In The Reptile Room Lyrics

In the reptile room
Where the baby screams
Weirder creatures loom
Than in all of your dreams

In the reptile room
Hither and thither
Creatures from Khartoum
Slither any-whither

In the reptile room
Anacondas dance
Will they be our doom?
Will we be their bon-bons?

And you wanna know
Wanna know, wanna know
Why I frown?
Well, I'm smiling
I'm just smiling upside-down

In the reptile room
There's an evil man
In a strange costume
Do not ride in his van

In the reptile room
Are pythons at play
In the murky gloom
What a horrible day!
