A Lot to Remember Songtext

von Lorraine Feather

...and he said that they always come in threes, you need to remember they always come in threes. But what's the limitation on how far apart? If there's one and then a second one four days later and then a third one five days later than that, is it still
"in threes?"

He said, "You've got to remember."
But there's a lot to remember.
You've got your mottoes, your maxims,
Your wise little sayings,
Your key superstitions,
Dark admonitions.
It seems there's never a lack of
New information to keep track of.
There's such a lot to remember,
As you're goin' from zero to sixty.

There?s a lot to pick up on,
'Specially socially.
In the words of an ancient Assyrian,
"I often regret that I have spoken,
Never that I have been silent."
And you've got to remember,
Don't go fishing for compliments,
But learn to receive them graciously.
A ton to remember,
Fun or not fun to remember,
As you're goin' from zero to sixty.

You've got to remember;
It's easy not to remember.
You've got your nouns and your pronouns,
Your verbs, and your adverbs,
Your adjectives,
Seven conjunctions, 70 prepositions.
Wow, is that it?
There's never a lack of
Old information to keep track of.
There's quite enough to remember,
A world of stuff to remember,
As you're goin' from zero to sixty.

You've got your B1, your B3, Your pantothenic acid...
Your B6, your B12...your B2.
There may be another B.
If I only knew!
You've got to remember:
Every cloud has a silver lining,
Every silver lining a tiny tear,
And every tiny tear...
Well I don't know where
To go from there.
