Crocs!  by David Greenberg

Crocodile Song

July 19th, 2010

SONG: NEVER SMILE AT A CROCODILE
Never smile at a crocodile!
No, you can’t get friendly with a crocodile;
Don’t be taken in by his welcome grin;
He’s imagining how well you’d fit within his skin!
Never smile at a crocodile!

SONG: CROC ON A LOG
There once was a croc sitting on a log,
Down in the pool he saw a little frog
In jumped the croc, around went the log.
Splash went the water, and away swam the frog!
