Lyrics
Well I was born with a crazy gift,
One I didn’t want to use
I could put my face in any shape
Use my vocal cords to amuse
I could imitate almost anything
And it came so naturally
But I wanted to be a lawyer
And that’s no good to man
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la-la
I finished school, learned all the rules
And I went for my first degree
I sailed right through and I got straight A’s
But still they looked at me.
“Make those noises, those crazy sounds,
You’re the best anyone can be”
So here I am on stage tonight
Making a fool of me.
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la-la
Ever since I was a little boy
My mother said to me,
“If you want to make a bundle of money
a lawyer you must be.”
But here I am at thirty eight
They won’t take me seriously
But I don’t mind cause lawyers
Can barely afford my fee!
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la, La-la-la-la-la-la
