Scott became famous for freezing to death in antartica.
Colunbus made history thinking some island was india.
General custer's a national hero for not knowing when to run.
All these men are famous, but they're also very dumb.

History is made by stupid people.
Other people wouldnfd't even try.
If you wanna place in the history books,
Then do something dumb before you die.

Noblity are famous for no reason.
Marrie anntoinette enjoyed her cake.
She cause a revolution when she would not share.
And her husband lost his head for that mistake.

The hindenberg was a giant zeppelin.
Her makers made a minor oversight.
Before they filled it up with explosive gas
They should have fixed the no smoking light.

Ahhh!
History is made by stupid people.
Other people wouldnfd't even try.
If you wanna place in the history books,
Then do something dumb before you die.

Tally-ho! tally-ho!
Our king and country's honor we will share.
Tally-ho! tally-ho!
We're marching into history and the grave.

So, if your son or daughter seem too lazy,
Sitting there watching that t.v.
Just remember you should quite grateful
At least they're not out making history.

Ahhh!
History is made by stupid people.
Other people wouldnfd't even try.
If you wanna place in the history books,
Then do something dumb before you die.
