Sitting Pretty (1948 film)
Sitting Pretty is a 1948 American comedy film which tells the story of a family who hires a man, Lynn Belvedere, with a mysterious past to babysit their children. It stars Robert Young, Maureen O'Hara and Clifton Webb. The movie was adapted by F. Hugh Herbert from the comic novel Belvedere (1947) by Gwen Davenport. It was directed by Walter Lang.
The character of Belvedere proved so popular, Webb reprised his role in two more movies: Mr. Belvedere Goes to College (1949) and Mr. Belvedere Rings the Bell (1951).
Plot
Lawyer Harry (Robert Young) and his wife Tacey King (Maureen O'Hara) have trouble retaining a nanny for their three young rambunctious boys. When the latest in a string of servants quits, Tacey advertises and hires Lynn Belvedere sight unseen, only to find out that Lynn is a dapper older man (Clifton Webb), one with many skills and achievements. Despite their misgivings (and Belvedere's declaration that he detests children), the Kings reluctantly agree to a trial period. Belvedere quickly wins over the kids, although his superior attitude annoys Harry.

Sitting Pretty
by: DatsunsWe're sitting pretty
Have you heard?
I gotta tell you that's a little absurd
Some things are too fast for me to fight
I'll jump the cliff and hit the other side
Oh, these Hazy Days, on my mind
Oh, these Hazy Days, on my mind
We're sitting pretty
Hve you heard?
I thought I'd tell you that's a little absurd
The open lies
You gotta smile
When you dine with the man holding dollar signs
Oh, these Lady Days, on my mind
Oh, these Lady Days, on my mind
We're sitting pretty
In the world
And then I notice another girl
Some things are too fast for me to fight
I'll jump the cliff and hit the other side
Oh, these Dazy Days, on my mind
