If I Were a Worm

Lyrics, Mark Weltner (melody: If I Had a Hammer)

If I were a worm, worm,
I’d wiggle and squirm, squirm
I’d stretch like a rubber band
All over this land

I’d eat up french fries; I’d eat up apple pies,
I’d eat greens and lima beans
All over this land

If I were a worm, worm,
I’d wiggle and squirm, squirm
I’d stretch like a rubber band
All over this land

I’d eat up clementines, I’d eat up dandelions,
I’d eat leaves and black-eyed peas
All over this land

Well I’m not a worm, worm,
But I wiggle and squirm, squirm
And stretch like a rubber band
All over this land

I eat up french fries; I eat up apple pies,
I eat greens and lima beans
clementines and dandelions,
I eat leaves and black-eyed peas
All over this land

(actually, I don’t eat dandelions… or leaves)
