Alligator In The House

There's an alligator in the house
 A toothy grin appears beneath my chair
 A scaly tail goes sliding out of sight
 Now it's gone - was it ever there?
 Something odd has moved into the house
 Reptilian tracks lead underneath the bed
 And all the cats are tasty, fat, and scared
 Though I doubt we've lost any yet
 So what's the big deal?
 Doesn't everyone
 Have an alligator somewhere, somehow?
 And maybe this one has always been here,
 But I never noticed it till now.
 There's an alligator in the house
 Just caught her napping in the living room
 She was dozing on the velvet couch
 And the cats were sleeping there too
 There's an alligator in the house
 No one seems to mind except for me
 Well, at least she doesn't eat the cats
 I suspect she'd rather eat me
 There's an alligator in the pit
 she is dancing wildly with the snakes
 to win them over to her cause
 she will do whatever it takes
 They think I don't see their little smiles
 as they plan a reptilian overthrow
 but I hear them talking in my dreams
 they will not be sad to see me go!
 So what's the big deal?
 Doesn't everyone
 Have an alligator somewhere, somehow?
 And maybe this one has always been here,
 But I never noticed it till now.
 Ole
 Alligator
 ALLIGATOR?
 I've begun to worry 'bout my toes
 The alligator seems to think they're nice
 I've counted all of them a hundred times
 But I never got the same answer twice
 There's an alligator in my bed
 she is not a master of disguise
 just a pillow waiting for my head
 soft and sweet and hungrily she lies
 There's an alligator in the house
 Today she joined me for a spot of tea
 She helped herself to raspberries and cream
 And she didn't leave any for me
 Well I thought that I had seen it all
 but this alligator proved me wrong
 like a lady as she drank her tea
 she sang to me this little song:
 "So what's the big deal,
 doesn't everyone
 have an alligator somewhere somehow?
 I know you'd miss me if I went away
 though you never noticed until now!"
 So what's the big deal?
 Doesn't everyone
 Have an alligator somewhere, somehow?
 And maybe this one has always been here,
 But I never noticed it till now.
