feelings toward the crocodile lady

Crocodile lady to some seemed shady
I did not know her well, this Victorian lady
She dresses in satin and ribbons and lace
Trying to divert us from her crocodile face

I cannot get around it, it’s the first thing I see
and the teeth which are enormous, in no way wee
Her fashion sense is admirable, her teeth are in align
But I am nervous around her said my neighbor, Line.
