It's Sunday night and tomorrow is the day
I'll sit down in the circle and Miss Cunningham will say
"Who's brought something special?
Who would like to share?"
I'd rather eat raw spinach than be there!

Show and Tell, I just can't take it
Show and Tell, I'll never make it
Everybody brings
Such interesting things
But not me

Show and Tell, I'm gonna flunk it
Show and Tell, I've always stunk at
Finding something cool
To show the other kids at school

Like Jennifer brought a sea shell
Jessica showed her snake
Justin brought his new little brother
A real live baby, give me a break!

Nicholas had a fossil
And Natalie had a skull
I looked on my shelf and said to myself
"Dull, dull, dull!"
Show and Tell, the others love it
He gets hives, just thinking of it
Anything I choose
Is sure to be a total snooze

Once I brought a marble
"A really pretty marble?"
The kids said, "Look...a marble..."
I thought I was gonna die

Our Show and Tell day victims
But Mondays, now, I've licked them
I stand on two feet and tell a complete
"Lie, lie, lie!"

Like Show and Tell, oops, I forgot mine!
Show and Tell, a hunter shot mine!
Lost it on the way
Is it Show and Tell today?
Ahh gee!

Show and Tell, a freight train hit mine!
Show and Tell, a hippo bit mine!
Had it in my hand
I just don't understand!
Where did it go?
Show and Tell has lit a fire
In the heart of this little liar
I didn't know if I could fly, Miss Cunningham!
Really!
Show and Tell, my brother ate it!
Show and Tell, my dog peed on it?
Show and Tell...

It turns out that I was allergic to it
And I had this rash and I couldn't breathe!
And then my mother said
"Drop that thing before it kills you!"
Honest!
Show and Tell!
