The Diary of Horace Wimp lyrics

(Monday)

Late again today. He'd be in trouble though he'd say he was sorry.

He'd have to hurry out to the bus.

(Tuesday)

Horace was so sad.

He'd never had a girl that he could care for.

And if he was late once more, he'd be out.

Uh-oh.

Don't be afraid; just knock on the door.

Well, he just stood there, mumblin' and fumblin',

Then a voice from above said:

Horace Wimp, this is your life.

Go out and find yourself a wife.

(Come on Horace)

Make a stand, and be a man,

And you will have a great life plan.

(You can do it)

(Come on Horace)

(Wednesday)

Horace met the girl.

She was small and she was very pretty.

He thought he was in love.

He was afraid.

Uh-oh.

(Thursday)

Asked her for a date:

The cafe down the street tomorrow evening.

His head was reeling,

When she said, 'yes, okay'.

Don't be afraid; just knock on the door.

Well, he just stood there, mumblin' and fumblin',

Then a voice from above said:

Horace Wimp, this is your life.

Go out and find yourself a wife.

(Come on Horace)

Make a stand, and be a man,

And you will have a great life plan.

(You can do it)

(Come on Horace)

(Friday)

Horace, this is it.

He asks the girl if maybe they could marry.

When she says, 'gladly,' Horace cries, 'woo hoo!'

(Sunday)

Everybody's at the church,

When Horace rushes in and says how here comes my wife,

For the rest of my life.

And she did.

Don't be afraid; just knock on the door.

Well, he just stood there, mumblin' and fumblin',

Then a voice from above said:

Horace Wimp, this is your wife.

Go out and find yourself a life.

(You can do it)

Make a stand, and be a man,

And you will have a great life plan.

(Horace Wimp)

(Horace, Horace, Horace, Horace,
