A Word for That

[Verse 1]

There's a word for that

But I don't seem to know it

Sometimes I grow a mustache

Just so I don't have to show it

The word for that

That someone somewhere chose

For that little dented skin

Between my upper lip and nose

[Chorus]

There's a word for that

What does it start with, the word for that?

I'd sound so smart if I only knew

The word for that, perhaps you do

[Post-Chorus]

The word you're looking for is philtrum

[Verse 2]

There's a word for that

It may come to me soon

It dangles down in my mouth

And is often in cartoons

The word for that

It seems like such a drag

To not know what to call

That little fleshy punching bag

[Chorus]

There's a word for that

What does it start with, the word for that?

I'd sound so smart if I only knew

The word for that, perhaps you do

[Post-Chorus]

Do you mean uvula?

[Verse 3]

There's a word for that

It's on the tip of my tongue

Well, actually underneath it

And has been since I was young

The word for that

Although I wouldn't quote

It likely stops my tongue

From disappearing down my throat

[Chorus]

There's a word for that

What does it start with, the word for that?

I'd sound so smart if I only knew

The word for that, perhaps you do

What does it start with, the word for that?

I'd sound so smart if I only knew

The word for that, perhaps you do

[Post-Chorus]

Are you nuts? It's frenulum
