The Lyrics
Yep, so now you know one of my occupations; it's true, but just don't spread it around. . .
Ol' John's a Librarian, old books-he gets his
fill
No-one reads anyone, but some-times
they pretend
Ol' John, The Librarian
I'm afraid of Librarians
and the card-catalog
Book's late I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
Ol' John The Librarian
Ol' John wants to read, Ol' John wants to
have him-a-smoke
Ol' John wants a late fee, but I'm afraid
I am broke
Ol' John's a Librarian
I'm afraid of Librarians
I'm afraid of the words
Book's late I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
Ol' John The Librarian
Ol' John's a Librarian, chasin' me
through the stacks
Date due slips, he wants those
overdues back
Ol' John's a Librarian
I'm afraid of Librarians
I'm afraid of the words
Book's late I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
Ol' John The Librarian
John is a Librarian
I'm afraid of Librarians
and the card-catalog
Be quiet, I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
I'm afraid of Librarians
I'm afraid of the words
Quiet please, I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
Ol' John's a Librarian
Ol' John's a Librarian
fill
No-one reads anyone, but some-times
they pretend
Ol' John, The Librarian
I'm afraid of Librarians
and the card-catalog
Book's late I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
Ol' John The Librarian
Ol' John wants to read, Ol' John wants to
have him-a-smoke
Ol' John wants a late fee, but I'm afraid
I am broke
Ol' John's a Librarian
I'm afraid of Librarians
I'm afraid of the words
Book's late I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
Ol' John The Librarian
Ol' John's a Librarian, chasin' me
through the stacks
Date due slips, he wants those
overdues back
Ol' John's a Librarian
I'm afraid of Librarians
I'm afraid of the words
Book's late I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
Ol' John The Librarian
John is a Librarian
I'm afraid of Librarians
and the card-catalog
Be quiet, I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
I'm afraid of Librarians
I'm afraid of the words
Quiet please, I can't help it
I'm afraid I can't
Ol' John's a Librarian
Ol' John's a Librarian
