The Lyrics

The Tilde Sign, it's such a diminutive character that I can only give it a minuscule parody. Though, taken into account the time it took to find the (Editorial Note: A list of invectives, longer than the actually parody, has been censored here) thing, it's more than it deserves anyway.

The ~ is hid on the keyboard
The ~ is hidden for me
The ~ is hid on the keyboard
Oh where can the stupid thing be?


~, ~
God, bring better eyesight to me, to me
~, ~
God, bring better eyesight to me


The ~ is hid on the keyboard
The ~ is hidden, I swear
The ~ is hid on the keyboard
Say where can it be, where, where, WHERE?


~, ~
God, bring better eyesight to me, to me
~, ~
God, bring better eyesight to me


The ~ is hid on the keyboard
I'm searching in vain and despair
The ~ is hid on the keyboard
I've no diacritical flair


~, ~
God, bring better eyesight to me, to me
~, ~
God, bring better eyesight to me
