The real story of Pinocchio

There's a story they tell of a queer kind of toy
That has only one wish just to be a real boy
But I'll tell you sonny that there's more to the story
There's the tale of how Pinocchio rose to great glory

Yes it's true that deep down that his ultimate dream
Was to be a cute boy and to marry a queen
But before he could get there he knew in his head
That he'd need some money or he might go dead

So 'nocchio thought and he thought of a scheme
So great and impressive that he'd get the queen
To say "My my my! You're impressive indeed!
That you understand the importance of greed!"

'Cause before 'nocchio dreamt for his dream to come true
He had one or two other things he thought to do
"I think it'd be great to get rich really quick"
Thought `nocchio, "yes well I just need a trick"

And the trick that he found was as close as his nose
Because everyone knows how his nose grows and grows
That a lie and a lie and another would surely make him
The best source for wood for a house or a gym

So that's what he did yeah he lied and he lied
And oh how much wood that he daily supplied
And nobody no no one could deter his vim
'til one day all wood in the world came from him

And the money he made each and every day
Flowed right right down the road to the head of the bay
He had gorgeous clothes and a sparkling ring
He was really decked out and so fit to be king

And when he was set he transformed to a boy
And searched out the queen (she's the source of his joy)
And they married - They did! - for her heart he had won
And that is how `nocchio came to rule the kingdom
