178. DIPSY DOODLE 1937 |
THE DIPSY DOODLE IS A THING TO BEWARE.
THE DIPSY DOODLE WILL GET IN YOUR HAIR.
AND IF IT GETS YOU, IT COULDN’T BE WORSE.
THE THINGS YOU SAY
WILL COME OUT IN REVERSE.
LIKE — “YOU LOVE I AND ME LOVE YOU.”
THAT’S THE WAY THE DIPSY DOODLE WORKS.
THE DIPSY DOODLE IS EASY TO FIND.
IT’S ALMOST AWAYS
IN THE BACK OF YOUR MIND.
YOU NEVER KNOW IT UNTIL IT’S TOO LATE.
AND THEN YOU’RE IN
SUCH A TERRIBLE STATE.
LIKE — “THE MOON JUMPED OVER
THE COW, HEY DIDDLE.”
THAT’S THE WAY THE DIPSY DOODLE WORKS.
WHEN YOU THINK YOU’RE CRAZY,
YOU’RE A VICTIM OF THE DIPSY DOODLE.
BUT IT’S NOT YOUR MIND THAT’S HAZY;
IT’S YOUR TONGUE THAT’S AT FAULT,
NOT YOUR NOODLE.
YOU’D BETTER LISTEN AND TRY TO BE GOOD.
AND TRY TO DO ALL THE THINGS
THAT YOU SHOULD.
THE DIPSY DOODLE WILL GET YOU SOMEDAY.
YOU’LL THINK YOU’RE CRAZY,
BY THE THINGS THAT YOU SAY.
LIKE — “RHYTHMN GOT I” AND “HOT AM l.”
THAT’S THE WAY THE DIPSY DOODLE WORKS.
