lyrics

Alligator underground
Won’t you tell me what you’ve found
Riding in the sewer’s flow
Must be secrets that you know.
Down to you the secrets seep
Some are terrible
And some are so, so, so deep
Shielded by eternal smell
Smile so widely, but you never tell.

CHORUS
Alligator underground
When you spin these questions round
Are there answers that astound
Beyond belief?
Are you subtle as the asp?
Does your reach exceed your grasp?
Are there truths you strive to clasp
With tender teeth?
With tender teeth.

Traveling through depths profound
On the Alligator Underground
Carriages all skinned with scales
Half the passengers have bristly tails
Window show us stranger scenes
Brutal truths are hard to tell
From fevered daydreams
Racing through the realm below
Where the roots of our experience grow
CHORUS

Alligator underground
Won’t you tell me what you’ve found?
Alligator, alligator,
Alligator underground
CHORUS
