Lyrics[]
This is the story of Mr. Forgetful, who cannot remember a thing that he has done.
He lives in a house called Forget-me-not Cottage, but when he first lived there, he cannot recall!
He goes to the kitchen instead of the bathroom, 'cause he can't remember where anything is.
He really can't help it, he is so forgetful, that Mr. Forgetful, he cannot recall!
Mr. Forgetful, he just can't remember, the things that he said or the things that he's done!
He cannot remember when he last remembered, remembering things that he's said or he's done!
He goes for a walk and forgets how to get there. He gets there and wonders just where he has been!
He doesn't remember just why he is going, or how he came to be going at all.
That is the story of Mr. Forgetful, who cannot remember the things he has done.
He doesn't remember like where he is going, or where he'd ought to be going at all!
Mr. Forgetful, he just can't remember, the things that he said or the things that he's done!
He cannot remember when he last remembered, remembering things that he's said or he's done!
(repeat all this a few times)
Trivia[]
