[Verse] While it will cause the need to speak with an air of hushed reticence I must be allowed to say that I have been getting More ill with every breath of this town I can no longer pretend to be healthy in your presence If you want me to stick around You'll have to let me move to a less toxic town And it's not like we need a full diagnosis A prognosis An invasive osmosis of information It would be overkill to look up every possible symptom But I would like to name it just to frame it With a nice long word that won't be heard Until the chorus [Pre-Chorus] You know it's coming [Chorus] Pneumono-ultra-microscopic-silico-volcanoconiosis Pneumono-ultra-microscopic-silico-volcanoconiosis Pneumono-ultra-microscopic-silico-volcanoconiosis Pneumono-ultra-microscopic-silico-volcanoconiosis [Verse 2] The search engine can teach you how to spell it and pronounce it If you're one of the many people who are unfamiliar With the longest word in the English language It refers to a lung disease caused by inhaling very fine silicate Or quartz dust from a volcano But the odds of actually contracting the disease In reality are very low Still It's fun to sing about and hard to rhyme with Though I can think of some words Like diosis and osis I'm guessing that the smart songwriters Who are penning and scribing lyrics In your speakers probably know this And some might say this is a dumb thing to sing about But my songwriters say "Hey No It's not" [Chorus] Pneumono-ultra-microscopic-silico-volcanoconiosis Pneumono-ultra-microscopic-silico-volcanoconiosis Pneumono-ultra-microscopic-silico-volcanoconiosis Pneumono-ultra-microscopic-silico-volcanoconiosis [Verse 3] You might think this is all a bunch of unnecessary fuss And you might say "If you're sick Just go to the doctor" And you'd be right And I don't want to argue with that But I still think this is the better solution So just let me do my thing And we'll keep it all moving forward
