  • Coco, what do you know?
    Do you know that the hills are covered in snow
    Where does it come from and where does it go
    Tell me do you know, Coco?

    Coco, what do you know?
    Do you know why the workmen are digging that hole?
    Making a mess of every single road
    Tell me do you know, Coco?

    You don't know where the whales go in the water
    You don't know why in space there's no such thing as time
    But you know every girl is someone's daughter
    And your daddy must be proud
    Well I'd be proud if you were mine

    Coco, what do you know?
    Do you know all about the trains of old?
    Well they only moved when they burned up coal
    Tell me do you know, Coco?

    You don't know where the whales go in the water
    You don't know why in space there's no such thing as time
    But you know every girl is someone's daughter
    And your daddy must be proud
    Well I'd be proud if you were mine

    You don't know where the whales go in the water
    You don't know why in space there's no such thing as time
    But you know every girl is someone's daughter
    And your daddy must be proud
    As I'd be proud if you were mine

    Coco, what do you know?
    Do you know what happens to your very soul?
    Where does it come from
    Where does it go
    Tell me do you know, Coco? Writer/s: FOY VANCE
