[Chorus]
What are words worth?
What are words worth?
Words

[Verse 1]
Words in papers, words in books
Words on TV, words for crooks
Words of comfort, words of peace
Words to make the fighting cease
Words to tell you what to do
Words are working hard for you
Eat your words but don't go hungry
Words have always nearly hung me

[Chorus]
A ram sam sam, a ram sam sam
Guli guli guli guli guli ram sam sam
Hi kye yay, yippie yi kye yay
Awoo awoo ayee kie chi'
What are words worth?
What are words worth?
Words

[Verse 2]
Words of nuance, words of skill
And words of romance are a thrill
Words are stupid, words are fun
Words can put you on the run
Mots pressés, mots sensés
Mots qui disent la vérité
Mots maudits, mots mentis
Mots qui manquent le fruit d'esprit
