Song Lyrics

I am a crocodile long and strong
And some little monkeys
Won’t leave me alone
They’ve gotta be careful
They’ve gotta be kind
Otherwise I will bite

I am a crocodile I have a long mouth
Some little monkeys even call it a snout
In my snout
I have teeth so white
But don’t try to touch them
Or I will bite

I am a crocodile I often cry
You see the tears running down my sides
But I’m not sad
I’m just washing my eyes
So don’t try and hug me
Or I will bite
