The Dum Song



Dum dum dum dum dum...

A world full of faces - no one to talk to

A world full of places - nowhere to walk to

A guitar full of music - the song on every string

Just because you know the words don't mean you can sing



Just because you know the words don't mean you can sing

Just because you wear a crown don't make you a king

Just because it's in the phonebook don't make it ring

Just because you know the words don't mean you can sing



Build the better mouse trap - everybody buys

A million dollar funeral - nobody cries

Brush away the cobwebs where the weeds grow in the spring

Here lies the man who knew the words but never learned to sing



Just because you know the words don't mean you can sing

Just because you wear a crown don't make you a king

Just because it's in the phonebook don't make it ring

Just because you know the words don't mean you can sing

Dum dum dum dum dum...
