Crocodile Roll

Havin a barbie by the river

With no one else around

A tropical honeymoon

Knockin a Four X down

She was standin in the water

Eatin a pumpkin scone

When CRUNCH! she was gone

They were doin the crocodile roll

The woman and the reptile

Doin the crocodile roll

In the middle of the river

Down came her husband

With a gun and a carving knife

To slaughter every crocodile

for takin his darling wife

[Spoken]

You can't go round eating Queenslanders

You overgrown goannas

I'll turn You all into shoes

CRUNCH!

It was in the news

They were doin the crocodile roll

The husband and the reptile

Doin the crocodile roll

In the middle of the river

Down came his bloodhound

With mangy curly hair

Picked up the scent

Away he went

Arse in the air

Then the dog got carried away

And ran out on a log

When CRUNCH! no more dog

They were doin the crocodile roll

The canine and the reptile

Doin the crocodile roll

In the middle of the river

Down came a wild pig

Rootin all about

The little swine

drank the wine

And really pigged it out

Then the crocodile chased him round

And the little pig said "up yours!"

CRUNCH! into another crocs jaws

They were doin the crocodile roll

The porker and the reptile

Doin the crocodile roll

In the middle of the river

Theres no moral to the story

Just a brand new dance

Grab your partner by the neck

And swing your crocodile pants

Dip your toe in the water

Are you ready for romance?

Swirl your tail around the floor

C'mon take a chance

Now your doin the crocodile roll

Stirin up the mud

Doin the crocodile roll

In the middle of the river

They were doin the crocodile roll

Stirin up the mudcrabs

Doin the crocodile roll

In the middle of the river

CRUNCH!
