Honest Bob And The Factory-To-Dealer Incentives - The Benefits Of Language lyrics

Artist: Honest Bob And The Factory-To-Dealer Incentives

album: Second And Eighteen


When you've got some seasoning that I need,
I just ask you to pass it and you hand it to me
Then, I can put it on my sandwich
This is a benefit of language
When Glinda saw Dorothy fall out of the sky,
And she didn't know how; she had no idea why,
But she could ask, "Are you a good witch, or a bad witch?"
This is a benefit of language
Well, Contracting your diaphragm forces a column of air through your larynx and your vocal cords, which can vibrate at one of a number of frequencies
When you broke my heart and you threw it away,
I checked into the hospital the very next day
I asked the doctor for a bandage
This is a benefit of language
But, when colorless green ideas sleep furiously,
Well, it just sounds like bad Bob Dylan to me
There's no deep structure from my vantage,
Although, syntactically, it's language
Yeah, using your lips and your tongue, not to mention your uvula, you can produce many sounds which are then strung together and turned into human speech
Well, when I'm feeling hungry, but I don't want to cook,
I just sit on my couch and I pick up a book
And then I soon forget I'm famished
Another benefit of language
And, when I've got some subject that I hold dear,
I just put it in a song and I know that you'll hear
And then I don't feel so much anguish
The biggest benefit of language
If it's a benefit, then I'll take ten of it
These are the benefits of language
