[00:18.50]He swallered a frog 
[00:21.67]And hollered yum-yum
[00:24.98]He slid down the hillside 
[00:28.17]And darted his tongue
[00:31.24]He entered the garden 
[00:34.26]On this bright moonlight night
[00:37.69]Then he stopped in his tracks, 
[00:40.20]It was love at first sight
[00:44.76]
[00:45.40](he said) My skin is black, 
[00:49.04]And your skin is green
[00:52.33]You dwell in a garden, 
[00:55.55]I live by a stream
[00:58.07]Although I'm short and stocky 
[01:02.17]And you're long and lean
[01:05.70]I've got a crush on you
[01:09.88]Then he squeezed her tighter 
[01:11.88]And tighter and tighter
[01:15.69]I've got a crush on you
[01:19.48]
[01:21.82]He said I'm a king snake, 
[01:25.04]And you'll be my queen
[01:28.19]With a butler and serpents, 
[01:31.48]And your own private stream
[01:34.85]If you refuse me 
[01:37.98]It would be such a shame
[01:40.95]'Cause I'm so tired of doing
[01:45.06]My own fang
[01:47.16]Then he squeezed her tighter
[01:49.28]To excite her and delight her
[01:52.85]Oh I've got a crush on you
[01:58.61](and I'll be back tomorrow)
[02:01.16]
[02:02.36]Next day when he got there, 
[02:05.69]A two-legged man
[02:08.93]Was holding sweet green thing 
[02:12.05]In his big human hand
[02:15.23]A long jet of water shot out of her nose
[02:21.64]Ol' king snake had fallen in love with a hose
[02:30.92]
[02:32.37](he said) My skin is black,
[02:36.15]And your skin is green
[02:39.40]You dwell in a garden, 
[02:42.62]I live by a stream
[02:45.01]Although you're made of plastic 
[02:49.14]I think you're fantastic
[02:52.50]And I've got a crush on you.
[02:57.56]But I don't think it's gonna work out
