Lyrics

Alligator (Choir Version)

It's a fear. It is near. The shape becomes ever clear.
It bares teeth extra sharp that'll cut you in the heart.
It attacks really quick, try and fight it with a stick.
There's no use, give it up, this is life and this is love.

You are my alligator.
You are my alligator
