Song Description

"Some things ain't meant for figuring out..."

Lyrics

VERSE What do you call it when your whistling whirligig
Accidentally bumps into your thingamajig
And they're tumbling and they're turning like they're 'bout to pitch a fit
Tell me what do you do about that


CHORUS Betcha can't say Betcha don't know
You could take your shoes off and count up all your toes
Check the dictionaries enclyclopedi-os
Still you couldn't figure it out


VERSE Once I had a doodad was a funny shade of blue
But the whosis disconnected when I went to pull it through
First I tried to tape it then I used some superglue
How come I couldn't fix it like that


CHORUS Betcha can't say Betcha don't know
I worked on my computer until the hard drive glowed
I studied every science but it ain't in none of those
You know I never figured it out


BRIDGE Now if the little doohickey on the gizmo
Starts to spinning out of control
Oh me oh my gadzooks and goodness gracious
And then if it jumps right through that little loophole
And if the whats-it and the what-cha-ma-call-it
Commence to ganging up on you
Holy cow holy smoke holy Moses holy mackerel
Just what are you supposed to do


CHORUS Betcha can't say Betcha don't know
Go look in each library from Maine to Idaho
Find yourself a guru but he's gonna tell you No
Some things ain't meant for figuring out
