Baby Snake by Elliott Park

I have a sad sad story
I'll tell it in a song
I (1)__________ a baby python
in the (2)__________ 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 (3)________ up
dreaming of the day
of walking into show and tell
with a 10 foot python snake

But I (4)________ a big mistake
(or a small one I should say)

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

By now he (6)____________ be slinking
But all he does is squirm
My baby snake is just a worm

My (7)____________ and I (8)________ a snake cage
From (9)______________ wire and sticks
We worked all (10)______________ 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 (11)______________ it
And disappear into the silt

My friend, he's got a fishin' pole
and a (12)________ I've (13)__________ seen
And he wants to take him fishin'
if you know (14)________ (15)________ I mean

My (16)________ snake is (17)________ a worm
The vet just checked, it is confirmed
By now he should be slitherin' around
But all he does is squirm

My (18)________ snake, is just a worm.

I don't just want a baby snake
I (19)________ it
And when I get a (20)________ one, at least I'll have somethin' to feed it

Nah, I'm (21)________ kiddin' (22)__________ 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 (23)________ a worm
My (24)________ snake is just a worm, yes he is

My baby (25)__________ is just
a little ole worm
