Ethel Merman - Archers of Loaf

Unwanted space

Put it back together

Put it in your face

Scatter your salt

Get your own solution

Don’t blame me for all of your confusion

Cause you word is shot

Your speech is shut

Don’t dig my throat

It’s a running sore

Don’t set me back

Shave my brain

Your steps too short

Plain and insignificant

It’s a running sore

It’s the rope

It’s the rubbing

Can’t do nothing cause I’m all tied up

Drown that face

Look at that slobber

Looks like goiter

And I’m all tied up

(repeat last two)

Spread out flat

What did you expect?

Why’s the man always trying to keep me down?

Hated at home

What did you expect?

Why’s the man always trying to keep me down?

Cause your word is shot

Your speech is shut

Don’t dig my throat

It’s a running sore

Don’t set me back

Shave my brain

Your steps too short

Plain and insignificant

It’s a running sore

It’s the rope

It’s the rubbing

Can’t do nothing cause I’m all tied up

Drown that face

Look at that slobber

Looks like goiter

And I’m all tied up

It’s a running sore

It’s the rope

It’s the rubbing

Can’t do nothing cause I’m all tied up

Drown that face

Look at that slobber

Looks like goiter

And I’m all tied up

(repeat last two in the background)

You aren’t listening

To what you’re saying

When you say the things you’re saying

When you walk

The way you talk
