My dad would love to watch this TV show about the war

      I didn't understand it and I really wasn't sure

How Schultz would always have a way to make my father laugh

He spoke his only line, while they were giving him the shaft

   When someone asked a question, like "Did anybody call?"

Schultz would say

 "I know Nothing, I know Nothing at all!"
.......................

    I kept on sitting with my dad to watch this tv show

 Schultz never got in trouble for the things he didn't know

   He had to be a genius, yet he didn't look too bright 

He has to have a secret, cause he's doing something right

So when I got in trouble next, Id hold my head up tall

   And I'd say, 

       "I know Nothing, I know Nothing at all!"

When I was only sixteen years, my friends and I skipped school

And I was not the kind of girl to ever break a rule

They all would get their ears pierced and I soon  would face my fears

I chickened out, my folks would freak, to see holes in my ears

    I turned around and saw my older sister at the mall

 And I said

    "I did nothing, I did nothing at all!"
...................................

The years flew by so quickly, and I now became a wife

  And everything was wonderful while starting my new life

He came home and he asked me how that scratch got in the car

I said I wasn't sure because I hadn't driven far

While answering his questions, then I knew I had to stall

 And I said,

      "I know nothing, I know nothing at all!"
..................................

This became very serious when I had quite a shock

 My sweet six year old daughter hit her brother with a rock

My poor son then was crying and my daughter in a pout

I'm so upset I put her in a half an hour time out

I heard her talk to someone, who she lied to in the hall

   (Then I heard) 

  "I did Nothing ....Daddy.....I did Nothing at All!"
