Snip Snip

Conrad's mother said Conrad dear
I must go out and leave you here
But mind now, Conrad, what I say
Don't suck your thumbs while I'm away

Snip! snip
That great tall tailor, he always comes
For naughty boys who suck their thumbs
And ere they wonder what he's about
He's got his great long scissors out

Snip snip the scissors go
And Conrad cries out oh!
Snip snip they go so fast
And Conrad's thumbs are off at last

Well,mama had scarcely turned her back
When the thumbs were in , alack! alack!
The door burst open and in he ran
That great long legged scissor man

Snip snip the scissors go
And Conrad cries out oh!
Snip snip they go so fast
And Conrad's thumbs are off at last

Well, mama comes home and there Conrad stands
And he looks quite sad as he shows his hands
Ha! Ha! said mama, I knew he'd come
For naughty little suck-a-thumb

CHORUS and Conrad breathes his last
CHORUS and Conrad bleeds to death at last
