| Song Lyrics: |
You’re wearing your squeaky shoes,
And right there taking a snooze
Is a tiger, so how do you walk on by?
Silently ... silently ... silent ... L-Y
You’re a secret agent man
Who’s after the secret plan,
How do you act so they don’t know you’re as spy?
Normally, normally, normal, L-Y
At an eating contest, you boast
That you can eat the most;
How do you down your fiftieth piece of pie?
Eagerly, eagerly, eager, L-Y
On the lake, your boat upsets
And your clothes got soaking wet.
How do you stand and wait for them to dry?
D-d-d-d-d patiently, d-d-d-d-d patiently, patient, L-Y
In the public library
You fall and you hurt your knee,
But the sign says, “quiet please,” so how can you cry?
Quietly, quietly, quiet, L-Y
As you walk along the street,
A porcupine you meet.
How do you shake his hand when he says hi?
Carefully, carefully, careful, L-Y
You enter a very dark room
And sitting there in the gloom
Is Dracula! Now, how do you say goodbye?
Immediately, immediately, immediate-L-Y!
Bye-Bye! (Bill L) |
