Verse:
C majorC
I run a small printing facility
FF
I have so much responsibility
C majorC G+G Gsus4Gsus4 G+G
For leaflets and brochures showing local features
C majorC
When I get home late at night
FF
I can’t share my problems with my wife
C majorC G+G C majorC G+G C majorC
So I dress up as a small nocturnal creature
Chorus:
C majorC FF
A augmentedA female badger, a female badger
C majorC G+G Gsus4Gsus4 G+G
In the night, all black and white
C majorC
When I dress up as that badger
FF
I have to tuck away my tadger
C majorC G+G
Everybody says it’s wrong
C majorC G+G C majorC
But it just feels right
Verse:
C majorC
Now Margery has packed my bags
FF
I've had to change my habitat
C majorC G+G Gsus4Gsus4 G+G
I dug myself a sett in our backyard
C majorC
She still says I can come for tea
FF
She leaves a saucer out for me
C majorC G+G C majorC G+G C majorC
I guess life as a badger can be hard
Chorus:
C majorC FF
A augmentedA female badger, a female badger
C majorC G+G Gsus4Gsus4 G+G
In the night, all black and white
C majorC
When I dress up as that badger
FF
I tuck away my tiny tadger
C majorC G+G
Everybody says it’s wrong
C majorC G+G C majorC
But it just feels right
Spoken verse:
C majorC
Me in a short-legged omnivore
FF
Feels like what I was put here for
C majorC G+G
With a heightened sense of smell, but limited sight
C majorC
Now as I lay here in the dust
FF
I smell a male badger’s earthy musk
C majorC G+G C majorC
And I know it’s gonna be a busy-busy badger night
Chorus:
C majorC FF
For a female badger, a female badger
C majorC G+G Gsus4Gsus4 G+G
In the night, all black and white
C majorC
Oh, when I dress up as that badger
FF
I have to tuck away my tadger
C majorC G+G
Everybody says it’s wrong
C majorC
But it just feels right
C majorC G+G
Everybody says it’s wrong
FF C majorC
