Grunchy Granola Suite
Neil Diamond · Other Songs - Neil Diamond
And the tune can be sung and the words all rhyme
Deedle-ee deet deet deet deet deet deet deet dee dee
Though it don't say much and it won't offend
If you sing it in school then they're liable to send you home
Never knowing what you're showin'
Think you're growin' your own tea
Good lord!
Drop your shrink and stop your drinkin'
Crunchy granola's neat
Sing it out
Alright
Da da da da
Da da da da da
Dee dee dee dum
I know a man was outta touch
And he'd hide in a house and he didn't say much
Deedle-ee deet deet deet deet deet deet deet dee doo
And like a man with a tiger outside his gate
Not only couldn't relax but he couldn't relate
Now he can
Family man
Tried my brand
Dig
Drop your shrink and stop your drinkin'
Crunchy granola's neat
Sing it out
Alright
Da da da da
Da da da da da
Dee dee dee do
Deedle-ee dum dum
I'll have a double, please
