You got the right pronunciation
But you got the meaning all wrong
It's my, my first edition
Revise it if you like, but just remember
It's a young man's book of bones
There's more to me than the words I read
Is it a language that's new to you
If you open your eyes instead of your legs
I wouldn't have to spell it out for you
She just loves me for my big dictionary
She wants my vocabulary
Complete from A to Z
When she puts her hands on my big dictionary
Mary, Mary's quite contrary
Thesaurus girl you've ever seen
Can you ride my composition
It's a tongue in cheek religion
That I simply just made up
Maybe it's my, my superstition
You don't love me for my rhyme
Well, you know that's just my luck
There's more to me than the words I read
Is it a language that's new to you
If you open your eyes instead of your legs
I wouldn't have to spell it out for you
She just loves me for my big dictionary
She wants my vocabulary
Complete from A to Z
When she puts her hands on my big dictionary
Mary, Mary's quite contrary
Thesaurus girl you've ever seen
Hey there, sunflower
If I was to let your fingers do the walking
Through my Yellow Pages
Would you know what they mean
Oh yes, I would
I know I would
And between them I'll read |
