Gimme A Smile (The Pumpkin Song)

Lyrics

A chubby little pumpkin
 Sat in a patch
 Waitin' breathlessly
 To see just who was gonna snatch him
 He pumped himself up
 He kept himself clean
 'Cause it was just a few days
 Until Halloween
 A pretty little cutie
 In a lavender dress
 Saw our boy and picked him up
 Then she began to caress him
 She hugged him and she squeezed
 'Til they were cheek to cheek
 She almost dropped him on his bottom
 When he started to speak
 "Could I make a small suggestion
 Like to ask you just in case
 You would remember this request
 When you're designing my face?", He said
 Please, please, please, please
 Gimme a smile
 I'm only gonna be here
 For the littlest while
 Don't wanna be the jack o' lantern
 Scarin' away every candy-lovin' kid
 Who's trick-or-treating today
 No one wants a friend
 Who only can frown
 Turn up the ends of my mouth
 Instead of turnin' 'em down
 Lookin' like a monster really isn't my style
 So please make me pretty, please
 Gimme a smile
 He was a little bit worried
 A little perplexed
 'Cause all his other orange friends
 Were actin' tougher than the next guy
 One put on a grimace
 One wore a scowl
 One even wore a sheet and then
 Began to howl
 He was oh so happy
 To be the little girl's choice
 He giggled and he stammered
 In his shy little voice
 Then he whispered to her sweetly
 In their cozy embrace
 "I want a pretty smile
 Just like the one on your face"
 I'm only making one appearance
 In this fleeting pumpkin life
 Could you grant my one desire
 When you carve me with that knife?
 Please, please, please, please
 Gimme a smile
 I'm only gonna be here
 For the littlest while
 Don't wanna be the jack o' lantern
 Scarin' away every candy-lovin' kid
 Who's trick-or-treating today
 I'd be ever so grateful
 If you give me a grin
 Let all the happy little children
 See the brightness within
 Don't gimme no fangs
 Like that mean crocodile
 Please make me pretty, please
 Gimme me a smile
 ♪
 Please, please
 Gimme a smile
 I'm only gonna be here
 For the littlest while
 I don't wanna be the jack o' lantern
 Scarin' away every candy-lovin' kid
 Who's trick-or-treating today
 Gimme a great big grin
 I'll be the happiest guy
 The evening after Halloween
 I'll be the tastiest pie
 Well if I gotta go
 Let me be goin' in style
 Oh please, please, pretty please
 Gimme a smile
 C'mon, gimme a smile
