- Cruella DeVil, Cruella DeVil,
- If she doesn't scare you, no evil thing will
- To see her is to take a sudden chill
- Cruella, Cruella DeVil
-
- The (something) in her look, the ice in her stare
- Innocent children better beware
- The world was such a wholesome place until
- Cruella, Cruella DeVil
-
- I recommend reading the original book "One Hundred And One Dalmations" by
- Dodie Smith (I recall), it's a nicely British children's book, and the last
- name of Cruella is DeVil (who persuaded her husband to change HIS name when
- they married), all the DeVils are a bad lot historywise. Yeah, it's a pretty
- cool play on words... I believe someone even says in the book "That DeVil is
- such a devil!"
