Chords:
[Verse 1]Am GThere’s an alligator in the houseE7 AmA toothy grin appears beneath my chairAm GA scaly tail goes sliding out of sightE7 AmNow it’s gone - was it ever there?Am GSomething odd has moved into the houseE7 AmReptilian tracks lead underneath our bedAm GAnd all the cats are tasty, fat, and scaredE7 AmThough I doubt we’ve lost any yet[Chorus]Am G F ESo what’s the big deal? Doesn’t everyoneE7 Am Ehave an alligator somewhere, somehow?Am G F EAnd maybe this one has always been here,E7 Ambut I never noticed it till now.[Verse 2]Am GThere’s an alligator in the houseE7 GJust caught her napping in the living roomAm GShe was dozing on the velvet couchE7 AmAnd the cats were sleeping there tooAm GThere’s an alligator in the houseE7 AmNo one seems to mind except for meAm GWell, at least she doesn’t eat the catsE7 AmI suspect she’d rather eat meAm GThere’s an alligator in the pitE7 Amshe is dancing wildly with the snakesAm Gto win them over to her causeE7 Amshe will do whatever it takesAm GThey think I don’t see their little smilesE7 Amas they plan a reptilian overthrowAm Gbut I hear them talking in my dreamsE7 Amthey will not be sad to see me go![Chorus]Am G F ESo what’s the big deal? Doesn’t everyoneE7 Am Ehave an alligator somewhere, somehow?Am G F EAnd maybe this one has always been here,E7 Ambut I never noticed it till now.[Solo]Am G E7 Am¡Olé! Aligator... Aligator? ¡Ah![Verse 3]Am GI’ve begun to worry ‘bout my toesE7 AmThe alligator seems to think they’re niceAm GI’ve counted all of them a hundred timesE7 AmBut I never got the same answer twiceAm GThere’s an alligator in my bedE7 Amshe is not a master of disguiseAm Gjust a pillow waiting for my headE7 Amsoft and sweet and hungrily she liesAm GThere’s an alligator in the houseE7 AmToday she joined me for a spot of teaAm GShe helped herself to raspberries and creamE7 AmAnd she didn’t leave any for meAm GWell I thought that I had seen it allE7 Ambut this alligator proved me wrongAm Glike a lady as she drank her teaE7 Amshe sang to me this little song:Am G F E“So what’s the big deal, doesn’t everyoneE7 Am Ehave an alligator somewhere somehow?Am G F EI know that you’d miss me if you found me goneE7 Amthough you never noticed until now!”[Chorus]Am G F ESo what’s the big deal?
