Barenaked Ladies - Inline Bowline lyrics

Inline bowline, inline bowline Inline bowline, inline bowline First you tie it around your hand You showed me so I would understand It's the handiest knot, It wasn't in the book that I bought Inline bowline, inline bowline All who tie a knot at the game We all were glad that he came We toyed with tyin' the noose No one knew he'd give it use Inline bowline, inline bowline Inline bowline, inline bowline Did he think that he was nothing? Only ending his life was left to try Over turned over I'm left to sing Really, why? Really, why? Really, why? Really, why? I use it to tie up my canoe [use it to tie my canoe] I've used it to tie my shoes [used to tie my shoes] It's handy on a whim [handy on a whim] This knot is tied to him Tied to him Tied to him Tied to him Inline bowline, inline bowline Inline bowline, inline bowline
