[00:19.08] When I was a lad just three foot three
[00:22.88] certain questions occured to me.
[00:25.20] So I asked me father quite seriously
[00:28.76] to tell me the story about the bird and bee.
[00:31.88] He stammered and he stuttered pathetically.
[00:33.70]
[00:34.70] And this is what he said to me.
[00:37.38] He said the woman piaba
[00:38.63] and the man piaba
[00:39.95] and the dan dan call back lemon grass
[00:43.68] the lilly root, gully root, belly root Ungh!
[00:46.43] And the famous granny scratch scratch.
[00:50.24]
[00:55.54] It was clear as mud, but it covered the ground.
[00:58.79] And the confusion made me brain go round.
[01:01.85] I went and asked a good friend of mine,
[01:05.35] known to the world as Albert Einstein.
[01:08.48] He said "Son, from the beginning of time
[01:13.79] and creativity there existed the force of relativity.
[01:15.85] Pi R square and minus ten is rooted only when
[01:20.29] The solar system in one light year
[01:22.91] make the Hyden planitarium disapear.
[01:27.47] So if Mt. Everest doesn't move,
[01:30.85] I am positive that it will prove...
[01:37.16] That the woman piaba
[01:39.29] and the man piaba
[01:40.47] and the dan dan coal back lemon grass
[01:42.28] the lilly root, gully root, belly root Ungh!
[01:44.66] And the famous granny scratch scratch.
[01:52.22] It was clear as mud, but it covered the ground.
[01:55.54] And the confusion made me brain go round.
[01:58.35] I grabed a boat and went abroad.
[02:00.72] And in Baden Germany asked Sigmond Fraud.
[02:06.22] He said, "Son, from your sad face remove the grouch,
[02:10.47] put the body up on the couch.
[02:12.97] I can see from your frustration
[02:14.91] a neurotic sublimation.
[02:16.03] Love and hate is psychosomatic.
[02:18.28] Your Rorshac shows that you're a parapathatic.
[02:21.85] It all started with a broken sibling
[02:25.35] in the words of the famous Rudyard Kippling.
[02:28.72] He said the woman piaba
[02:30.35]
[02:31.13] and the man piaba
[02:33.70] and the dan dan coal back lemon grass
[02:38.90] the lilly root, gully root, belly root. Ungh!
[02:43.44] And the famous granny scratch scratch.
[02:46.26] Well I travel far and I travel wide,
[02:48.82]
[02:49.77] and I don't even have meself a bride.
[02:53.33] All the great men upon this earth
[02:55.46] have confused me since my birth.
[02:58.21]
[02:59.56] If the woman piaba
[03:00.62] and the man piaba
[03:01.68] and the dan dan coal back lemon grass
[03:04.43] the lilly root, gully root, belly root. Ungh!
[03:07.56] And the famous granny scratch scratch.
