Lyrics

THE ALLIGATOR MAN LOVES THE MONKEY GIRL
(Eleni Kelakos)
Copyright  2003 Leg E Cat Music, ASCAP

Born a bearded baby, hair from head to toe,
Dubbed "The Monkey Girl" and then,
Sold off to the circus show.
Grew up quite the lady, for a fuzzy girl,
Caught the eye of the 'gator man
Who loved the way her whiskers curled.

And the Alligator Man, well he loves the Monkey Girl.
Yes, the Alligator man loves his bearded Monkey Girl.

Made a striking couple, dressed up, on the town,
Him with skin like a scaly snake,
Her with her beard and gown.
Famous at the sideshow, more so when they wed--
"See the strangest man and wife!"
This is what the papers said.

And the Alligator Man, well he loves the Monkey Girl.
Yes, the Alligator man loves his bearded Monkey Girl.

Bought a bungalow in Pensacola,
Bar-B-Q and hammock in the yard.
Sipping on some rum and coca cola,
Toasting to the hanging moon and stars.

"If I shave my whiskers, chest and forearms too,
Blonde my hair and rouge my cheeks,
Honey what would you do?"
"Looks are overrated," he says in reply,
"40 years we're man and wife-
You've got to love the heart inside."

And the Alligator Man, well he loves the Monkey Girl.
Yes, the Alligator man loves his bearded Monkey Girl.
