"THE ALLIGATOR" lyrics

"THE ALLIGATOR"

Got a ticker rolling
In my sub-subconscious
Win or lose
Give me the bad news
As the storm rolls in
I go out driving
And it crossed my mind
What a fine, fine time to be alive

Everyone's shaking
But I'm not afraid (yeah)
Cage the disease
Not the alligator

Heard an old billionaire
Say it just isn't fair
Trade it all in, and start over again
In his twenties
And they taught me to swim
In a pool of gasoline
So what'd you expect? I was always meant
To run on empty

Cracks in the ground
Palm trees burn down
But I'm only at peace
In the chaos

Cage the disease
Cage the disease
Not the alligator
Cage the disease
Cage the disease
Not the alligator

(Cage the disease)
(Cage the disease)
(Cage the disease)
(Cage the disease)
(Cage the disease)
(Cage the disease)

Cracks in the ground
Palm trees burn down
But I'm only at peace
In the chaos
