Lyrics
Alligator Boy
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.
Alligator boy, get back in the swamp
Alligator boy, you're looking so scared
Alligator boy, get back in the swamp
Alligator boy, you're looking so scaley
Flicking your tail from side to side with a sick kind of expression
You're looking for an alligator bride
Alligator boy, pretend you're a log
Alligator boy, why'd you eat my dog?
Genetically grafted from all kinds of cells
You're a silly little freak, waiting for the chime of wedding bells
Break it down!
Now listen to what I'm gonna say
And it's too late, stop looking for a mate
It's too late stop looking for a mate (x4)
It's too late, stop looking
It's too late, stop looking for a mate (x2)
Alligator Boy (repeat)
