Chicken Lips And Lizard Hips

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

When i was a little kid

I never liked to eat

Mom would put things on my plate

And i'd dump 'em on her feet

But then one day she made this soup

I ate it all in bed

I asked her what she put in it

And this is what she said:

"oh, chicken lips and lizard hips

And alligator eyes

Monkey legs and buzzard eggs

And salamander thighs

Rabbit ears and camel rears

And tasty toenail pies

Stir 'em all together

And it's mama's soup surprise"

I went into the bathroom

And i stood beside the sink

I said, "i'm feeling slightly ill

And i think i'd like a drink"

Mama said, "i've just the thing

I'll get it in a wink

It's full of lots of protein

And vitamins, i think"

"oh, chicken lips and lizard hips

And alligator eyes

Monkey legs and buzzard eggs

And salamander thighs

Rabbit ears and camel rears

And tasty toenail pies

Stir 'em all together

And it's mama's soup surprise"
