When I Say What I Really Mean Is
That I really don't know WHAT I mean
(Know what I mean?)
And exactly what DID I mean
When I said...what I mean is?
Are you trying to mess with my head?
I'm a pretty mean fella when I'm demeaned
And I really mean that! Got it? OKAY then...
Anyway...the thing is...what I really mean...
No wait; that's an Elton John song
Sir, are you implying I'm a plagerismister?
You can't possibly mean that and
What are you getting huffy about anyway?
All I said was what I didn't mean and...
What? Why you! I oughta...ow!
You didn't have to HIT me did you?
Aw shucks; that's okay. I know you didn't mean...
