Why, Oh Why? |
| Why can’t a dish break a hammer? |
| Why oh why oh why? |
| 'Cause a hammer’s a hard head |
| Goodbye goodbye goodbye |
| Why, oh why, oh why oh, why? |
| Why, oh why, oh why? |
| Because because because because |
| Goodbye goodbye goodbye |
| Why can’t a bird eat an elephant? |
| Why, oh why, oh why? |
| 'Cause an elephant’s got a pretty hard skin |
| Goodby goodbye goodbye |
| Why can’t a mouse eat a streetcar? |
| Why, oh why, oh why? |
| 'Cause a mouse’s stomach could never get big enough to hold a streetcar |
| Goodbye goodbye goodbye |
| Why does a horn make music? |
| Why, oh why, oh why? |
| Because the horn-blower blows it |
| Goodbye goodbye goodbye |
| Why does a cow drink water? |
| Tell me why 'n' why? |
| Because the cow gets thirsty just like you or me or anybody else |
| Goodbye goodbye goodbye |
| Why don’t you answer my questions? |
| Why, oh why, oh why? |
| 'Cause I don’t know the answers |
| Goodby goodbye goodbye |
| What make the landlord take money? |
| Why, oh why, oh why? |
| I don’t know that one myself |
| Goodbye goodbye goodbye |
| Why’s there no pennies for ice cream |
| Why, oh why, oh why? |
| You put all the pennies in the telephone |
| Goodbye goodbye goodbye |
| Why can’t a rabbit chase an eagle? |
| Tell me why, oh why? |
| 'Cause the last rabbit that took out and chased after an eagle didn’t come |
| Out so good and that’s why rabbits don’t chase after eagles that’s all I |
| Know about rabbits and eagles? |
| Because because because |
| Why ain’t my grandpa my grandma? |
| Why, oh why, oh why? |
| Same reason your dad’s not your mommy |
| Goodbye goodbye goodbye |
| Why couldn’t the wind blow backwards? |
| Why, oh why, oh why? |
| 'Cause it might backfire and hurt somebody and if it |
| Hurt somebody it’d keep on hurting them |
| Goodbye goodbye goodbye |
