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

When you've got some seasoning that I need, I just ask you to pa** 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
