Chords
G E7 A7 D7
Spring is here, a-suh-puh-ring is here.
G E7 A7 D7
Life is skittles and life is beer.
G D7 G D7 G
I think the loveliest time of the year is the
spring.
E7 A7 D7
I do, Dont you? Course you do.
Am G
But theres one thing that makes spring complete for me,
A7 D D7
And makes every Sunday a treat for me.
G
All the world seems in tune
On a spring afternoon,
D7
When were poisoning pigeons in the park.
Am
Every Sunday youll see
My sweetheart and me,
D7 G
As we poison the pigeons in the park.
C G
When they see us coming, the birdies all try anhide,
A7 D7
But they still go for peanuts when coated with cyanide.
G
The suns shining bright,
Everything seems all right,
A7 D7 G
When were poisoning pigeons in the park.
D7
Weve gained notoriety,
G
And caused much anxiety
D7
In the Audubon Society
G
With our games.
E7
They call it impiety,
And lack of propriety,
And quite a variety
A
Of unpleasant names.
A7 D
But its not against any religion
A7 D7
To want to dispose of a pigeon.
D7 G
So if Sunday youre free,
Why dont you come with me,
D7
And well poison the pigeons in the park.
Am
And maybe well do
In a squirrel or two,
D7 G
While were poisoning pigeons in the park.
C G
Well murder them all amid laughter and merriment,
A7 D7
Ex cept for the few we take home to experiment.
G
My pulse will be quikenin
With each drop of strychnine
A7 D7
We feed to a pigeon.
A7 D7
It just takes a smidgen!
A7 D7 G D7 G
To poison a pigeon in the park.
