Conjunction Junction lyrics

Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up words and phrases and clauses
Conjunction Junction, how's that function?
I've got three favorite cars that get most of my job done
Conjunction Junction, what's their function?
I've got "and", "but", and "or"
They'll get you pretty far
 
"And"!
That's an additive, like "this and that"
"But"!
That's sort of the opposite, "not this, but that"
And then there's "or", O-R
When you have a choice, like "this or that"
"And", "but", and "or" get you pretty far!
 
Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up two boxcars and making 'em run right
Milk and honey, bread and butter, peas and rice
(Hey that's nice)
Dirty but happy, digging and scratching
Losing your shoe and a button or two
He's poor but honest, sad but true
Boo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
 
Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up two cars to one
When you say something like this choice:
Either now or later
Or no choice:
Neither now nor ever
(Hey that's clever)
Eat this or that, grow thin or fat
Never mind, I wouldn't do that
I'm fat enough now!
 
Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up phrases and clauses that balance, like:
Out of the frying pan and into the fire
He cut loose the sandbags, but the balloon wouldn't go any higher
Let's go up to the mountains or down to the seas
You should always say "thank you", or at least say "please"!
 
Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up words and phrases and clauses
In complex sentences like:
"In the mornings, when I am usually wide awake,
I love to take a walk through the gardens and down by the lake,
Where I often see a duck and a drake,
And I wonder as I walk by just what they'd say if they could speak,
Although I know that's an absurd thought."
 
Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
Hooking up cars and making them function
Conjunction Junction, how's that function?
I like tying up words and phrases and clauses
 
Conjunction Junction, watch that function!
I'm going to get you there if you're very careful
Conjunction Junction, what's your function?
I'm going to get you there if you're very careful
