πΈ Verse 1:
Dm A
Lewis was an odd boy
Dm A
Who had no friends at all
Dm A
He was sickly skinned and tattered clothed
Dm A
And he wasn't very tall
Dm A
He walked to school alone
Dm A
With his lunchbox in his hand
Dm A Dm A
Dreading the ridicule he'd be forced to withstand
πΈ Verse 2:
Dm A
The boys at school would tease him
Dm A
But the most unruly bunch
Dm A
Would pinch him, poke him, call him names
Dm A
And even steal his lunch
Dm A
They would treat him with disdain
Dm A
Themselves uncouth and crass
Dm A Dm A
But was Lewis all that different from the other kids in class?
πΈ Verse 3:
Dm A
While walking home from school Lewis
Dm A
Noticed a girl
Dm A Dm A
With white skin and pink hair like a cotton candy whirl
Dm A
Intrigued by her style
Dm A
And enthralled of her pulchritude
Dm A Dm A
Lewis tried to speak with her but she was quite rude

Ooooooooooooooooo...
Bb F A Dm Bb F A
ooooooooooooooooo...
πΈ Verse 4:
Dm A
Disturbed by his presence
Dm A
The girl walked away
Dm A Dm A
But Lewis stepped behind her while entreating her to stay
Dm A
Her hair soft and fluffy
Dm A
Smelled good enough to eat
Dm A Dm A
So Lewis plucked a mouthful and it tasted rather sweet
Dm A
She'd been waiting for a friend
Dm A
To take her on a date
Dm A Dm A
Imagine his surprise when he arrived a bit late
Dm A
Cowering and sobbing
Dm A
The poor girl was in shock
Dm A Dm
While Lewis devoured most of her hair
A
Lock by lock
πΈ Verse 5:
Dm A Dm A
Now, what happened next is too violent to tell
Dm A Dm A
Let's just say Lewis had an accident and fell
Dm A
He was left there swollen
Dm A
And bleeding on the mound
Dm A Dm A
The lesson was taught had been fierce and profound
πΈ Verse 6:
Bb F
But the couple's fate was worse
A Dm
As the two were walking home
Bb F A
A giant furry beast that throughout the night did roam
Bb F A
Ate each child, someone's son and
Dm
And someone's daughter
Bb F A
It chewed them both whole and left no
Proof of a slaughter
πΈ Verse 8:
BbM7 F A Dm
Lewis is an odd boy, who has no friends at all
Bb F A
But he owns a ferocious beast that's scary and tall
Bb F A Dm
His pet is trained to eat those who aren't very nice
Bb F A
So before you pick on Lewis be sure and think twice
