A Word For That - Barenaked Ladies

There’s a word for that

But I don’t seem to know it

Sometimes I grow a mustache

Just so I don’t have to show it

The word for that

That someone somewhere chose

For that little dented skin

Between my upper lip and nose

There’s a word for that

What does it start with, the word for that?

I’d sound so smart if I only knew

The word for that, perhaps you do

The word you’re looking for is philtrum

There’s a word for that

It may come to me soon

It dangles down in my mouth

And is often in cartoons

The word for that

It seems like such a drag

To not know what to call

That little fleshy punching bag

Do you mean uvula?

There’s a word for that

It’s on the tip of my tongue

Well, actually underneath it

And has been since I was young

The word for that

Although I wouldn’t quote

It likely stops my tongue

From disappearing down my throat

Are you nuts, it’s frenulum
