[applause]
[Verse 1]
I'd like to say hello and welcome you, good day, that is my name
Come here and sit down, I'm so glad you even really truly came
We can even go or take a walk or something like that
Or something like that
But first I need to introduce my what and introduce my when
[Interlude]
Let us sing! (Ahh, ahh ahh)
[Verse 2]
Its name I like to call, it likes to say it's nothing (it's nothing) (ha!)
It lives and breathes and it insists that, it insists that it is something (it's something)
It never liked to speak or run or walk or sleep or eat (aa-ah, aa-ah, aa-ah, aa-ah)
It even thought that everybody tried to thought to take its seat
[Chorus]
Lookin' through glass eyes, give it a few tries
Nothing goes right in its time
Kill all its bad dreams, wonder 'bout no things
Circles and spirals in mind
[Verse 3]
But we know that this song is not about a no or yes or why
What's really truly what I say is that about a little sigh (aa-ahh)
So come along, I think I'm done, I think we're done, yes this is done
What's truly that I think about it, and it thinks about a ton
[Interlude]
Let us sing! (Ahh, ahh ahh)
[Chorus]
Lookin' through glass eyes, give it a few tries
Nothin' goes right in its time
Kill all its bad dreams, wonder 'bout no things
Circles and spirals in mind
[Bridge]
I thought you knew I knew
But why and by and why and by and by
I wanted you to know
I thought you knew but why and by and why
[Interlude]
Everyone loves a potato monkey...
I stepped in gum! I stepped in gum! Ohoho!
Where are the...
[Outro]
Let us sing, let us sing
Let us sing, let us sing
Let us sing, let us sing
(If you have two scissors and a computer, then you can...)
Let us sing, let us sing
Let us sing, let us sing
(Birds and bees and television)
Let us sing, let us sing
(Cardboard houses, x-ray vision)
Let us sing, let us sing
(Many little silly rhymes)
Let us sing, let us sing
(Things forgotten lost their time)
Let us sing, let us sing
(Telephones and silly games)
Let us sing
(Periods and lots of question marks)
Let us sing
