Verse 1:

Sir hand

Or is it ma'am

I fell out of my right place again

And you

Considered me

And now I'm where a snail has to be

Pre Chorus:

I want to thank you for putting me back in my snail shell

Chorus:

Was it something you would do for anybody?

Was it what you'd only do for me?

I need to know because you see

I want to thank you for putting me back in my snail shell

Verse 2:

Friend

Look what you gave

And how can you ever be repaid?

How may I give you a hand

From the position at your feet where I stand?

Pre Chorus:

So let me thank you for putting me back in my snail shell

I'd like to thank you for putting me back in my snail shell

Chorus:

Was it something you would do for anybody?

Was it what you'd only do for me?

I need to know because you see

I want to thank you for putting me back in my snail shell

Bridge:

Snail Shell

Thank you

Snail Shell

Thank you

Chorus:

Was it something you would do for anybody?

Was it what you'd only do for me?

Or was it something where you acted when you saw the need

And knew that there would be a way the act could be repaid

And so it may, but for today

I want to thank you for putting me back in my snail shell
