Jack just smiles 'cos he don't care.

The Idiot Dunce, the Idiot Dunce.
C
Yeah, he's so unco-ordinated.

C
And when we have a High School Hop
F
You ought to see that idiot bop
BbBCC#
And his arms and his legs
DmG
Seem to have minds of their own,
F
And you don't need brains
To have educated muscles and bones.
C
Yeah, you ought to see him dance
F
He moves like he's in a trance,
C
And when we have a High School Hop
F
You ought to see that idiot rock,
BbBCC#
And he's finally proved
Dm
That you don't need a high I.Q.

To make your body move.

Now he's created a dance that everybody's trying to do.
Jack, Jack the Idiot Dunce.

Do the Idiot Dunce.

Now cross those eyes.
Put your hands on your hips,

Now wriggle your backside.

To do the Idiot Jack
