ALLIGATOR BLUES

I kinda feel like an alligator
Floatin in the water
Livin Outside of time

I recall the River Liffey
It was the Firehouse SkanK
It must a been on a Wednesday night
Everybody was getting down

CHORUS:
My Head's as clear as a bell
They say the opposites the same
And were just stuck between the two
They're always pointing at each other

Back home, working in the laboratory
These things, somehow they never seem to bore me



You say, "Things are changing all around me!"
Why don'cha go and cry to your momma?

A blind man could even see what yer pullin

Can you see these ghosts a'followin me?
Well, I hardly even knew 'em
But that's a story for another day;
You're not supposed to even see 'em
They come in handy playin poker
And helping me to find the right street

CHORUS

I heard they caught that Santa Claus
Breaking & Entry
Somewhere outside of South Philly
Some bar they called The Feasterville



Who knew he could ever be in danger?
They say it was for my security
Guess they're not taking any chances

"I'd love to stay & chit-chat for awhile,
But, truth told, I've got a train to catch"
Is, like, the story of my life, man
Just like a leaf upon the wind
Just like a drifter in the dark, now
Although I see you everyday
Maybe one of us is just a billboard,
Or else some kinda rare & precious jade

CHORUS
