Bb
When he waddles down the street he looks kind of queer,

Because he's got two left feet and taxi-door ears,
F
Jack, Jack the Idiot Dunce.


Am                               Dm
And when we laugh at the clothes he wears,
Am                    Bb       C 
Jack just smiles 'cos he don't care.
Bb C             Bb C
Who's that fool? Who's that ninny?

The Idiot Dunce, the Idiot Dunce.

And we all put him down 'cos he can't think fast,

Jack, Jack the Idiot Dunce.
Am                            Dm
We ridicule him and punch him around,
Am                       Bb C  Bb C Bb C  Bb C
But Jack just laughs and stands his ground,

C
Yeah, he's so unco-ordinated.
F
Yeah, and so disorientated,
C
And when we have a High School Hop
F
You ought to see that idiot bop
Bb B C               C#
And his arms and his legs
        Dm            G
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,
Bb  B    C       C#   
And he's finally proved
                      Dm
That you don't need a high I.Q.
                  G
To make your body move.
F
Now he's created a dance that everybody's trying to do.

Jack, Jack the Idiot Dunce.


C
Do the Idiot Dunce.
F
All right put your finger on your nose,
C
Now cross those eyes.

Put your hands on your hips,
F
Now wriggle your backside.
Bb         B       C
Now you've got the knack
                C#
To do the Idiot Jack
          Dm                       G
>From your head to the tips of your toes.


F
Now the whole world's doing it and everybody knows,

Jack, Jack the Idiot Dunce.
F
He's a real cool cat and a real gone groove,

Jack, Jack the Idiot Dunce.


Bb 
And the girls go crazy when he starts to move,
Bb
Jack, Jack the Idiot Dunce
F
Now Jack's a success he's got nothing to prove,
F
Jack, Jack the Idiot Dunce.

Am          Dm
Even though Jack is dim
Am               Bb       C
His mother is so proud of him.
Bb C                   Bb C
Hey, who's that groovy looking dude
Bb C                 Bb C
Dancing with all the chicks?
C Bb C         C Bb C
The Idiot Dunce, the Idiot Dunce.
