D5               C5
Like father, like son
D5                          C5
Not flesh nor fish nor bone, a red rag hangs from an open mouth
D5                              C5
Alive at both ends but a little dead in the middle
D5                           C5
A-tumbling and a-bumbling he will go
E5                     F#5 
All the king's horses and all the king's men
      E5                     F#5 
could never put a smile on that face
(2)  follows the same pattern as (1)

He's a sly one, he's a shy one, wouldn't you be too?
Scared to be left all on his own
Hasn't a, hasn't a friend to play with the ugly duckling
The pressure on, the bubble will burst before our eyes
All the while in perfect time 
his tears are falling on the ground
But if you don't stand up you don't stand a chance!

This is a "chorus" bit, which comes after:
   "...don't stand a chance"
   "...all to see at night"
   "...you'd better watch out"
   "...just a pool of tears"
                                                                      (repeat)

all to see at night

(3)  like (1)

In season, out of season

what's the dff'rence when you don't know the reason?

In one hand bread, the other a stone

the hunter enters the forest

All are not huntsmen who blow thw huntsman's horn

By the look of this one, you've not got much to fear

(4)

Here I am , I'm very firce and fright'ning

Come to match my skill to yours

Now listen here, listen to me, don't you run away now

I am a friend, I'd really like to play with you

Making noises my little furry friend would make

I'll trick him , then I'll kick him into my sack

You'd better watch out, you'd better watch out

(to "chorus", no lyrics this time)

Bridge 2 

(just like bridge 1)

I've got you, I've got you, you'll never get away

Walking home that night

the sack across my back, the sound of sobbing on my shoulder

when suddenly it stopped

I opened up the sack, all that I had

a pool of bubbles and tears

just a pool of tears

(to "chorus")


B5  B5                    F#5 
       All in all you are a very dying race
A5                    E5 
Placing trust upon a cruel world
                  B5                  
You never had the things you thought you should have had
    F#5 
and you'll not get them now
             A5                                    E5             B5 
and all the while in perfect time your tears are falling on the ground
