Tom the Toad (and friends)

[Tune: O, Tannenbaum]

Oh, Tom the toad, oh Tom the toad, why are you lying in the road? [Repeat]
You did not see the truck ahead, and now your looking oh so dead.
Oh, Tom the toad, oh Tom the toad, so sad you're lying in the road?

Oh, Tom the toad, oh Tom the toad, why did you jump out in the road? [Repeat]
You were so big and green and fat, but now you're small and red and flat.
Oh, Tom the toad, oh Tom the toad, why did you jump out in the road?

Oh, Tom the toad, oh Tom the toad, why did you jump out in the road? [Repeat]
You were alive but now you're dead, your face looks like a tire tread.
Oh, Tom the toad, oh Tom the toad, why did you jump out in the road?

Oh, Tom the toad, oh Tom the toad, why are you lying in the road? [Repeat]
You used to hop and jump about, and now your guts are spilling out.
Oh, Tom the toad, oh Tom the toad, so sad you're lying in the road?

Oh, Jake the snake, oh Jake the snake, why are you belly-up in the lake? [Repeat]
You did not see that motor boat, propeller got you by the throat.
Oh, Jake the snake, oh Jake the snake, so sad you swam out in the lake?

Oh, Mat the cat, oh Mat the cat, why is your tail so crooked like that? [Repeat]
You caught it in the vacuum machine [Eyoww!], and now your acting awfully mean.
Oh, Mat the cat, oh Mat the cat, that's why your tail is crooked like that.
