The Lyrics
Mr. Chatterly wants to be like Darius Matthews. The refrain, verse, chorus, and intro are all sung by Mr. Chatterly.
[The song starts with Mr. Chatterly's chair moving, and Mr. Chatterly.]
[Intro: Mr. Chatterly]
Toot toot too too too tooroom.
Tick tick tick too too tooroom.
Tick tick tick too too tooroom.
Tick tick tick too too tooroom.
[Refrain: Mr. Chatterly]
They keep on ruining, ruining, ruining,
my alphabet issues.
They keep on ruining, ruining, ruining,
my alphabet issues.
[Chorus: Mr. Chatterly]
I want to be like Darius Matthews,
Do you know?
Be like Darius Matthews, and walk into his studio.
I want to be like Darius Matthews,
In his show,
So, oh, what have I got to choose?
[Verse: Mr. Chatterly]
Leap like froggies,
Who have no clue how to leap.
Swim the swimmers,
Who can't swim in the deep.
Wake the sleepers,
Who have fallen asleep.
Oh, but I can't sing the blues.
[Chorus: Mr. Chatterly]
I just want to be like Darius Matthews,
Don't you know?
Be like Darius Matthews, and walk into his studio.
I want to be like Darius Matthews,
To the show,
Oh no, what would I choose?
[Refrain: Mr. Chatterly]
Now they're here to ruin, ruin, ruin, my alphabet issues.
They're here to ruin, ruin, ruin, my alphabet issues.
They keep on ruining, ruining, ruining, my alphabet issues.
They keep on ruining, ruining, ruining, my alphabet issues.
Tooroot-tooroot.
Tooroot-tooroot.
Tooroot-tooroot.
Tooroot-tooroot.

I'm wanting to be like Darius Matthews,
But you don't know.
I wanna be like Darius Matthews, and walk into his studio.
I want to be like Darius Matthews, in his show.
Oh no, I want to choose!
[Refrain: Mr. Chatterly]
They keep on ruining, ruining, ruining, my alphabet issues.
They keep on ruining, ruining, ruining, my alphabet issues.
Tick tick tick too too tooroom.
Tick tick tick too too tooroom.
Tick tick tick too too tooroom.
