There was a most peculiar kid in our town
我们镇上有个怪小孩
Was always late for school
上学总是迟到
He never learned to tell a verb from a noun
他从未学会区分动词和名词
And always broke the rules
总是破坏规则
Though they looked upon him as a clown
尽管他们把他视作小丑
Yet he wasn't such a fool
然而他并不傻
Oh Puddin' head Jones was fat and funny
Dumber than sticks and stones
比棍棒和石头还要愚蠢
That is just why the kids all called him
所以孩子们都叫他
Wooden head puddin' head Jones
木头脑袋蠢蠢欲动
He couldn't spell constantinople
他不会拼写康斯坦丁堡
Didn't know beans from bones
我分不清豆子和骨头
Pencils and books were never made for
铅笔和书从来都不是为
Wooden head puddin' head Jones
木头脑袋蠢蠢欲动
Teacher told his mother she would take him right in hand
老师告诉他的妈妈她会把他捧在手心
And teach him a thing or two
教他一两句
Like his older brother he began to understand
就像他的哥哥他开始明白
He learned everything that she ever knew

All of the kids to the teacher carried
所有的孩子都被老师抱着
Candy and ice cream cones
糖果和冰淇淋蛋筒
But who do you think the teacher married
但是你觉得老师嫁给了谁
Wooden head puddin' head Jones
木头脑袋蠢蠢欲动
