Sorry big feller,The chorus is all that I remember:
"Timothy, Timothy, we were looking for you."Mike you now have a mission. Check some early 70's top forty sources.
Down periscope! Dive! Dive!

Actually the chorus was
Timothy, Timothy, Joe was looking at you...
Timothy, Timothy, God what did we do?
Thank you,I now will have a reference for all of those who never believed me. I don’t know if I can bring myself to listen to it just yet, years of therapy are at risk.
Had you heard the song before you found the reference?
It has always been my favorite how did this ever get on the air A.M. hits. I often used to wonder why there was not a punk cover of the song when I used to go to clubs, it seemed like a natural.
Funny the guy who wrote “Timothy” also wrote the “Pina Colada” song, all he can write about is food. He moved to Broadway, pity he did not help with Sweeny Todd.
Wow, things do come around, I looked at the - Here are our recommendations based on purchases made by CDNOW customers who bought BUOYS - and there was Bobby Goldsboro! MusicMike hardly ever buys CDs – so who was it?
Somehow I feel enlightened by this.

I remember the song well, although I haven't heard it since its heyday. Some lyrics from memory lane, and I SWEAR I haven't heard it in 30 years: Trapped in a mine when half caved in and noone was left to tell the tale but Joe -- and me -- and Tim. When they broke through to pull us free the only ones left were Joe -------- and me. ..... Or, this one: Hungry as hell no food to eat, and Joe said that he would sell his soul for just-- a piece -- of meat. God it's weird the things we remember, isn't it?
Wasn't there another chorus:"Timothy, Timothy, where on earth did you go?
Timothy, Timothy, God why don't I know?"or something like this...
Sheesh talk about obscure...
Never mind.
Back to the sane.

Ozy, King of Kings...
As a mighty lyric recaller I looked upon those words and despaired! (Talk about bitchin' up some lyrics!)
I wuz just foolin' 'round with my lyrics, but to remember all that!I hope you don't remember your birth, that's supposed to cause insanity!
I knew your "lyrics" were a parody. I don't remember my actual birth, although I have pretty clear memories of the day before.
