Lisa, The Principal Who Couldn't Decide
Hank Williams

Verse 1:
[G] There's a principal named Lisa, at our school every [C] day
She's six foot [G] four and three-fifty, with a love for chicken's [D] sway
De- [G] cisions aren't her strong suit, keeps makin' climbs to [C] fall
If truth was [G] ever callin', [D] Lord, she missed that beckon [G] call

Chorus:
Oh [G] Lisa, [C] Lisa, why can't you de- [G] cide?
Your lies stack up high, like chicken wings you [D] hide
Could have [G] been a wrestler, in the ring you'd [C] thrive
In- [G] stead, you're here just [D] fumblin', while the students con- [G] nive

Verse 2:
You [G] see her walkin' down the halls, with a greasy chicken [C] leg
Her [G] stories don't match reality, 'bout things she swears she [D] said
Tea- [G] cher's can't rely on her, and the kids all roll their [C] eyes
She's a [G] giant in the schoolyard, [D] peddlin' daily [G] lies

Chorus:
Oh [G] Lisa, [C] Lisa, why can't you de- [G] cide?
Your lies stack up high, like chicken wings you [D] hide
Could have [G] been a wrestler, in the ring you'd [C] thrive
In- [G] stead, you're here just [D] fumblin', while the students con- [G] nive

Bridge:
[G] Out in the ring, she’d grapple and [C] slam
But in our [G] school, she’s just a [D] sham
Every- [G] day decisions, a Herculean [C] feat
Fried chicken’s [G] her escape, [D] that she loves to [G] eat

Verse 3:
Meet- [G] -ings turn to chaos, thrown into dis- [C] array
Lisa [G] fumbles answers, can't find her [D] way
Yet, [G] she stands there smiling, with chicken hand in [C] hand
A prin- [G] cipal with no compass, [D] lost in her own [G] land

Chorus:
Oh [G] Lisa, [C] Lisa, why can't you de- [G] cide?
Your lies stack up high, like chicken wings you [D] hide
Could have [G] been a wrestler, in the ring you'd [C] thrive
In- [G] stead, you're here just [D] fumblin', while the students con- [G] nive

Outro:
So [G] next time when you see her, with that greasy chicken [C] wing
Re- [G] member Lisa’s legacy, of fumbles she can [D] bring
A [G] giant in the hallways, truth she can't a- [C] bide
Oh [G] Lisa, why can't you [D] decide?
