Dave's True Story - Daddy-O lyrics

Pipe down, Teddy Ease up on those drums Hey, Ferlinghetti Stop those flapping gums It's all Greek When you speak Like some gaslight sage No mystique Just a freak From the Golden Age The best and brightest Have a job to do They don't need lectures On Dien Bien Phu Bay of Pigs Russian MIGs It's all quid pro quo Let it go Let it go Daddy-O Tish has a Master's in Industrial Psych Dobie and Maynard are now Dick Van Dyke Remember Ca**andra with the Camus hair She's now up in Williamstown with a Swiss au pair And Frigidaire The word from Saigon Mao will change his tune Let bys be bygone We'll be gone by June No flies here Ice-cold beer On the patio Let it go Let it go Daddy-O Neal hauls ashes Bill's off in Tangiers Jack's gone fascist Bird's been gone for years Life is good Knock on wood Here in the status quo So let it go Let it go Daddy-O Let it go Let it go Daddy-O
