| Scott became famous for freezing to death in Antarctica Columbus made history thinking some island was India General Custer's a national hero for not knowing when to run All of these men are famous And they're also very dumb History is made by stupid people Clever people wouldn't even try If you want a place in the history books Then do something dumb before you die Nobility are famous for no reason Mary Antoinette enjoyed her cake She caused a revolution when she would not share And her husband lost his head for that mistake The Hindenburg was a giant zepplin Its makers made a minor oversight Before they filled it up with explosive gas They should have fixed the no-smoking light History is made by stupid people Clever people wouldn't even try If you want a place in the history books Then do something dumb before you die Tally-ho! Tally-ho! Our king and country's honour we will save! Tally-ho! Tally-ho! We're marching into history and the grave! So if your son and daughter seem too lazy Sitting there watching bad TV Just remember you should be quite grateful At least they are not making history History is made by stupid people Clever people wouldn't even try If you want a place in the history books Then do something dumb before you die Do something dumb before you die Do something dumb before you die |
