R. Stevie Moore - I Wish I Could Sing lyrics

I wish i could sing Lullabys to you Can you teach me how? All i do is talk a melody But it don't come out a rhapsody Cover up your ears if you can You don't know how bad i am I wish i was Bing Young at 24 Entertaining now When i try to sing a melody They all throw tomatoes at me Listen to Sinatra and see God didn't give that to me I escaped the draft by my ear I told them i couldn't hear Tony orlando won't teach me Nobody thinks they can reach me I wish i could sing On the radio I could teach me how All i do is talk a melody But it don't come out a recipe I wish i could sing lullabys to you I wish i could sing lullabys to you I wish i could sing just as good as you I wish i could sing harmonies for you
