Lyrics
There's a man, Desperate Dan, looking for a wife
And if he can't find the right one, he'll explode
Says he'd like one that likes cycling in the nude
No wonder then as yet no-one has showed
You can paddle your canoe up and down a busy creek
The question though is this with no water so to speak
Where did you go to? Who did you see?
How did you know I'd be there?
Oh, and did you remember not to forget?
Tell me 'cause I don't care
And if you knew Peggy Sue, you might know the song
But if you knew her secret, would you tell?
Seems to me, for a fee, we would sell our souls
If only for the coffers, it would swell
You can bless your cotton socks, all the woolly ones at least
The only problem being, what if you can't find the priest?
So where did you go to? Who did you see?
How did you know I'd be there?
Oh, and did you remember not to forget?
Tell me 'cause I don't, tell me 'cause I don't care
Don't care
Doesn't mean the world is coming to an end
Doesn't mean there won't be no more News At 10
If your armadillo with a currant bun
Are you off your rocker, or just having fun?
Take your time, learn your lines, call somebody's bluff
But don't try this at home, know what I mean?
Use your head, make your bed, turn the duvet 'round
That way it will look like it was clean
With a waiting list of one stretching right around the block
It's hard not to conclude, where it starts is where it stops
So where did you go to? Who did you see?
How did you know I'd be there? (Oh, I'd be there)
Did you remember (did you remember?) Not to forget?
Tell me 'cause I don't, tell me 'cause I don't
Tell me 'cause I don't, tell me 'cause I don't care
Don't care
