The Big Adventures of Little Psalty
DEAR DIARY

Oh, Diary, Dear Diary, we’ve got a brand new son,
I feel so proud, I’m gonna bust my buttons one by one.
But I just know ‘bout tune ups, not about singin’ songs in tune
How can a truck parts manual teach a songbook how to croon?

Boo hoo, boo hoo,
I don’t know how to raise a songbook, Diary,
I don’t have a clue!
Boo hoo, boo hoo,
I love my little songbook,
but I don’t know what to do.

Oh Diary, dear Diary, my chasis’s in reverse
My specialty is truck repair, I’ll quote ya page and verse
But I don’t know a thing about musicality,
How can a truck parts manual teach a songbook do re mi?

Boo hoo, boo hoo,
I don’t know how to raise a songbook, Diary,
I don’t have a clue!
Boo hoo, boo hoo,
I love my little songbook,
but I don’t know what to do.

Manual, Sweet Manual, You can’t send him back,
Give your thoughts a new direction, Take a different tack.
He’ll learn to play piano, mandolin, guitar, and clarinet,
He’ll vocalize and harmonize, He’ll sing solos soon, I’ll bet.

Manual, Sweet manual, there’ll be music all around,
Joy and laughter, singing, dancing, little happy sounds,
I’ll fix the nursery u with notes, music notes and notes that float,
Symphonic and creative, wondrous melodies he’ll tote.

Oh Diary, dear Diary, this might be fun for you,
But I’m radiators, gears and gaskets, oil pans and goo
All I know is truck repair, fan belts, shocks and springs,
How can a truck parts manual teach a songbook how to sing?
Boo hoo, boo hoo,
I don’t know how to raise a songbook, Diary,
I don’t have a clue!
Boo hoo, boo hoo,
I love my little songbook,
but I don’t know what to do.

Boo hoo, boo hoo,
I don’t know how to raise a songbook, Diary,
I don’t have a clue!
Boo hoo, boo hoo,
I love my little songbook,
but I don’t know what to do.
