E                               E
It's later than we think
         D                      A
before you slip into the night
        E                       E
you'll want something to drink
                D                        A


Steal away before the dawn,
G                       D
and bring us back good news
        G                           B


But if you tread in primal soup
        E                        E
please wipe it from your shoes.
                D                        A

Just then a porhole pirate
scourged the evening with his cry
and sanctuary bugs deprived
a monkey of its thigh

A dust arose and blocked my nose
before I could think twice,

Despite the scut that bubbled up
I gave some last advice:

The flesh from Satan's dogs
        D                A
will make the rudiments of gruel
                        C                  G

Deduct the carrots from your pay
E                               E
you worthless swampy fool
        D                         A

Exploding through fields and few
and swimming in the mire
the septic maiden's gargoyle tooth
demented me with fire

I drifted where the current chose
afloat upon my back

And if perchance a newt slimed by
I'd stuff it in my sack

SoonI felt a bubble form
somewhere below my skin
but with handy spine of hedgehog
I removed the force within

Suzie then removed her mask
and caused a mighty stir

the angry crowd responded
taking turns at grabbing her

The foggy cavern's musty grime
appeared within my palm

I snatched Rick's fork to scrape it off
with deadly icy calm

The crowd meanwhile had taken Sue
and used her like a rag
to mop the slime from where the slug
had slithered with the bag

In summing up, the moral        seems a little bit obscure...

Give the director a serpent deflector
E               A                D                 A
A mudrat detector, a ribbon reflector
E               A                 D                A
A cushion convector, a picture of nectar
E                       A               D                A
A virile disector, a hormone collector
E                 A         D           A

play this several times, and then say:

whatever you do, take care of your shoes!
        E               A               D           A
