He's Your Uncle Not You'r Dad Songtext / Lyric

Miscellaneous

He's Your Uncle, Not Your Dad

He's your uncle not your dad, he's the best friend you ever had

So come on dig, dig, dig in until it hurts

Just remember Pearl Harbor



(The Alamos and nothing could be worse)



He's your favorite relative and he needs a lot to live

So just bring, bring, bring everything until you bleed



(And he'll send back what he don't need)



If your not in form ten-forty's your salvation

By deprivation of temptation






(Dark and blondes I hear are not deductible)



Oh say can you see if there's anything left for me

When he calls you as he may do

Don't be frightened red white and blue

Just be thankful you don't live in Leningrad

He's your uncle, not your dad



If your honest you don't have to shake and shiver

The food is lousy up the river



(It's give and take and he does all the taking)



Oh say can you see if there's anything left for me

Life has two things you can't subtract



(Death and taxes to be exact)



So just pa-pa-patriotically declare

He's your uncle, he's your uncle, not your dad
