lyrics inspired by "Scaredy Squirrel makes a Friend" by Melanie Watt

lyrics

G Cmaj7
That's great, it starts with a lemonade,
G Cmaj7
Heinous fish and chest pain - Scaredy Squirrel is so afraid
G
Low on the food chain- don’t wanna be slain
Cmaj7
Lizard in the weeds - bunny with big teeth
G
should he see the fish, yes- no, maybe- no.
Cmaj7
Hiding from the biters throwing off the trail beside us

Bb
spy with your eye a completely safe friend
Am
he’s squeaky clean

G Dsus2 Am
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it
G Dsus2 Am
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it
G Dsus2 Am C
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it- it’s ca-nine

G Cmaj7
what’s in the mirror? furry hungry in a hurry breathing down your neck.
G
Dog chasing round bushes round fountains round circles
Cmaj7
Nothing left to do but Play dead.
G Cmaj7
Uh oh, wow here man this is so weird why won’t he get out of here
G Cmaj7
Point to the name tag, smile, and we’re ok right - right.

Bb Am
drooly dog isn’t gonna bite, and you’re feeling pretty psyched.

G Dsus2 Am
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it
G Dsus2 Am
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it
G Dsus2 Am C (2 measures)
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it- right on time
(I’ll no longer be alone)

G - C - G- C- G- (2 measures each)
F- 4 measures

chorus with shaker or tambourine
G Dsus2 Am
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it
(it’s fine to have some time alone)
G Dsus2 Am
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it
(but I will take a risk & grow)
G Dsus2 Am C
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it- it’s about time
(I’ll no longer be alone)

G
Now all night gonna seek gonna hide
Cmaj7
who will you find? Leonard Bernstein. Who? Never mind
G
you and your mate. 83% safe
Cmaj7
running round together maybe eat a cheesecake
Bb Am
muddy paws, doggy smell and germs but who cares- right? Right.

G Dsus2 Am
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it
(it’s fine to have some time alone)
G Dsus2 Am
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it
(but I will take a risk & grow)
G Dsus2 Am C
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it- I feel fine
(I’ll no longer be alone)

G Dsus2 Am
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it
(it’s fine to have some time alone)
G Dsus2 Am
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it
(but I will take a risk & grow)
G Dsus2 Am C
It's a friend for the squirrel don’t you know it- I feel fine
(I’ll no longer be alone)
