The Ballad of What Me Worry

Intro

Oh oh

Hm-hm

What

Wait what

Verse 1

Back in fifty-two two outlaws caught a vibe in New York City

Harvey Kurtzman drew the line while Bill Gaines spent the green

Comics Code demanded virtue so they acted rather witty

By issue twenty-four they birthed a whole new magazine

Pre-Chorus

Look at the kid

Look at the ears

Look at the face

Behind the curtain

Chorus

What me worry says the boy with a toothless grin

Alfred E Neuman haunts the stands where the dumb begins

You pay a pittance for the secrets hidden in the spin

Potrzebie forever

Let the idiocy win

Let the idiocy win

Verse 2

Antonio brought those black and white spies straight out of Havana

Dave Berg stalks the water cooler checking on the crew

Sergio doodles little weirdos with a crazy cool arcana

I see them on the page

I see them in the mirror

I see them in you

Pre-Chorus

Folding the truth

Folding the facts

Folding the future

Behind the curtain

Chorus

What me worry says the boy with a toothless grin

Alfred E Neuman haunts the stands where the dumb begins

You pay a pittance for the secrets hidden in the spin

Potrzebie forever

Let the idiocy win

Let the idiocy win

Bridge

Al Jaffee makes a riddle out of every glossy back page

Don Martin finds a banana peel and hears the sploink sound

Mocking every movie

Mocking every ad

Mocking every cage

Wait for the satire

Watch the satire

Walk the satire

On the playground

Chorus

What me worry says the boy with a toothless grin

Alfred E Neuman haunts the stands where the dumb begins

You pay a pittance for the secrets hidden in the spin

Potrzebie forever

Let the idiocy win

Let the idiocy win

Post-Chorus

Yeah it wins

Yeah it wins

Yeah it wins
