I don't want to be a pioneer
A singer sings a sad song when he's sad
But honey all these years I've been upset
I've slowly turned the kind of blue that keeps your jeans dry
Now I don't need to reinvent the wheel
The singer needs to feel like he's been had
It's all so sad
It's all so sad
Oh broke, oh beat, oh twisted feet
And so on and so forth
So don't steal, don't lie, just tie your tie
And go on, go forth
Go on, go forth
Sing la-dee-da dee-da dee-da dee-da dee-da dee-da dee-da oh-da
Ah dee-da dee-da dee-da dee-da dee-da-da-da-da-da dee-da
Ah dee-da dee-da
So hell I thought I knew why I was here
To find myself a girl who makes me sad
But I went looking round and all I found
Was this here one who makes me tea and brings the crossword
So how am I supposed to bring us down
To think that I got used to being sad
And sometimes down
And always blue
And did I mention sad?
Oh broke, oh beat, oh twisted feet
And so on and so forth
So don't steal, don't lie, just tie your tie
And go on, go forth
Go on, go forth
Oh broke, oh beat, oh twisted feet
And so on and so forth
So don't steal, don't lie, just tie your tie
And go on, go forth
Go on, go forth
Just go
