Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dee is the villain song of Pinocchio, the first villain song ever. It is performed by J. Worthington Foulfellow as he and Gideon take Pinocchio to Stromboli's Caravan, telling the wooden boy that he will be a star there. The tune is used throughout the film to represent temptation despite sounding cheery; Foulfellow again sings it when taking Pinocchio to the Coachman ("It's Pleasure Isle for me!"), and the tune is heard on Pleasure Island while the boys enjoy themselves. Lampwick also whistles it to himself as he plays pool. He also sings it at the The Red Lobster Inn.
It was also featured in The Muppet Show in the Kris Kristofferson/Rita Coolidge episode and later the same clip was reused in the Pearl Bailey episode sung by Fozzie Bear and Rowlf the Dog.

Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dee. An actors life for me!
A high silk hat, and a silver cane.
A watch of gold, with a diamond chain.
Hi-Diddle-Dee-Day an actors life is gay!
Its great to be a celebrity.
An actors life for me!

Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dum. An actors life is fun!
(break)
An actors life for me!
Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dee, an actors life for me!
A waxed moustache and a beaver coat.
A pony cart and a billy goat.
Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dum, an actors life is fun!
You wear your hair in a pompadour!
You ride around in a coach with four!
You stop and buy out a candy store!
An actors life for me!
Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dee. An actors life for me!
With clothes that come from the finest shop,
And lots of peanuts and soda pop.
Hi-Diddle-Dee-Doo. You sleep 'til after two!
It's great to be a celebrity, an actor's life for me!
Pinocchio's Daring Journey version
Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dee, an actor's life for me!
A high silk hat and a silver cane, a watch of gold with a diamond chain
Hi-Diddle-Dee-Doo, you sleep 'til after two
It's great to be a celebrity, an actor's life for me!
Hi-Diddle-Dee-Dum, an actor's life is fun
With clothes that come from the finest shop, and lots of peanuts and soda pop
Hi-Diddle-Dee-Doo, you sleep 'til after two
It's great to be a celebrity, an actor's life for me!
Reprise
Hi-diddle-dee-dee, it's Pleasure Isle for me
Where ev'ry day is a holiday, and kids have nothing do do but play
Hi-diddle-dee-doo, if what I hear is true
At noon each day, there's a big parade
The river's flowing with lemonade
A land of pudding and marmalade
It's Pleasure Isle for me!
The Muppet Show Version

Hi-Diddle-Dee-Doo, you sleep 'til after two
You promenade with a big cigar
You tour the world in a private car
You dine on chicken and caviar
