[Verse 1]
G
There's a word for that
D G
But I don't seem to know it
Cadd9 G D G
Sometimes I grow a moustache just so I don't have to show it
(G)
The word for that
Cadd9
That someone,somewhere chose
Dsus4 G
For that little dented skin between my upper lip and nose
[Chorus]
Cadd9 Dsus4 G
There's a word for that
Em7 Cadd9
What does it start with?
Dsus4 G
A word for that
Em7 Cadd9 Dsus4 G
I'd sound so smart if I only knew
Em7 Cadd9
The word for that
Dsus4 G
Perhaps you do?
N.C.
(The word you're looking for is philtrum)
[Verse 2]
There's a word for that
It may come to me soon
It dangles down in my mouth, and it's often in cartoons
The word for that
It seems like such a drag
To not know what to call that little fleshy punching bag
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
There's a word for that
It's on the tip of my tongue
Well actually underneath it, and has been since I was young
The word for that
Although I won't quote
It likely stops my tongue from disappearing down my throat
[Chorus] (x2)
[End on G]
