Never Trust A Puppet

• C

(Male voice):
C            G             Am             F
When I was a young boy, I'd climb into my bed.
   C                 Am                 F      
My mother would turn off the light, and pat my little 
G
head.
Am                     C
She'd speak of lessons she had learned,
          F             C
Important wisdom passed along.
           C           Am
Then she'd stand in my shadowed room
    F         G      C
And sing this little song.


(Female/high voice):
C             G
Never trust a puppet,
Am              F
puppets are un--true.
C                  Am
No matter what the puppet says,
F                   G
he don't care bout' you.

C             G
Never trust a puppet,
Am                 F
puppets are in-sin-cere.
C              Am
Some how every-one finds out,
F                             G
what you whisper in a puppets ear.

C                  G
When I was a young girl,
Am                          F
I got a puppet for my birth-day.
C                  Am    
We went everywhere together,
   F           G            C
we played, and laughed, and sang.

C                      G
But the puppet started lying,
Am                                      F
and taking things that didn't belong to it.
C                                             Am
And saying inappropriate things at my parents parties.
    F                                G
And one night when I was asleep, the puppet ran away.

C             G
Never trust a puppet,
       Am                 F
or the feelings that they share.
C                  Am
There is something not quite right,
F            G
in a puppets stare.

C                          G
Never give your heart to a puppet,
Am                  F
always stay on your guard.
C            Am
Puppets will betray you.....
F           G      C
Puppets are really weird.

C            G
When I was a tiny girl,
F                         C
my aunt had a little lamb puppet.
C                 G
She'd use it as a oven mitt,
         F                          C
and take a hot casserole out of the oven.

C                   G
Then she'd chase me around the house,
         F             C
with the puppet on her hand.

Screaming..
            *no chords*
"I BURNT MY TONGUE, I BURNT MY TONGUE!"

*long pause*
C             G
Never trust a puppet,
Am              F
puppets are un--true.
C                  Am
No matter what the puppet says,
F             G     C
he don't care bout' you.
