The Lyrics
I can’t see for looking, No smoke without fire
Wishing on stars can grant your heart’s desire
He who dares wins, every dog has its day
These are the stupid things people will say
Its political correctness gone totally crazy
Let’s try some ketchup with chicken jalfrezi
No, I’m not bald, this is not a toupee
These are the stupid things people will say
Is it true taxis won’t drive in the rain?
Milan is the capital city of Spain.
Muslims eat swans, also all gays are GAY!
These stupid things I have heard people say
“There are known knowns, and known unknowns
These things are not so bad
Unknown unknowns, we don’t know we don’t know”
Speeches like this are mad
Light years are measures of time not of distance
Atlantis will teach us the truth of existence
Failure’s a stepping stone to your success
These are some stupid things people profess
The world would be safer if all carried pistols
Yes, I believe I can heal you with crystals
Don’t get me doctors, I want you to pray
Stop me if this type of thing no-one says
Gay’s cannot whistle and words cannot hurt me
The CIA faked the moon landings covertly
The Earth has an age of just 6000 years
These things when said almost move me to tears
When you’re alone, if you feel down
When you are feeling bad
Remember the people who can’t think for nuts
Be thankful, be pleased, be glad
Wishing on stars can grant your heart’s desire
He who dares wins, every dog has its day
These are the stupid things people will say
Its political correctness gone totally crazy
Let’s try some ketchup with chicken jalfrezi
No, I’m not bald, this is not a toupee
These are the stupid things people will say
Is it true taxis won’t drive in the rain?
Milan is the capital city of Spain.
Muslims eat swans, also all gays are GAY!
These stupid things I have heard people say
“There are known knowns, and known unknowns
These things are not so bad
Unknown unknowns, we don’t know we don’t know”
Speeches like this are mad
Light years are measures of time not of distance
Atlantis will teach us the truth of existence
Failure’s a stepping stone to your success
These are some stupid things people profess
The world would be safer if all carried pistols
Yes, I believe I can heal you with crystals
Don’t get me doctors, I want you to pray
Stop me if this type of thing no-one says
Gay’s cannot whistle and words cannot hurt me
The CIA faked the moon landings covertly
The Earth has an age of just 6000 years
These things when said almost move me to tears
When you’re alone, if you feel down
When you are feeling bad
Remember the people who can’t think for nuts
Be thankful, be pleased, be glad

Hi Alex! This was pretty wacky, although a little clunky here and there. Should there have been 2 lines about "being gay" (even if obviously wrong for humour's sake)?.
An armed society is a polite society, but other than that this is a pretty good list of stupid things.
So funny except the pistols bit.
