Dont dilly-dally, come right home I dont see why I must go home When in the streets the niceties Come pouring out and over me Its three oclock and here they come So many that my eyes are numb Familiar faces each and all But I've been ordered not to stall Thanks but no thanks, anywa I know that youre all OK, but My orders come from high above me About a foot or two above me
The merry band of "How are yous"
In tweedy suits and pointy shoes They offer me a ride in style And something sweet to make me smile I hate to hurt their feelings so But Im supposed to tell them no My parents say the world is cruel I think that they prefer it cruel Thanks but no thanks, anyway I know that youre all OK, but My orders come from high above me About a foot or two above me Just keep right on walking Just keep right on walking Just keep right on walking Just keep right on walking
Thanks but no thanks, anyway I know that youre all OK, but My orders come from high above me About a foot or two above me Thanks but no thanks anyway Thanks but no thanks anyway Thanks but no thanks anyway, anyway, anyway
