THE ALLIGATOR WALTZ (2003)
The Alligator Waltz
La-la-la-la-hmmmmmmm
The Alligator Waltz
La-la-la-la-hmmmmmmm
They come in groups of two
Promising that they won't fight
They hoochy-coochy-coochy-coo
Trying so hard not to bite
It's tail to tail and nose to nose
Oh, they love to hold each other close
The Alligator Waltz
La-la-la-la-hmmmmmmm
The Alligator Waltz
La-la-la-la-hmmmmmmm
At the stroke of midnight
They start swaying to and fro
And by the swampy green moonlight
You should see them dance the tango
Sliding slowly and holding near
Whispering romantic things in the ear
It's the Alligator Waltz
La-la-la-la-hmmmmmmm
The Alligator Waltz
La-la-la-la-hmmmmmmm
The Alligator Waltz
Is quite the formal do
It's tux and tails and fancy gowns
And alligator shoes
By the vine and cicada bug
Boy, can they ever cut the rug
The Alligator Waltz
La-la-la-la-hmmmmmmm
The Alligator Waltz
La-la-la-la-hmmmmmmm
The Alligator Waltz
Is by invitation only
And I'm afraid that you won't find
An alligator who is lonely
But if you hear on the swampy breeze
A fast fox trot and a one, two, three
It's the Alligator Waltz
La-la-la-la-hmmmmmmm
The Alligator Waltz
You can hear them humming in the moonlight
To the Alligator Waltz
I'll bet you didn't know that an alligator could hum, now did ya?
