Lyrics

Dr. Junk

Dr. Junk the Dentist Man

Fills your teeth with what he can

Airplane wings and corset stays

And when he's done he'll let you pay

In paper clips or inner tubes

Or anything that's slightly used

He's not really crazy

Only nuts and bolts

And rusty rings make him do

The strangest things

Dr. Junk the Dentist has

An office full of colored glass

A garden with a paddle wheel

And funny plants for eye appeal

And though he watches them with care

I've never seen them growing there

He's not really crazy

Only nuts and bolts

And rusty rings make him do

Eccentric things

Dr. Junk thе Dentist built

A junky castle up on stilts

Junk within and junk throughout

And TV in the chimnеy spout

And fourteen levels to each floor

And now he's adding fourteen more

He's not really crazy

Only nuts and bolts

And rusty rings make him do

The strangest things
