Rumpelstilstkin - Song Book A work in progress - May'09
Idiots
Oh! I'm a stupid little man
I'm a stupid little woman
I'm a stupid little man
I'm a stupid little woman
-
Don't ask me what it means and don't ask me to explain,
Upstairs there's only air where the wind blows through my hair
But I do know what I like and I'm so happy to give advice
-
I'm a non stop talking, a constantly moaning, an always bragging idiot!
Yes I am!
I'm a non stop talking, a constantly moaning, an always bragging idiot!
Oh! Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,... yes, yes, I am!
-
How strange my land looks from over the water
I'll never take that journey there again,
How odd is the land over the water
I don't ever want to go back there again.
-
Keep me safe with the lights on
Keep me warm with the door locked
Keep me blinkered in my outlook
Far from the world view
-
Keep me wrapped up, limited, happy and closed-up
You know so well that's how I love to be.
-
(So please) Don't expect I (me to) think for myself, when the choice has never been,
Don't ask any questions, for I'll know not what they mean,
I work the day long at my dull, dirty task,
And when the day is through all I want is to have a laugh.
(Oh!) The children are a blessing, the ticket out of here
A vested interest, a safe investment, just waiting to be lent
And with the proper schooling, a recreation in their pants and vest
Games to play, upstairs - downstairs, their youth already spent
-
Oh! I'm a stupid little man
I'm a stupid little woman
I'm a stupid little man
I'm a stupid little woman
-
I'm a non stop talking, a constantly moaning, an always bragging idiot!
Yes I am!
I'm a non stop talking, a constantly moaning, an always bragging idiot!
Oh! Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes,... yes, yes, I am!
