Verse
Because I was afraid to speak when i was just a lad.
Me father gave me nose a tweak and told me I was bad.
But then one day I learned a word that saved me aching nose
The biggest word i ever heard and this is how it goes.
CHORUS
VERSE
He traveled all around the world
And everywhere he went
He'd use this word and all would say there goes a clever kid.
