Charles Nelson Reilly sold his toenail clippings As a potent aphrodisiac He ran a four minute mile blindfolded With an engine block strapped to his back He could eat more frozen waffles Than any other man I know Once he fell off the Chrysler building And he barely even stubbed his toe Had a tiny little scratch on his toe Didn't even hurt
Charles Nelson Reilly figured out cold fusion But he never ever told a soul I've seen the man unhinge his jaw And swallow a Volkswagen whole He'd bash your face in with a shovel If you didn't treat him like a star 'Cause you can spit in the wind or tug on Superman's cape But Lord knows you just don't mess around with CNR No no no Talking 'bout CNR Ohh
