Opening theme song lyrics

What an agent!
What a squirrel!
He's got the country, in a whirl!
What's his name?
Shhh... Secret Squirrel.

He's got tricks, up his sleeve,
Most bad guys won't believe,
A bulletproof coat, a canon hat,
A machine gun cane with rat tat tat tat.

Fights foreign spies
In his disguise,
Takes him many places,
He's a squirrel of many faces,
Who's that?
Who's that?
Who's that?
Shhh...Secret Squirrel.
