Here?s a story from North America!

E MajorE BB E MajorE

E MajorE          C# minorC#m
Daddy, daddy, daddy, hurry!
 A augmentedA       C# minorC#m BB  E MajorE
I saw something scu-rry!

E MajorE          BB
Son, what?s all this screaming for?
    C# minorC#m       A augmentedA
You?re gonna wake the neighbors next door!

E MajorE BB E MajorE

E MajorE            C# minorC#m
Daddy, I think there?s a spider on my floor!
A augmentedA     C# minorC#m   BB     E MajorE
Is it? And will you squish it?

E MajorE             BB
You call me in here in the middle of the night
  C# minorC#m           A augmentedA
To come into your room and destroy life?
E MajorE         BB       E MajorE
Is that what they teach you in Sunday School?

E MajorE                 C# minorC#m
But Daddy, it?s gross; it?s got a million legs!
 A augmentedA        C# minorC#m   BB   E MajorE
A augmentedA billion eyes! A augmentedA trillion eggs!

E MajorE                BB
Son, it?s not disgusting ? it?s just reality;
C# minorC#m          A augmentedA
Take a deep breath and appreciate life!

E MajorE BB E MajorE

E MajorE           BB
Look how delicate his legs are
C# minorC#m         A augmentedA
Crawling across your bedroom floor!
E MajorE        BB
Do you know the proper name?
 C# minorC#m        A augmentedA
Arachnid!!! That?s right!

E MajorE               BB
We?re living in a world that?s full of creatures,
C# minorC#m      A augmentedA
Big and small, hairy and slimy,
E MajorE        BB       E MajorE
You are not the center of the world?

E MajorE            BB
How would you feel if a giant hand
C# minorC#m            A augmentedA
Came out of the sky and decided to crush you?

E MajorE BB E MajorE

E MajorE             C# minorC#m
I guess I?d be scared, but Daddy!
A augmentedA      C# minorC#m  BB    E MajorE
What if the spider hurts me?

*pause*

E MajorE            BB
He didn?t hurt you yet, did he, son?
   C# minorC#m         A augmentedA
Your logic is flawed, you come undone!
C majorC      BB   E MajorE
Swallow your pride.

E MajorE              BB
What if the spider said the same thing:
C# minorC#m      A augmentedA
Daddy, daddy, kill that kid!

E MajorE BB E MajorE

E MajorE           C# minorC#m
That?s the point, dad! What if he did?
A augmentedA      C# minorC#m   BB   E MajorE
That?s why I have to strike first!

E MajorE
What if he did?
BB
What if he didn?t???
C# minorC#m          A augmentedA
What if the world was made of pudding???????

E MajorE BB E MajorE

E MajorE          BB
All I?m saying is consider
C# minorC#m
Something
A augmentedA
Besides your
E MajorE      BB   E MajorE
Thirst? for blood

E MajorE
Dad, you?re right!
C# minorC#m
Now I see!
A augmentedA     C# minorC#m  BB  E MajorE
Maybe he?s got a family!

E MajorE
Now you?re learning,
BB
Understanding,
C# minorC#m      A augmentedA
Finally you?re becoming human!!!

E MajorE BB E MajorE

E MajorE            BB
Let?s return him to his natural habitat -
C# minorC#m         A augmentedA
Put him in a cup and take him outside?

E MajorE   BB
 Godspeed.
