Story of that ole snake in the grass, called The Viper, |
|
I was in my apartment all alone when I heard a ring tingling on the telly-phone, |
|
I said "Who's that at half past three?" And a frightening voice came back at me! |
|
"Sssssss! Ssssssss! I am The Viper! I'll sssee you in seven weekss" |
|
My head was spinning and my knees were weak, |
|
I could hardly stand on my own two feet! |
|
Its next call got me out of bed, |
|
Then how I flipped when that voice said, |
|
"Sssssss! Ssssssss! I am The Viper! I'll see you in seven days" |
|
I shook like Jell-O in a hurricane! |
|
My heart was pounding like a Pullman train. |
|
Again that voice upset me so, |
|
Again I flipped as it said, "Oh, oh!" |
|
"Sssssss! I am The Viper, I'll ssssee you in sssseven ssssecondsss!" |
|
Now I'm certain that my time has come! |
|
I can hear its knock; it's too late to run! |
|
I know that I must let it in! |
|
So wish me luck, 'cause things look grim! |
|
"Ssssssssssss! I am The Viper!" |
|
"Oh, why have you come?" |
|
"I have come to vipe your vindows!" |
