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 (1)________ 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 (2)________ python snake

But I (3)________ a big mistake
(or a small one I should say)

My baby (4)__________ is just a worm
The vet just checked
It is confirmed

By now he should be slinking
But all he (5)________ is squirm
My baby snake is just a worm

My friend and I made a (6)__________ 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 take him fishin'
if you know just what I mean

My baby snake is (7)________ 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 want a baby snake
I need it
And when I get a real one, at least I'll have somethin' to (8)________ it

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 (9)________ snake, he's just a worm
My baby (10)__________ is just a worm, yes he is

My baby snake is just
a little ole worm
