Thread the waterhead watch it squirm
Now its lessons must be learned
Take a needle weave it in
It must repent it's a sin
(For all its sins)

Thread the waterhead watch it squirm
Now its lessons must be learned
Take a needle weave it in
(Weave it right in)
It must repent for all its sins

Throw her out
I said, Get the waterhead out
Throw the waterhead away
Throw her out!

Tattle Tale

Written in 1977 by Skafish
This is the second version of this composition to be released,
with the first included on the April 1, 2008 Skafish album,
What's This? 1976-1979.

Hey little tattle tale
You tell on me
Tattle tale never let me be
The teacher she says she cares
That's why she calls my parents on the phone
And warns them beware
Push me and my books down the stairs
I run to the nurse for care and a band aid
The nurse she is laughing hah-hah-hah
She's down on me

They didn't give me therapy
Just lots of slapping and pushing around
Therapy was later when they lost hope
In washing out my mouth with soap

I'd love to play
I have no friends today
And it feels real bad - oh!
That I am not ok
I ran home today and hid in the garage
All day in the garage
My mother found me
She asks, Why is the nurse down on me?

I'm leaving
I'm going
Farewell bye-bye

The truant officer was out and looking all around for me
I don't care I'm gonna leave
I said, Hey little tattle tale
I said, Hey why do you put me down?
I said, Hey little tattle tale you tell on me
I said, Hey little tale put me down

I said nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Tattle tale-tattle tale
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Put you put me down today
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
I have no friends today
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
