The Snake Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
He swallered a frog and hollered yum yum
He slid down the hillside and darted his tongue
He entered the garden on this bright moonlight night
Then he stopped in his tracks it was love at first
sight
He said my skin is black and your skin is green
You dwell in a garden I live by a stream
Although I'm short and stocky and your long and green
I've got a crush on you And he squeezed her tighter
and tighter and tighter
He said I'm a king snake and you'll be my queen
With a butler and serpents in your own private stream
And if you refuse me it would be such a shame
Cause' I'm so tired of doin' my own fang
And he squeezed her tighter to excite her and
deliteher
I've got a crush on you
And I'll be back tommorow
Next day when he got there
A two-legged man was holdin' sweet green thang in his
big human hand
A long jet of water shot out of her nose
Oh king snake had fallen in love with a hose
He said my skin is black and your skin is green
You dwell in a garden I live by a stream
Although you're made of plastic I think you're
fantastic
I've got a crush on you
And he squeezed her tighter to excite her and delight
her
I've got a crush on you
But I don't think it's gonna work out
