I need to bite
Sweet krokodil, dil, dil, dil
Never had gums for much
Never had fun
Never was much for lives
But you're mine, by the sharp
Of my fucking teeth!
I need to bite
Sweet krokodil, dil, dil, dil
I need to bite
Sweet krokodil, dil, dil, dil
Shut up so I can sink
Damn nerves, damn everything
Never was much for love
But you're mine, by the shine
Of my bloody teeth!
I need to bite
Sweet krokodil, dil, dil, dil
I need to bite
Sweet krokodil, dil, dil, dil
And when it starts to sting
Don't worry, gotta be clean
Never was much for sing
But you're mine, by the sharp
Of my fucking teeth!
I need to bite
Sweet krokodil, dil, dil, dil
I need to bite
Sweet krokodil, dil, dil, dil
Oh
