The raccoons and the possums Gathered growing anxious Started singing songs about the Creature among us
The swamps and the marshes Will all be overrun with the salt Of the snakes he's the god of Getting drunk
He's the alligator man
Well whiskey in his hand
Oh when the trumpets sound We'll be dancin' all around with Our bellies in the sand.
He'll eat you alive
He likes to Start with the face
Always such a beautiful face
Wearing human skin
Under the blood moon
Under the blood moon
Every man woman child lazy Rivers down the Nile in their Sunday shoes
Under the blood moon
Under the blood moon
All the creatures and the vermin In the cellar drinking bourbon in Their hazmat suits
When the eye of the blood moon Looks down
On you and I
I'll be drug below the surface While you float towards the sky
When the eye looks down on You and I look down on you
When the eye looks down on you And I look down on you and I
Under the blood red moon
Under the blood moon
Every man woman child lazy Rivers down the Nile in they Sunday shoes
Drug below so deep
Wish that I could scream oh God
I can feel the teeth
Tearing into me
Looking up to see
The surface disappearing
Sinking so quickly
Wish that I could breathe oh God
My mouth opens to breathe
So involuntarily
Red is all I see
As life seeps out of me
Looking up to see
The surface disappearing
He resurfaces
Now the eye of the blood moon looked down
On you and I
I was drug below the surface while you float towards the sky
Under the blood moon
