I wish I could fly but I don’t know why
You wouldn’t know if you want to go
I don’t need to be too unkind
If I see you looking up to me
Pull up a chair and have a cup of tea
Baby I could just change your mind
What do I know
Everyone loved me when I was class clown
With a big mouth
I’d say
I don’t want to
Could if I really had to
Ask me where I’ve been
Busy keeping my nose clean
I don’t want to
Could if I really had to
Make a fuss and drag my feet
Don’t it just to keep ya sweet
Taking a ride to the world outside
Nobody said you’d get your head fried
But you’re doing something to make your dad proud
Come over, no one wants to play
When you’ve been at work all day
And you’re mister hyper hyper all the way
What do I know
You crack me up when you play the class clown
With your big mouth
You say
I don’t want to
Could if I really had to
Ask me where I’ve been
Busy keeping my nose clean
I don’t want to
Could if I really had to
Make a fuss and drag my feet
Don’t it just to keep ya sweet
It really don’t matter cause your always something special
in your mother’s eyes
It really don’t matter cause you know that she’s been hypnotised
By the man child
She says
What do they know
’cause nobody wants to employ the class clown
With the big mouth
What Sally says is
I don’t want to
Could if I really had to
Ask me where I’ve been
Busy keeping my nose clean
I don’t want to
Could if I really had to
Make a fuss and drag my feet
Do it just to keep ya sweet
Do it just to keep ya sweet
