In the dangerous river 
Hunting for small prey...

Little girl splashes ankle deep
Coffin bay in winter...

Faster in water than land….
On boots he looks grand...

Tick tock
Hook's croc?

Door Creaks
It Speaks

"Snack time
Your Mine"

Eye Peaks
Kid freaks

Night screams
Bad dreams...

Has a baby bear hair?
Well, yes!
Is a baby hare bare?
I guess.
But the funniest thing I ever saw,
Was a crocodile wearing a dress....

There was a man Lute
Who jumped from a pane with a parachute
He played on a flute
While eating a fruit
The crocs said here comes a salad with mute...

My eyes were peeled back with fright
From below the awfully terrible sight
Now a bite from a nit
Hurt a tinny bit 
How many tinny bits will it hurt from croc a bite?...

Its neither a donkey or elephant,
only a croc promising safe passage. 
Across confusion pond to the promised land...

Never to be seen again
the faces of the faithful
and the newly damned....

a skeleton in disguise they call me crocodile
but truly I am an alligator swimming with the sharks
the caiman I left in Barranquilla and wearing my croc
I walk the streets of Brooklyn looking for a tree...

Whatta croc these crocs are, surely quite nasty
Tried making friends but took chunks from my chassis
Well that wasn't nice
Surely didn't entice
Roared loudly, showing eighty-nine teeth quite flashy...

Some words in English can't be mistaken
Like “SNUBBED”, a silly word that leaves people shaken
If you've been “SNUBBED”
Or if you've been clubbed
With a tree stump or bitten by a croc on vacation... ?...

I’m bad luck, wife left, house possessed, now I’m on a plane ride
Engines fail to the ground we sail got to save my hide
Yes! I’m lucky today
One pound a parachute I did pay
Oh bad luck as croc infested waters I glide...

The opossum had an enormously surprised look on his face.
What did he see? A mouse? A croc? A snake? Guessed Grace.
We did not get to find out, for he screamed and ran outside.
Dove into a bramble bush and did his best to hide....

A platypus is living down under
He has a great fear of loud thunder

  When it rains, he takes shelter
  Makes a quick helter-skelter

Beneath a croc' he eyes lightning with wonder

lying alone on river bank
eating life brings joy

Down into the water I go,

    Floating to the croc pit, below…

        What was I thinking,

          I must have been drinking,

             This is why I hate playing G. I. Joe...

I cook a rice, so I am a cook.
I need a cooker, so I can cook.
I didn't learn to cook from a book. 
I only learnt, not to feed a crook. 
I paddled on brook, there was a croc.
I wasn't to look, only to hear them talk.

A fisherman hooked him a croc
  inside it was a ticking clock

The fisherman took out a jar
  of Peter Pan,* said - 'Here you are'

The croc did thank the fisherman
  as they sailed the sea to 'Never-Land'

Old Croc.

What ever happened
to that green eyed Croc?
Who loved his music
Jazz and Rock.
You'd see him there
the party's host
eating peppers and fish
on part baked toast.
Someone shouted
Why that old Croc died
from the love sick blues
he now lives on as 
handbag and shoes....

A family on vacation
At a Disney World hotel
Had their holiday cut short
As paradise turned into hell.

Their 2 year old dragged under
By a croc in a lagoon
And his little life was ended
Way too sadly and too soon.

Seems the signs of warning posted
Weren’t strong enough to heed.
Guess today there isn’t any place
Where safety’s guaranteed....

city fellas dey come to the bush,
the Crocodile barks from his moosh,(mouth)
they think they smart feller, fool ole yella,
more meat says the croc, n goes woosh,
death roll in the donga,
 no more linger longer, 
don't come to his table, 
coroners label, 
says eaten by croc,
 butt n toosh...

thank you Vienna Bombardieri...

CAPTAIN CROOK

The telescope-kid eyed old Captain Crook.
Underneath the waves, tic toc croc, a-shook.

His sword unsheathed, Peter Pan...
A roar of seas hits the fan...

The croc did bequeath him a hapless Hook.

Strong as an Ox,
light as a feather.
Zapped by lightning,
and possessed by weather.

His hair standing up straight,
feet blue as the sea.
Only has four fingers,
and a very crooked knee.

Been seen in graveyards,
dissappears at times.
Talks with a cackle,
and always rhymes.

Scared of a mouse,
in love with a croc.
The people in the lab,
call him "The Doc"....
