George the Animal Steele
George The Animal Steele
Back in the 80's in the WWF there rose up one out of the rest
A master actor with many children in which to cheer
Brought along his manager Lou Albano to the ring
Like a lone mouse in a heavy maze he was in such a rage
His long hanging tongue was very green like his insides so mean
Looked to fellow wrestlers like a chicken on a string
He often fought with the famed Jimmy Snuka
Chewing the turn buckles like it was his late night snack
Working for him would have given any other guy an instant heart attack
I guess you can say he was wrestling's Wavy Gravy
Although the many years have passed still having a reason to grasp
The real deal was none other then George The Animal Steele
I saw him at my old high school when I was a kid
He rushed into the ring and so often would skid
Touching the many hearts to his loyal fans
Often was quite hairy yet with nothing quite scary
He would grunt & grumble then stare at the crowd
We are still in a shock cause your theme was so loud
Proud memories of our past having so much fun that it would last
Steel is happily retired at the age of 79 but man did he ever shine
