is partially sung by Roger Doofenshmirtz; this version was also taught by their mother. The different versions are meant as another reminder about how much more their mother loved Roger than Heinz.

Dr. Doofenshmirtz's version
Dr. Doofenshmirtz: The Kinderlumper's probably gonna get ya 'Cause you've only ever been an awful kid Pretty soon he's gonna come and catch ya Then everyone will know just what you did Because...

If you make some bubbles in the bathtub If you've got saliva in your mouth If you ever feel the need to blink your eyeballs If he finds you breathing in and out

The Kinderlumper's gonna get ya The Kinderlumper's gonna get ya

If you ever drink a glass of water If you turn your head just slightly to the right If you ever feel the need to use the bathroom Then the Kinderlumper's gonna strike tonight!

The Kinderlumper's gonna get ya The Kinderlumper's gonna get ya! The Kinderlumper's gonna get ya The Kinderlumper's gonna get ya! He's gonna get you good!

The Kinderlumper's gonna get ya!

Roger's version
Roger: The Kinderlumper's always going to love you

And bring you lots of presents while you sleep...
