DM) Oh 

DM) May I say with pride where I reside 

DM) They call it Dean's song SD) And that's quite a group you have going for you 

DM) There's no bigger choir that you could hire for singing Dean's song 

SD) They make the Mormon Tabernacle sound like a trio 

DM) Sam it's plain to see that you're put out with me 

SD) No I'm just not singing along 

DM) Tell you what I'll do since your a Jew 

DM) We'll call it Clyde's song SD) Clyde's song? 

DM) Here's a happy tune 

SD) Its a sweet melody and I'm happy to say it was named after me but he's calling it 

DM) Clyde's song 

DM) Catchy as can be 

SD) No I don't like to beef and I'm sorry to say the man is a thief 'cause he's calling it 

DM) Clyde's song 

DM) Nothing on your mind 

SD) There's a lot on my mind and I'm standing here saying you're being unkind 'cause you're calling it 

DM) Clyde's song 

SD) My Italian friend we have reached the end 

DM) We just don't seem to blend 

DM) Sam, let's compromise 

SD) Oh, I hear what you say but by that do you mean that you'll do it your way and call it 

DM) Sam's song 

SD) Did he say Sam's song? 

B) Let's give the ending a rhyme

SD) It's not Pete Epstine's song 

DM) Sam's song 

SD) It's not even Mona's song 

DM) Sam's song 

SD) Only thing I know is when this record comes out it better have Sam's song on it or else you'll get a nasty letter from my soliciter(sp) Calhoun and a telephone call too 

DM) Hmmm I'm thinking you're starting to get dirty down there
