Version 1 of the lyrics

  A woman came up to me and said  A woman came up to me and said
  "I'd like to poison your mind  "I'd like to poison your mind
  With wrong ideas that appeal to you  With wrong ideas that appeal to you
  Though I am not unkind"  Though I am not unkind"
  She looked at me, I looked at something  She looked at me, I looked at something
  Written across her scalp  Written across her scalp
  And these are the words that it faintly said  And these are the words that it faintly said
1  As I tried to call for help   As I tried to call for help: 1
      
2  There's only one thing that I know how to do well   There's only one thing that I                          2
1  know how to do well1
  And I've often been told that you only can do  And I've often been told that you only can do
  What you know how to do well  What you know how to do well
3  And that's be you   And that's be you, 3
4  Be what you're like   Be what you're like, 4
5  Be like yourself   Be like yourself, 5
  And so I'm having a wonderful time  And so I'm having a wonderful time
1   1
  But I'd rather be whistling in the dark  But I'd rather be whistling in the dark
  Whistling in the dark  Whistling in the dark
  Whistling in the dark  Whistling in the dark
  Whistling in the dark  Whistling in the dark
  Whistling in the dark  Whistling in the dark
  Whistling in the dark  Whistling in the dark
  There's only one thing that I like  There's only one thing that I like
  And that is whistling in the dark  And that is whistling in the dark
      
  A man came up to me and said  A man came up to me and said
  "I'd like to change your mind  "I'd like to change your mind
6  By hitting it with a rock," he said   By hitting it with a rock," he said, 6
7  "Though I am not unkind"   "Though I am not unkind." 7
  We laughed at his little joke  We laughed at his little joke
  And then I happily walked away  And then I happily walked away
  And hit my head on the wall of the jail  And hit my head on the wall of the jail
8  Where the two of us live today   Where the two of us live today. 8
      
9  There's only one thing that I know how to do well   There's only one thing that I                          9
2  know how to do well2
  And I've often been told that you only can do  And I've often been told that you only can do
  What you know how to do well  What you know how to do well
10  And that's be you   And that's be you, 10
11  Be what you're like   Be what you're like, 11
12  Be like yourself   Be like yourself, 12
  And so I'm having a wonderful time  And so I'm having a wonderful time
2   2
  But I'd rather be whistling in the dark  But I'd rather be whistling in the dark
  Whistling in the dark  Whistling in the dark
  Whistling in the dark  Whistling in the dark
  Whistling in the dark  Whistling in the dark
  Whistling in the dark  Whistling in the dark
  Whistling in the dark  Whistling in the dark
  There's only one thing that I like  There's only one thing that I like
  And that is whistling in the dark  And that is whistling in the dark
      
13  There's only one thing that I know how to do well   There's only one thing that I                          13
3  know how to do well3
  And I've often been told that you only can do  And I've often been told that you only can do
  What you know how to do well  What you know how to do well
