A Tragic Love Affiar

Well I'll be a monkeys uncle 
If that old King Kong 
And the lizard Godzilla
Did not one day fall in love 

It was the wildest looking of all affairs  
One of the strangest scenes 
With all of that burly bristley hair 
Mixed with all that slimy green 

They both met on the corner 
In The Big Apple downtown 
Amid all the screaming heebie jeebies
Of people running around 

Between the two of course you knew 
It would be love at first sight 
And what love story isn't tragic 
Without a few squished passersby...
