What Would Bob Do?
Colin Hay

Looks like this may well be it, yeah we're goin' down

Ocean's fast approaching, and there's this screeching sound

They found that little ol' black box, that they all listened to

The last words that were spoken were, What would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?

I was knocking on the pearly gates, made of precious stone

Looked kind of other worldly, inside there was a throne

I was let in by a stranger, who I'd seen somewhere before

I thought, well it'll come to me, here in the evermore

Suddenly from out of nowhere, a vision did appear

It was my old granddaddy, he said Son, what are you doin' here?

Well it wasn't in my plans you know, I done come unstuck

I played out all my hand and I just ran all out of luck

He said, Well if you can't pot the black, and you know it's not the cue

It may be time to ask yourself, what would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?

Now you may well just find yourself, on the ballroom floor

You know you cannot get away, you cannot reach the door

Just try to relax yourself, and sit down on your hips

You don't have to move too much, and try no to lick your lips

If things seem to be working, and she hasn't moved away

You can breathe a little easier, and think of what to say

If you spin around and she is gone, and you know it's not with you

Then you have to ask yourself What would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?

I was standing by a house at night, going up in flames and smoke

I was losing everything, it really was no joke

To cap it off I'm naked, and there's people all around

I could see an old dog barking, but I couldn't hear the sound

The only thing that I could hear, which came out of the blue

Was the voice inside my own head, saying, What would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?

As luck would sometimes have it, the good Lord was in my dream

He was smiling sweetly, and was wearing Lincoln green

I asked if he would come again, if the rumours were all true,

He thought awhile and spoke and said, now What would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?

And as the lights they all came down, I was standing by the stage

He was cloaked in darkness, and his face it showed no age

I took one step closer, just to get a better view

I swear I saw him smile and say now What would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?

Then I suddenly awakened, and I simply can't pretend,

To understand the way of things, and how it all may end

But if the question's simple say, do I wear red, or blue

Now they're are times you ask yourself, What would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?

What would Bob do? What would Bob do?
