you back to their flat

LAUGHTER
Hang on a minute
while I slip into a Gossamer
trench coat.
LAUGHTER
I've tried over the years
to become a tadpole expert,
actually.
I've studied the tadpole
and attempted to learn everything about
them.
There isn't very much to learn,
actually. the main thing to learn
is that there are two kinds
of tadpoles.
There's the ones that turn into the frogs
and the ones that turn into the toads.
I call them the toadpole
and the frogpole.
Now the only way to
distinguish between the two
is that the toadpole tends
tend to turn into a frog.
But there's no way that I've
found
of predicting this.
Of course, tadpoles
are lovely little creatures,
aren't they? They're so good -natured,
and they have such lovely little smiles.
It's very hard to see their little smiles,
actually,
because they're black all over,
F#
and they have little black mouths.
G
D
And the insides of their mouth
So when they smile,
it's just a little black blob.
You can't really tell when
they're smiling.
They make lovely pets,
you know, tadpole, very faithful.
The only trouble is as soon as you get
to know them properly
and they start doing tricks and things
and they can answer to their name,
they turn into horrible toads and frogs.
I can't abide toads and frogs.

and laying their slime all over the place.

little tadpoles

by my bedside

when I was studying to be a
Lovely little things squiggling about.
G
That was until I had the tragedy.
I had a terrible tragedy.
I had three lovely little tadpoles
in my jar.
G
Deirdre, Margaret and Beryl.
They're lovely little things
and I switched the light out
last thing at night
and I must have had a very violent
dream
about Gossamer Trenchcoats
or something.
Because when I woke up in the morning,
there they were,
strewn all over my pillow,
all dried up like three little raisins.
I tried to revive them
by throwing water all over them,
but it was too late.
They just went into soggy little raisins.
Horrible,
soggy little black raisins.
Tragic business.
Deirdre was just getting her first legs too.
But I suppose it was all for the best.
They'd only have turned
into ghastly old toads
and frogs
in the end and left me.
It's rather a thankless life
being a tadpole expert.
