ALLIGATOR BRAIN
BY: Michael Scott Sanem
VERSE 1
You smile and tell me I’m a really nice man,
Someone you know you can trust.
A civilized person. You think I understand
That love is better than lust.
The way you look,
Well, it should be made a crime.
I hang on every word you say.
I see you laughing and I’m hoping for a sign,
That you might like it if I stayed.

CHORUS:
‘Cause I’m thinking with my Alligator Brain.
All these secrets I hide.
I can’t help thinking those reptile thoughts,
Of you and me in the night.
Oh Yeah…

VERSE 2
You like a man who treats a lady with respect.
Lots of room for compromise.
But the truth is I’m a barbarian at best,
Who hides his primitive side.
I see you smilin’ and you look at me that way.
I know I’m running out of time.
My hands are shaking and I know my voice betrays,
Sexual tension locked inside.
REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 3
It’s getting late and it’s time that I go home.
I keep my hands at my sides.
You ask me why I seem so nervous all the time.
If you could only read my mind.
I turn away and I whisper you “goodnight.”
You stop and take me by the hand.
You pull me close, and your lips are touching mine.
And I know what it is you planned!!

CHORUS 2:
“Cause you’ve been thinking with your Alligator brain.
All those secrets you hide.
You can’t help thinking those reptile thoughts,
Of you and me in the night.

Repeat 2nd Chrous

Oh Yeah…….
