Lyrics
Went down to the river for a while
Went down to the river for an hour
Out of them riverbanks
Came a creature unknown
Aw, it was a lizard with a briefcase throwing stones
Went down to the station for a while
Went down to the station for an hour
Out of that train came
Old skin and bones
Aw, it was a lizard with a briefcase throwing stones
Went down to the city for a while
Went down to the city for an hour
Out of them streets came
On his telephone
Aw, it was a lizard with a briefcase throwing stones
He was scaley and green if you know what I mean
Went down to the theater for a while
Went down to the theater for an hour
Out of them screens came
All the features were shown
Aw, it was a lizard with a briefcase throwing stones
It was a lizard with a briefcase, briefcase throwing
Lizard with a briefcase, briefcase throwing
Lizard with a briefcase, briefcase throwing stones
