And I know people who talk like you I know people who talk like you I've heard them speak With voices so meek And I know people who know you too I know people who know you too They send their regards They asked about how you are I wish I had a better answer Oh cousin, dear, oh won't you please come near There's always something here for you to eat at home You can use the telephone before you go I know people who have fun like you I know people who have like you You may remember them No leaves grew off the stem And someday someone's gonna take you on Someday someone's gonna take you on You seem unsure You practice your demure And how do things go so unnoticed With so much good around this neighborhood I wouldn't change a thing about you If you were my kid, oh what I wouldn't give And maybe this song could help you get along Like nothing's wrong
