WHO CARES ANYHOW

as sung by Billy Jones & Ernest Hare, the Happiness Boys


They say that every fireman wears suspenders that are red
Because they hold his trousers up and keep him out of bed.
But who cares, who cares, who cares anyhow?
My folks all say I was born this way
But who cares anyhow?
A bumblebee will never sing about his little honey
I hardly think a policeman's club will ever strike me funny.
But who cares, who cares, who cares anyhow?
I know some jokes that I can't tell folks
But who cares anyhow?
I never saw a butterfly that ever could make butter
And even all the nicest streets will end up in the gutter.
But who cares, who cares, who cares anyhow?
I'm so darned bright that I shine at night
But who cares anyhow?
They call me maple sugar, 'cause I'm just a refined sap,
And when my girl feels all run down, she winds up in my lap.
But who cares, who cares, who cares anyhow?
You'll all agree something's wrong with me
But who cares anyhow?
A bullfrog lives a long long time although each night he croaks,
And I know my sweetie's not so hot because she never smokes.
But who cares, who cares, who cares anyhow?
It's a crazy song, and it won't last long
But who cares anyhow?
They say that a banana skin will make a lovely slipper
I don't believe I'll ever drink moonshine from the big dipper.
But who cares, who cares, who cares anyhow?
We told the bell, but the bell can't tell
So who cares anyhow?

Who cares, who cares, who cares, who cares, who cares anyhow?
I do, I do, I do...
Oh, We don't care
We know you don't care
So who cares anyhow?
