Baby Snake by Elliott Park

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

I kept it in a coffee can
underneath my bed
I (2)____________ my baby daily
on a leash made out of thread

For seven months I kept (3)________ up
dreaming of the day
of walking into show and tell
with a 10 foot (4)____________ snake

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

My (5)________ snake is just a worm
The vet (6)________ checked
It is confirmed

By now he should be slinking
But all he does is squirm
My baby (7)__________ is just a worm

My friend and I made a snake cage
From chicken wire and sticks
We (8)____________ all weekend on it
This news just makes us sick

Cause (9)________ (10)________ won't keep a (11)________ in
Never could, (12)__________ will
A worm'll (13)____________ right (14)______________ it
And (15)__________________ (16)________ the silt

My friend, he's got a fishin' pole
and a look I've (17)__________ seen
And he wants to take him fishin'
if you know (18)________ what I mean

My (19)________ (20)__________ is just a worm
The vet just checked, it is confirmed
By now he should be slitherin' around
But all he does is squirm

My baby snake, is just a worm.

I don't just (21)________ a baby snake
I need it
And when I get a real one, at least I'll (22)________ somethin' to feed it

Nah, I'm just kiddin' about that

But my (23)________ snake is (24)________ 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 baby snake is just a worm, yes he is

My baby snake is just
a little ole worm
