Maybe Tha's Your Problum Too
*Spoken with a Scottish accent*
Oll ma problums
who knows, mybe ev'ribody's problums
are due to the fact, due to the owful truth
that I am a nudist.

I know, I know. Oll those stoopid jokes:
Where do I keep my wollet, ha ha,
and oll the ones about wha I do when I see
those "na shirt, na shoes, na service" signs.
Well tha's funny, yeah. But you try bein'
a nudist for a month er two. Go'head.

Talk about bein' self concious, ya con't
hide yer body with anything. Then winta
comes but ya con't ev'n wear a coat while
shov'lun the snow from yer wolk way.
Now what do I care about not wearin' coats?
But ev'rione tells ma it's the pric'pul
of it because we're nudists. So I take off
the coat and shov'ul the snow in the cold,
freezin' me bloody buns off in the nude.

Then there they are. Oll my stinkin' neighbas
come out ta see me shov'ul
my wolk in the nude, tellin' their
childrun to stay insyde.

You thank when you're a nudist
sumthin' excitin's going to hoppen
to ya. Well, I'll tell you whot, it neva hoppens
that way. Nuthin' hoppens. I go to the beach,
meet some perverted tourists, get mocked by
sum teenagers, and go bock to the colony.
LIke that, ova and ova.

I thank I'll try sumthin'  diffrunt. I thank I'll
try sumthin' complately opp'sit like bein'
a religious Mooslum covered oll the way to the
veil. But you just con't quit bein'
sumthin' like a nudist.

You're a nudist for life. Foreva. I con't even
wear shorts because of how badly they chafe.
So maybe tha's your problum too, who knows?
Maybe tha's the problum
with ev'rithin'. Ev'ritime you try ta
wear shorts, they chafe.
