What happens when a ninja with a corduroy suit tries to learn how to be sneaky?

lyrics

Corduroy Ninja G F G
Wears a suit made of corduroy G F G
Can’t sneak up on anyone G F G
So he’s a sad ninja G F G
(2 bars 8th notes on G)
Corduroy Ninja G F G
Had a fight with his master G F G
Refuses to wear something else G F G
Cuz he’s a stubborn ninja G D G

G D Em
He says “My mama made this suit for me”
C D G
And she knows I’m gonna make her proud one day
G D Em
So I’m not gonna switch to cotton or silk
C D G
I can’t afford them anyway

Corduroy Ninja G F G
Trains every day and night G F G
Gives 110% G F G
And almost, almost gets it right G F G

Corduroy Ninja G F G
Practices his stealthy moves G F G
Master just shakes his head G F G
Doesn’t know what else to do G D G

G D Em
He can tip on his toes or crouch down real low
C D G
No matter if he moves swift or slow
G D Em
Corduroy’s more obstinate than anything
C D G
And that suit’s got a song of its own to sing

It goes:
Em Em
Swish, swish, swish swish
Em D
It goes swish, swish, swish swish swish
Em Em
It goes swish, swish, swish swish
Bm F Em
It goes swish, swish, swish.
(X2) end on Em, 2 bars 8ths notes on Em, 2 bars on G

Corduroy Ninja G F G
Won’t quit just cuz something’s hard G F G
Travels all around the world G F G
Asking masters near and far G F G

Someone’s got to know the way G F G
To sneak around in corduroy G F G
He will find that wise man G F G
And his secret he’ll employ G D G

G D Em
He can tip on his toes or crouch down real low
C D G
No matter if he moves swift or slow
G D Em
Corduroy’s more obstinate than anything
C D G
And that suit’s got a song of its own to sing

It goes:
Em Em
Swish, swish, swish swish
Em D
It goes swish, swish, swish swish swish
Em Em
It goes swish, swish, swish swish
Bm F Em
It goes swish, swish, swish.(X2)

Corduroy Ninja G F G
Found a master with finesse G F G
She said we can make this work G F G
Look at how I always dress G F G

Bubblewrap Ninja G F G
Wears a suit made of bubblewrap G F G
She’ll sneak up on anyone G F G
And she says that it’s a snap G D G

(G-D-Em, C-D-G)x2
She says: “My mama made this suit for me”
And she knew that I’d make her proud one day
You must’ve been rich to have corduroy
And you’ll be a great ninja anyway

(G-D-Em, C-D-G)x2
We can tip on our toes or crouch down real low
No matter if we move swift or slow
Corduroy and bubblewrap won’t hold us down
I’ll teach you how to move without a sound

We’ll go: (x3) We’ll go: Bm F E
