Verse 1
D 
Little Peter Lily Daisy
had the doctors in a whirl,
for physically, it
certainly could vex.
They simply could not tell if it were boy or girl,
for the minute they'd decide,
Aaug 
it would quickly change its sex.
D 
This unusual ability,
it plied with great agility.
In the space of just one
second, it would switch.
And because it loved to do it,
and did when no one knew it,
they called it neither he nor she,
Aaug 
but much more simply, Witch.
D 
Its schooling was a bit
coeducational.
After leaving Smith,
it hustled to West Point.
It got honor marks in classes
in both places with both masses,
and in the latter institution,
Aaug 
it nearly wrecked the joint.
D 
Then its father took it well in hand.
My child, he said, you now
must understand.
More of this I'll not allow.
Are you bull or are you cow?
Either in or out you go, it's a
Aaug 
roy    al command.
D 
Poor little Peter Lily Daisy,
what a hell of a problem it had.
It requires an awful bender
to decide a loss of gender.
I'll be back inside a year, told
Aaug 
its dad.
A 
So it packed a bag with
D 
poiret frocks
and some tailored things from Brooks,
lace and frills and sewing,
fishing poles and hooks,
and off it went on a quick world cruise,
the only thing to do,
searching for the answer
Bm 
of the best sex to a woo.
A 
Bm 
D 
When it got to France it appeared in pants,
but the French were bored
Aaug 
with sights like that and fled.
A 
C#m 
D 
So it wandered on to the Parthenon,
but to save its life in Greece
A 
it changed in bed.
D 
In the melee states no
A 
D 
one hesitates.
Em 
It's much too hot it couldn't get a fall.
E 
D 
So to India and there
the fakers tore their hair.
What's a rope trick to an if
that pleases all?
Aaug 
D 
On the boats at night
life was very bright.
First a captain,
E 
then a widow at its door.
D 
But they all showed
such starvation
Bm 
for the things that they could ration,
D 
that they left it less decided
Aaug 
than before.
D 
Oh, the problem grew,
and the months were few.
To itself it almost
A 
E 
thought it might be wed.
E 
D 
But there's something most unthrilling
if one's mate is always willing
and beside that left no place to put his
Aaug 
little head.
D 
Then they docked one day in
B 
D 
San Pedro Bay,
Em 
and Hollywood it went to look about.
Now the finish to poor it is
D 
quite apparent.
It was something Hol
A 
lywood found most inherent.
It was taken up like mad.
A 
Wrote a letter to its dad saying,
nuts to you and your decisions.
I'm okay here in both
divisions.
D 
A 
D 
And it's lived there very happy ever after.
