Baby Snake by Elliott Park

I (1)________ a sad sad story
I'll tell it in a song
I found a (2)________ python
in the woods behind my home

I kept it in a (3)____________ can
underneath my bed
I walked my baby daily
on a (4)__________ (5)________ out of thread

For (6)__________ months I kept this up
dreaming of the day
of (7)______________ into (8)________ and tell
with a 10 foot (9)____________ snake

But I made a big mistake
(or a small one I should say)

My baby snake is (10)________ a worm
The vet just checked
It is confirmed

By now he should be slinking
But all he does is squirm
My baby snake is just a worm

My (11)____________ and I made a snake cage
From chicken wire and sticks
We worked all weekend on it
This news just makes us sick

Cause that cage won't keep a worm in
Never could, never will
A worm'll squirm right through it
And disappear into the silt

My friend, he's got a fishin' pole
and a look I've never seen
And he wants to (12)________ him fishin'
if you know just what I mean

My baby (13)__________ is just a worm
The vet just checked, it is confirmed
By now he (14)____________ be slitherin' around
But all he does is squirm

My (15)________ snake, is just a worm.

I don't (16)________ (17)________ a (18)________ snake
I need it
And when I get a real one, at (19)__________ I'll have somethin' to feed it

Nah, I'm (20)________ kiddin' about that

But my baby (21)__________ is just a worm
the vet just checked, it is confirmed
By now he should be slinkin'
But all he does is squirm

My baby snake, he's just a worm
My (22)________ snake is just a worm, yes he is

My (23)________ (24)__________ is just
a (25)____________ ole worm
