歌曲歌詞
Someday mother will die and I'll get the money
Mom leans down and says, 'My sentiments exactly,
You son of a *****'
I palindrome I (I palindrome I)
I palindrome I (I palindrome I)
And I am a snake head eating (snake head)
The head on the opposite side (snake head)
I palindrome I (manonam)
I palindrome I (manonam)
See that bulletproof dress hanging from the clothesline
See the medical chart with the random zig-zag
Now I'll help it decide
I palindrome I (I palindrome I)
I palindrome I (I palindrome I)
And I am a snake head eating (snake head)
The head on the opposite side (snake head)
I palindrome I (manonam)
I palindrome I (manonam)
I palindrome I (manonam)
I palindrome I (manonam)
'Son I am able,' she said 'though you scare me.'
'Watch,' said I
'Beloved,' I said 'watch me scare you though.' said she,
'Able am I, Son.'
See the spring of the grandfather clock unwinding
(Egad, a base tone denotes a bad age)
See the hands of my offspring making windmills
(Egad, a base tone denotes a bad age)
Dad palindrome Dad
I palindrome I (I palindrome I)
I palindrome I (I palindrome I)
And I am a snake head eating (snake head)
The head on the opposite side (snake head)
I palindrome I (manonam)
I palindrome I (manonam)
I palindrome I (manonam)
I palindrome I (manonam)
Notes
Dial-a-Song had a substantially different song with the same name. This piece, which had a different melody and was sung by Flansburgh instead of Linnell, goes as follows:
I Palindrome I
Born on the 5th of July
One door shut, another one closed
I Palindrome I
She king of Brooklyn she
Master of all she surveys
Lives a life unencumbered by me
She king of Brooklyn she
Man, when I was a young man
Not like I'm driving a rocking chair now, but
Man, when I was a young man
I was free
I Palindrome I
Mister 5th of July
One door shut, another one closes for
I Palindrome I
Man, when I was a young man
Not like I'm driving a rocking chair now, but
Man, when I was a young man
I was free
I Palindrome I
Something just fell on my head
Born on the 5th of July
I Palindrome I
I Palindrome I
I Palindrome I
Something just fell on my head
Something just fell on my head
