"Kinderlumper" is a song from the episode, "Der Kinderlumper". It tells the story of the Drusselsteinian mythical figure of the same name.

There are two different versions of the song: one depicting the Kinderlumper as a ferocious figure who punishes misbehaving children by putting them in his gundersack, and another depicting him as a positive figure. The former is sung by Dr. Doofenshmirtz, as originally sung by his mother to him, while the latter is partially sung by Roger later in the episode; this version was also taught by their mother.

Lyrics[]

Der 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
Der Kinderlumper's gonna get ya
Der 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 Der Kinderlumper's gonna strike tonight!
Der Kinderlumper's gonna get ya
Der Kinderlumper's gonna get ya!
Der Kinderlumper's gonna get ya
Der Kinderlumper's gonna get ya!
He's gonna get you good!
Der Kinderlumper's gonna get ya!

The Kinderlumper's always going to love you
And bring you lots of presents while you sleep...
