Gumby Jaws Lament Lyrics

("Weird" Al Yankovic - accordion) I've never really understood Why my family hated me But I know they did All of them. Right fromt he start. I never had many friends of my own We moved a lot We had to My mother was mentally ill And she would start fires in nurseries So we had to move a lot. I never graduated from school I just stopped going after the seventh grade I remember not being able to do enough pushups And this fat homosexual gym coach Kept pushing me on the back of my neck That's when I first realized That I didn't want to become another Old fat homosexual gym coach Life is like that. I watched a lot of television Mostly the game shows I could tell you the cost of about anything Between 1966 and 1969 But that and a nickel won't get me on a bus I love buses I really like the smell don't you I could live in the middle of a crowded bus If someone asked you for a quarter So that they could play a song on the jukebox And you gave it to them And they bought a cup of coffee instead Would you be mad I've never really understood Why my family hated me But I know they did All of them. Right from the start. That's why. Yeah.
