Tom Lehrer - L-Y Lyrics



Tom Lehrer - L-Y Lyrics




You're wearing your squeaky shoes
And right there taking a snooze
Is a tiger, so how do you walk on by?
Silently, silently
Silent L-Y

You're a secret agent man
Who's after the secret plan
How do you act so they don't know you're a spy?
Normally, normally
Normal L-Y

At an eating contest you boast
That you can eat the most
How do you down your fiftieth piece of pie?
Eagerly, eagerly
Eager L-Y

On the lake your boat upset
And your clothes got soaking wet
How do you stand and wait for them to dry?
D-d-d-d-d-d-patiently, d-d-d-d-d-d-patiently,
D-d-d-d-d-d-patient L-Y

In the public library
You fall and hurt your knee
But the sign says 'Quiet Please', so how Can you cry?
Quietly, quietly,
Quiet L-Y

As you walk along the street
A porcupine you meet
How do shake his hand when he says "Hi"?
Carefully, carefully
Careful L-Y

You enter a very dark room
And sitting there in the gloom
Is Dracula
Now how do you say goobye?
Immediately, immediately
Immediate L-Y
