Danville for Niceness
Cast - Phineas and Ferb Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everybody's saying we're naughty,
It's getting really hard to take
So we've come to let the whole world
Know there must have been a mistake

So if Santa and his elves can hear us
We hope we've been clear and concise
In the verses vice versus us
Vice versa, us versus vice

Danville is very nice
Santa, please
Check your list more than twice
Guaranteed
Danville is very nice
Santa, please
Check your list more than twice

Can't you see?
Danville is very nice
Santa, please
Check your list more than twice




You've got to see
Danville is very nice

Overall Meaning

The song "Danville for Niceness" by the fictional characters Phineas and Ferb, from the animated TV show Phineas and Ferb, is a playful and catchy tune. The lyrics convey a simple yet meaningful message - that the town of Danville is a nice and friendly place, and the inhabitants should be on the "nice" list instead of the "naughty" list. The opening lines of the song express frustration at being misunderstood and unjustly accused of being naughty. The repeated phrase "Danville is very nice" emphasizes the sincerity and emphasis of Phineas and Ferb's message. The bridge of the song calls on Santa and his elves to take note of their plea and reconsider their evaluation of Danville's residents.


The song is filled with clever wordplay and rhymes, making it fun and engaging to listen to. The use of vice-versa and vice reinforces the theme of reversing perceptions and turning things around. The phrase "Check your list more than twice" is a playful inversion of the famous Christmas song "Santa Claus is Coming to Town," adding a comedic twist to the lyrics. The song's overall upbeat and cheerful tone, along with the buoyant and lively melody, create a sense of joy and optimism.
