Nik Kershaw - Don't ask me lyrics

Inquisitive as ever

He'd like to know a bunch of things

He thinks you're pretty clever

The height of Cyd Charisse

The probability of chance

The capital of Turkey

And the president of France

So

Don't ask me, got no genius to mention

And I just don't know what to do, what to do

Don't ask me, I'm the father of invention

And you'll never know what is true, what is true

The origin of species

The date of Waterloo

Oppenheimer's shoe size

And the latitude of Timbuktu

The square root of thrity-eight

Why they call he-goats billy

The weight of Colonel Sanders

And the whereabouts of Chile

So

(Chorus)

Before you go on may I make a suggestion

To get to the truth,

You must first know the question

(Chorus to end)
