Verse
D                                      A
We bought a lot of things to keep you warm and dry
        D                           A
And a funny old crib on which the paint won't dry
 D               G
I bought you a pair of shoes
 D                            G
A trumpet you can blow and a book of rules
    D                                A
On what to say to people when they pick on you
Cos if you stay with us you're gonna be pretty kookie too

Verse
 
D                             A
And if you ever have to go to school
        D                        A
Remember how they messed up this old fool
 D                           G
Don't pick fights with the bullies or the cads
 D                                   G
Cos I'm not much cop at punching other people's dads
    D                            A
And if the homework brings you down
Then we'll throw it on the fire
And take the car downtown
