Chicken Lips

Springsteen Bruce

G            G                C                G
Yea, when I was a little kid see I never liked to eat
G               G                   D                 D
And Mama put things on my plate and I'd dump 'em on her feet
G                G                C             G
But then one day she made this soup I ate it all in bed
G                      G           D                G
I asked her what she put in it, well this is what she said

Oh chicken lips and lizard hips and alligator eyes
Yea monkey legs and buzzard eggs and salimander thighs
Well, rabbit ears and camel rears and tasty toenail pies
Stir 'em all together and it's Mama's Soup Surprise.

Well now I went in the bathroom and I stood beside the sink
I said I'm feeling slightly ill and I'd think I'd like a drink
Mama said I have just the thing, I'll get it in a wink
G               G           C           G
It's full of lots of protein and vitamins, I think

It was chicken lips and lizard hips and alligator eyes
Yea monkey legs and buzzard eggs and salimander thighs
Rabbit ears and camel rears and tasty toenail pies
Stir 'em all together and it's Mama's Soup Surprise.
