How Sweet To Be An Idiot - Neil Innes

How sweet to be an Idiot

As harmless as a cloud

Too small to hide the sun

Almost poking fun

At the warm but insecure untidy crowd

How sweet to be an idiot

And dip my brain in joy

Children laughing at my back

With no fear of attack

As much retaliation as a toy

How sweet

To be an idiot

How sweet

I tiptoe down the street

Smile at everyone I meet

But suddenly a scream

Smashes through my dream

Fie fye foe fum

I smell the blood of an asylum

Blood of an asylum

But mother I play so beautifully ha ha listen ha ha

Fie fye foe fum

I smell the blood of the asylum

Hey you you're such a pedant

You got as much brain as a dead ant

As much imagination as a caravan sign

But I still love you

Still love you

Oh how sweet to be an idiot

How sweet

How sweet
