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 friend and I made a snake 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 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 want a baby snake I need it And when I get a real one, at least I'll have somethin' to feed 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 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
