lyrics

'I Don't Know Any Funny Songs'

I don’t know any funny songs
Or songs that will amuse
I seem to specialise in ones
That mostly just confuse
The other day I thought of one
But then it disappeared
I think it just escaped into that
Man over there’s beard
Imagine that! A funny song
Nestled in your facial hair
Or better still a song at large
Inside your underwear
Would it keep you awake at night?
Cos melodies don’t rest
This one has unknown properties
Of which we can but guess

I don’t know any funny songs
But maybe I can learn
Though I know my sense of humour
Can at times cause some concern
A joke that I find funny
May disgust and appal you
But what’s the point in playing it safe
That’s not my point of view
Though I draw the line at necrophilia
And bestiality
I’m embarrassed to have mentioned them
Accept my apologies
I probably should end it here
Cos I’ve run out of steam
And I’ve strayed too far
From my initial theme
