it's a cold night for alligators
it's a cold night for dogs
the dogs choke on their barking
when they see alligator persons
in the bog and fog
it's a cold night for alligators
when men turn into them in the night
it's a cold night for alligators
it's a cold night for their might
it's a cold night for alligators
hiding behind trees with moss
forever hear the swamp birds screaming
they forever a loss
it's a cold night for alligators
in the blend
it's a cold night for alligators
a perfect monster has no end
