In the zoo, in the zoo
I wanna see the snakes
I don´t want to see the lions
Or the gorillas or the apes
I want to see a python

Squeeze somebody tight
Or a boa constrictor
In the middle of the night

Snake hips boy, gonna lay you down
Gonna spoil your fun
Don´t tread on him when he´s around
Don´t tread on him when he´s around
He´ll squeeze you till you fit real good
Snake bite love, snake bite love

In the jungle, in the jungle
I don´t wanna see the trees
I don´t wanna see the flowers
Or the beetles or the bees
I wanna see an anaconda
Coiled in the gloom
Suffocate an alligator

Beneath a tropical moon

Snake hips boy, gonna lay you down
Gonna bite your ass
Don´t tread on him when he´s around
Don´t tread on him when he´s around
Slide over, you´re just like a glove
Snake bite love, snake bite love

In the summer, in the summer
I don´t wanna see the plants
I don´t wanna see the termites
Or the rabbits or the ants
I wanna see a cobra
Inflate his scary hood
And bite the unsuspecting
I think that´s really good

Snake hips boy, gonna lay you down
Gonna lose his skin
Don´t tread on him when he´s around
Don´t tread on him when he´s around
Forked tongue make you feel so good
Snake bite love, snake bite love

Don´t tread on him when he´s around
Don´t tread on him when he´s around
Squeeze you till you fit real good
Snake bite love, snake bite love
