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 (Chorus): 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 (Repeat chorus)
