The Swamp Monster Lyrics by Sweat Like An Ape!

Spells That Rhyme

0

Half elephant and half snake
The swamp monster will devour you before you wake
It doesn't matter if you’re fat or thin
He will swallow you whole; flesh, bones and skin
If you happened to picnic in front of his cave
Or if in his swamp you decided to bathe
One would have to admit that you're a pretty big fool
Because you just chose to drown in a pool of monster drool
Sharpen your knives
Lock up your wives
The swamp monster is here
Run for your lives
The swamp monster killed my neighbour and his son
Apparently they never even got to run
We heard them scream, we heard them shriek
Sounds that would make the stomach of a grown monster weak
No man, no woman has ever lived to tell
Whether their meeting with the swamp monster went well
He might just honour you with a smile full of grace
Before tearing out your lungs and ripping of your face
Sharpen your knives
Lock up your wives
The swamp monster is here
Run for your lives
At night I'll think of him and get the frights
I’ll sneak into my mother's bed or turn on all the lights
I even dreamt that he came to our house
He slipped through the front door, silent as a mouse
He ate my mother
He ate my father
He ate my sisters
He ate my brothers
And sat at the kitchen table staring at me
And sat at the kitchen table smiling at me
And sat at the kitchen table staring at me
And sat at the kitchen table smiling at me
Sharpen your knives
Lock up your wives
The swamp monster is here
Run for your lives
Half elephant and half snake
The swamp monster will devour you before you wake
