Song Information

"The Sound of Grampa" is a song about Grampa.
Lyrics[edit]
- Kipp Lennon:
- Hello Grampa my old friend.
- Your busy day is at an end.
- Your exploits have been sad and boring.
- They tell a tale that's worth ignoring.
- When you're alone, the words of your story,
- Will echo down the rest home hall.
- 'Cause no one at all,
- Can stand the sound of Grampa.
- Grampa:
- I first took a fancy to Mrs. Bouvier because her raspy voice reminded me of my old Victrola. Oh, it was a fine machine. When the vulcanized rubber listening tube which you crammed in your ear. The tube would go in easier with some sort of lubricant like Linseed oil or Dr. Some...
Behind the Laughter[edit]
The song is a parody of "The Sound of Silence" by Simon & Garfunkel.
