Timothy Dimwit

Timothy Dimwit Timothy Dimwit would not go to school And all of his mates considered that cool But Timothy Dimwit was never in school And as a result he knew nothing at all Timothy Dimwit couldn't spell bat He couldn't spell dog and he couldn't spell cat He couldn't spell cod and he couldn't spell sprat He did once spell hat, he was quite proud of that Timothy Dimwit could not kick a ball Because he decided, there must be a tool Or some kind of whistle through which he could call To cause it to rise up and bounce off a wall Timothy Dimwit thought chips grew on trees That candyfloss simply blew in on a breeze And honey he wouldn't have guessed came from bees But meatballs, he thought, could give cows trembly knees Timothy didn't know Francais was French That there was a kind of a fish called a Tench Or that in the park, there's a seat called a bench And Americans all call a spanner a wrench So, I hope that you don't think that I'm preaching at all With good education, you're nobody's fool But Timothy Dimwit did not go to school And as a result, he knew nothing at all.
