Mr. K comes out to play
Inquisitive as ever
He`d like to know a bunch of things
He thinks you`re pretty clever
The height of Cyd Charisse
The probability of chance
The capital of Turkey
And the president of France
So
Don`t ask me, got no genius to mention
And I just don`t know what to do, what to do
Don`t ask me, I`m the father of invention
And you`ll never know what is true, what is true
The origin of species
The date of Waterloo
Oppenheimer`s shoe size
And the latitude of Timbuktu
The square root of thrity-eight
Why they call he-goats billy
The weight of Colonel Sanders
And the whereabouts of Chile
So
(Chorus)
Before you go on may I make a suggestion
To get to the truth,
You must first know the question
(Chorus to end)
