Cannibals |
| Well he’s daddy’s little boy he plays with his toys |
| He holds on to his daddy’s hand |
| His daddy says sonny you’re a big strong boy |
| You’re gonna be a big strong man |
| And they go play catch they go play ball |
| They go take a walk along the sand |
| Big strong daddy and a big strong boy |
| Living in a big strong land |
| Daddy is he a goodie or a baddie |
| Daddy can I have a dinosaur |
| Once upon a time there were cannibals |
| Now there are no cannibals any more |
| Down in Louisiana there’s a hurricane coming |
| The little boy climbs the stairs |
| And all along the levee all the people come running |
| And the little boy’s saying his prayers |
| And a sleepy little laddie smiles up at his daddy |
| And he’s asking for his G.I. |
| Joe |
| And daddy tucks him in with a kiss upon the chin |
| And says my little one I love you so |
| Daddy is he a goodie or a baddie |
| Daddy can I be a warrior |
| Once upon a time there were cannibals |
| Now there are no cannibals any more |
| Lay down your head now don’t get out of bed |
| Don’t you let the bedbugs bite |
| It’s time to sleep now not another peep |
| And I’ll see you in the morning light |
| And then the radio was playing and the weatherman was saying |
| The hurricane had blown away |
| And daddy’s little boy was jumping up for joy |
| And he was singing at the break of day |
| Daddy is he a goodie or a baddie |
| Daddy can I be a warrior |
| Once upon a time there were cannibals |
| Now there are no cannibals any more |
| Yeah daddy is he a goodie or a baddie |
| Daddy why do people go to war |
| Once upon a time there were cannibals |
| Now there are no cannibals any more |
