[Verse 1]
A D Well now you've all been asked foolish questions and I think that you all know A E That you're bound to run into them most, most anywhere you go A D And you all know the story of the man you meet on the way A E You say to him, hey how's Trix and you'll listen to him while he say A D Say he's just been to the funeral of poor old uncle Ned A N.C. And the next question he's gonna ask is, is Ned dead?
[Chorus]
A D Foolish questions, you might as well reply D A E No Ned thought he'd have a funeral and later on some time he die A E You know he is so original that he wanted it that way A E Foolish questions, you'll hear them every day
[Verse 2]
A D Then there's the woman that always gives your phone a ring A E She'll talk for two hours about anything A E Especially her bad kin folk goin ruining everything A D A You sit there half asleep, brewing, stewing, she says finally
N.C.
Hey, whatcha doin?
[Chorus]
A D Foolish questions, you oughta tell her that you're gone D A E Just about an hour ago I thought I heard the phone A D It couldn't have been you though cause I've been asleep A Why don't you call me sometime E A E Silly questions get a silly answer every time
[Verse 3]
A D Then you just get outta the hospital after about a three month stay A E Had every bone in you broken, and you're tryin to make your way A D An old friend steps right up to you and says, hey how's Trix? A N.C. You've been in the hospital three long months and he says, hey, you been sick?
[Chorus]
A D Foolish question, nah I like my meals in bed D A E Cost ain't a lot and I'm curing up purity good now A D Why don't you go break your leg, that attraction there is fine A E Foolish questions get a silly answer every time
[Verse 4]
A D Well you step into an elevator and you open up the door A E You walk right into the shaft and fall down forty floors A D And when you hit the bottom and you're laying there in the dirt A N.C. The first person that's gonna come along gonna say, you hurt?
[Chorus]
A D Foolish questions, your dying words are no D A E I was kinda in a hurry and well the elevator's too slow A E I find a save a lot of time, comin down that way A E Foolish questions, yeah you'll hear them everyday
[Outro]
