Chip 'N' Dale's Rescue Rangers Theme Song
The Disney Afternoon Studio Chorus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes some crimes
Go slipping through the cracks
But these two
Gumshoes
Are picking up the slack
There's no case too big
No case too small
When you need help just call

Ch-ch-ch-Chip 'N Dale
Rescue Rangers
Ch-ch-ch-Chip 'N Dale
When there's danger
No, No, it never fails
Once they're involved
Somehow whatever's wrong gets solved

Fresh prints
Not since Watson and Mr. Holmes
Have two minds (two minds)
So fine (So fine)
Looked under every stone
When you need some help to save the day
They're never far away

Ch-ch-ch-Chip 'N Dale
Rescue Rangers
Ch-ch-ch-Chip 'N Dale
When there's danger
No, No, it never fails
Once they're involved
Somehow whatever's wrong gets solved

Grey skies - it's trouble
Bad guys see double
When they're around
The chips are never down

Ch-ch-ch-Chip 'N Dale
Rescue Rangers
Ch-ch-ch-Chip 'N Dale
When there's danger
No, no, it never fails
They'll take the clues
And find the wheres and whys and whos

Grey skies - it's trouble
Bad guys see double




When they're around
The chips are never down
