G C
In San Francisco town there lived a whale
F
She ate pork chops by the pail
C Am
By the pill-box, by the suitcase,
G C
By the bathtub, by the schooner
G C
Her name is Sara and she's a peach
F
But you can't leave food within her reach
C Am
Nor nurse-maids, nor Airedales,
G C
Nor chocolate ice cream sodas.
G C
She eats a lot but when she smiles
F
You can see her teeth for miles and miles,
C Am
And her adenoids, and her spare ribs,
G C
And things too fierce to mention.
G C
So what can you do in a case like that?
F
What can you do except sit on your hat,
C Am
Or your toothbrush, or your grandmother,
G C
Or anything else that's helpless.
