  Lyrics from the unofficial page:

  

  Well he walks with a swagger and he talks with a sneer

  Everything about him tells you don't come near

  He doesn't bother looking to the left or to the right

  He knows where he's goin' and he keeps it in sight

  He can never figure out why he's so uptight

  What an idiot he is

  

  He's always gotta make a big impression on you

  Gotta show you what he has and tell you what he can do

  And all the while he's gonna try to cut you down to size

  Try to hide the simple truth with his elaborate lies

  One thing he'll never do is look you in the eye

  What an idiot he is

  

  He hasn't bothered thinking since he was a kid

  He'll tell you he already knew what he had to know by then

  Anyone who disagrees with him should be in prison

  All he wants is what is his, even if it isn't

  You can talk until you're blue but you can never make him listen

  What an idiot he is

  

  He thinks his only problem is he ain't got more

  Wants to get so rich he can buy the whole damn store

  Well I guess he knows the value of a hard earned buck

  If you try to bum some money, you'll have no luck

  But he'll spend a couple hundred dollars for a decal on his truck

  No problem

  

  The only thing he cares about is what it's gonna cost 

  And the only shame he knows is that the home team lost (you see the game?)

  He's got an EZ-Boy recliner and a colour TV

  A Colt .45 hidden underneath the seat

  He can hardly wait to shoot somebody in the knee

  What an idiot he is

  

  He doesn't even know what an idiot he is 

  He says: "What's an idy idy?" Lord have pity! 

  His favourite food is Wonderbread and Cheez-Whiz, gimmie! 

  

  He's one percent attention and ninety-nine show 

  He's always got an answer even if he doesn't know 

  Tell him what it's at, he'll tell you where to go 

  What an idiot he is. 

  

  Well I see him everywhere I go and he gives me a pain 

  When I see him in the movies he rattles cellophane 

  He's always got a dumb expression on his face 

  Makes me feel sorry for the human race 

  'Cause I've got a funny feeling that he's runnin' the place...
