about

recorded on a field past the end of the world
anyone seen cheeto lately?

lyrics

I expected skeletons in your closet
Instead i got alligators in your basement
The electrician won’t flip the breaker
Because your pets are found of biting ankles
And the big ones name is Cheeto
You tell me he’s sweeter than any family dog
But i’m thinking of the scene from Joe Dirt
And i’m wondering what could go wrong

So ooohohhoohohohh alligator
Won’t you tell me where my family is
and oooohhhhhhhh alligator won’t you tell me bout my past
And oh Cheeto please don’t nibble on my upper arm
I kinda can’t live without that

I asked you how’d you get these gators down here
You told me a man is entitled to his secrets
I asked you if owning alligators was even allowed
You told me if they don’t catch you anything is legal
And I’m thinking of the scene from Joe Dirt
Because I know you both don’t know the rules

So ooohohhoohohohh alligator
Won’t you tell me where my family is
and oooohhhhhhhh alligator won’t you tell me bout my past
And oh Cheeto please don’t nibble on my upper arm
I kinda can’t live without that

I guess you were right, your gators are pretty sweet
I’m kinda missing Cheeto and all his sharp sharp teeth
Sure he took some fingers but he also stole my heart
And I’m thinking of the scene from Joe Dirt cuz me and Cheeto have a bond

So ooohohhoohohohh alligator
I know right where my family is!!
And oooohhhhhhhh alligator
Who cares about the past when I know what my future could be
And oh cheeto feel free to nibble on my heart
I don’t need that
