Baby Snake by Elliott Park
I have a sad sad story
I'll tell it in a song
I found a baby python
in the woods behind my home
I kept it in a coffee can
underneath my bed
I walked my baby daily
on a leash made out of thread
For seven months I kept this up
dreaming of the day
of walking into show and tell
with a 10 foot python snake
But I made a big mistake
(or a small one I should say)
My baby snake is just 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 (1)____________ and I made a snake cage

And disappear into the silt

and a look I've never seen
And he wants to take him fishin'

By now he should be slitherin' around
But all he does is squirm
My baby snake, is just a worm.

Nah, I'm just kiddin' about that
But my baby snake 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 baby snake is just a worm, yes he is
My baby snake is just
a little ole worm
I'll tell it in a song
