Something to Say Lyrics by Neil Innes

Nearly Really

0

I dunno what anybody’s sayin’ anymore
Everybody’s talkin’ but I heard it all before
I’ve seen it in the Papers
And I’ve watched it on TV
Words are gonna beat the livin’ daylights outa me
But there’s Somethin’ to be said
For havin’ Somethin’ to say
Each modest opinion and dogma has it’s day
Every quip, every quote, every witty anecdote
There’s Somethin’ to be said
For havin’ Somethin’ to say
I’ve never understood why Truth
Has such a price to pay
Sayin’ what you mean is not like
Meanin’ what you say
Remеmber that the more you know
Thе less you understand
And every word you say is like
A footprint in the sand
But there’s Somethin’ to be said
For havin’ Somethin’ to say
Each modest opinion and dogma has it’s day
Every Sentimental Verse
Every Compliment or Curse
There’s Somethin’ to be said
For havin’ Somethin’ to say
So, come on Everybody!
Let the Working Classes…
And the Middle Classes…
And the Upper Classes…
And the Master Classes…
And any other kind of Classes…
Let all the Classes…
Chatter…
Let their heads get fatter…
Their words won’t matter…
When the Treeeeeeeeeeee…
Falls…
The Monkeys scatter…
Well, it looks like it’s all down to
The Survival of the Strong
Nothin’ is all Right, and Nothin’ is all Wrong
Remember when your dreams go down
The Universal Drain
The Best Things in Life are
The things you can’t explain
And yet…
There’s Somethin’ to be said for havin’ Somethin’ to say
Each modest opinion and dogma has it’s day
Bitter-Sweet, Bad or Good
Overstated, Understood
There’s Somethin’ to be said
For havin’ Somethin’ to say
So why not go ahead and say it – anyway?
