The title of this song was inspired by the comic strip, "Dennis the Menace." The song is about the young son of the singer's girlfriend at the time. The inspiration of the song came from when the singer saw the little boy emptying his mother's purse for loose change so he could get some bubblegum from the machine. So, all in all, I think this song just epitomizes the shenanigans of most little boys, just like Dennis the Menace.
