| Title song of Neil Innes' 1973 LP (Stavro Arrgolus) |
|
| Song Lyrics: |
How sweet to be an idiot
As harmless as a cloud
Too small to hide the sun
Almost poking fun
At the warm but insecure untidy crowd
How sweet to be an idiot
And dip my brain in joy
Children laughing at my back
With no fear of attack
As much retaliation as a toy
How sweet to be an idiot
How sweet
I tiptoe down the street
Smile at everyone I meet
But suddenly a scream
smashes through my dream
Fee fi fo fum,
I smell the blood of an asylum
Blood of an asylum?
But mother, I'm playing so beautifully!
Ha ha! Listen! Ha ha!
Fee fi fo fum,
I smell the blood of an asylum
Hey you!
You're such a pedant!
You got as much brain as a dead ant!
As much imagination as a caravan site!
But I still love you,
still love you,
oo-oo-oo-oo-oo, how swee-ee-eet
to be an idiot
How sweet
How sweeeeeet
How-ow-ow sweeeet (Stavro Arrgolus) |
