[Verse 1]
          G
There's a word for that
    D               G
But I don't seem to know it
    Cadd9          G                 D               G
Sometimes I grow a moustache just so I don't have to show it
(G)
The word for that
     Cadd9
That someone,somewhere chose
         Dsus4                                       G
For that little dented skin between my upper lip and nose

[Chorus]
Cadd9       Dsus4    G
  There's a word for that
     Em7       Cadd9
What does it start with?
  Dsus4    G
A word for that
    Em7        Cadd9    Dsus4  G
I'd sound so smart if I only   knew
    Em7       Cadd9
The word for that
   Dsus4    G
Perhaps you do?
N.C.
(The word you're looking for is philtrum)

[Verse 2]
There's a word for that
It may come to me soon
It dangles down in my mouth, and it's often in cartoons
The word for that
It seems like such a drag
To not know what to call that little fleshy punching bag

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
There's a word for that
It's on the tip of my tongue
Well actually underneath it, and has been since I was young
The word for that
Although I won't quote
It likely stops my tongue from disappearing down my throat

[Chorus] (x2)
