Let's see, uh, it was on an island
And there was this snake
And the snake had legs
And he could walk all around the island

Yes, that's true, a snake with legs
And the man and the woman were on the island too
And they were not very smart
But they were happy as clams, yes

Let's see, uh then one evening
The snake was walking about in the garden
And he was talking to himself
And he saw the woman, and they started to talk

And they became friends, very good friends
And the woman liked the snake very much
Because when he talked, he made little noises with his tongue
And his long tongue was lightly licking about his lips

Like there was a fire inside his mouth
And the flame would come dancing out of his mouth
And this woman liked this very much
And after that, she was bored with the man

Because no matter what happened
He was always as happy as a clam
What did the snake say? Yes! What was he saying?
Okay, I will tell you

The snake told her things about the world
He told her about the time
When there was a big typhoon on the island
And all the sharks came out of the water, yes

They came out of the water
And they walked right into your house
With their big white teeth
And the woman heard these things and she was in love

And the man came out and said, 'We have to go now'
And the woman did not want to go
Because she was a hothead
Because she was a woman in love

Anyway, we got into their boat and left the island
But they never stayed anywhere very long
Because the woman was restless, she was a hothead
She was a woman in love

And this is not a story people tell
It is something I know myself
And when I do my job, I am thinking about these things
Because when I do my job, that is what I think about
