And I know people who talk like you   I know people who talk like you   I've heard them speak   With voices so meek      And I know people who know you too   I know people who know you too   They send their regards   They asked about how you are      I wish I had a better answer    Oh cousin, dear, oh won't you please come near   There's always something here for you to eat at home    You can use the telephone before you go      I know people who have fun like you   I know people who have like you   You may remember them   No leaves grew off the stem      And someday someone's gonna take you on   Someday someone's gonna take you on   You seem unsure   You practice your demure      And how do things go so unnoticed    With so much good around this neighborhood   I wouldn't change a thing about you    If you were my kid, oh what I wouldn't give   And maybe this song could help you get along    Like nothing's wrong
