Loudon Wainwright Iii - T.S.M.N.W.A. lyrics

They spelled my name wrong again With an E between the D and the N Some dope didn't know it should be an O They spelled my name wrong again Why in God's name can't they check It's a pain in the a** and the neck Not a capital crime, but it's the umpteenth time Why in God's name can't they check I see my name up there in lights Then I notice it's not spelled right Tell me why do I put up with it Pavorotti or Shirley would quit When you've been around for awhile These spelling mistakes start to rile I guess that's rock and roll Dyslexia takes it's toll You've been around for awhile My parents should shoulder some blame For calling their kid a strange name Spell it with me friends L-O-U-D-O... N, yes! My parents should shoulder some blame My eyes narrow, I start to squint I think that's my name there in print Tell me why do I put up with it Sinatra would have a sh** fit! Wainwright has two w's They get that one wrong and I get the blues That old grammar school try 's Not good enough guys Wainwright has two w's One day I thought I would die When I saw with my very one eye L-U-D-I-N- W-E-I-N-R-I-G-H-T Thought I would die
