My Favorite Worm Song

I AM A WORM (GUSANO)

(Mel McMurrin & Kevin Beals)

Am/E/Am/F/Am E Am E Am

I am a worm

The wondrous worm It's down under I love to squirm To eat the dead And the living's my toil And what comes out makes magnificent soil

Chorus: C G F E/ C G F E/ F G C D/ F G Am Gu-sa-no, no, no, no, no - no, no, no, no, no - no, no, no, no, no, no - si! Gu-sa-no, no, no, no, no - no, no, no, no, no - no, no, no, no, no, no - si! I aerate the earth as I tunnel and squirm I'm proud to be called a worm

Our tunnels flood It rains all night Come up for air Be killed by light When people die Worms attend Though it's dull But no one comes to a worm's funeral

Chorus

A robin's cute But have you heard? Of the massacres Of the early bird We do such good From us you could learn But you make us fishbait in return
