Billy and his family went on a holiday

They went down to florida to lagh and dance and play

Billy went in for a swim he didn't see the harm

But when he came out again he was short an arm



Chorus

Cause Rippy the gator went chomp, chomp, chomp

Rippy the gator went chomp, chomp, chomp

Passing the time by ending childrens lives

Down in the bottom of the swamp, swamp, swamp



Billy and father went out to play some catch

But Billy missed the pass because his arm was unattached

The ball flew passed his shoulder and rolled into the swamp

He went wading after it his leg became a stump



Chorus



Billy and his father joined a three-legged race

They were tearring up the field no one could keep the pace

But Billy slipped and did a flip and landed in the muck

He was runnning out of limbs and also out of luck



Chorus



Billy was all dirty he really had to wash

But he coudn't use a towel cause his limbs had been knawed off

He went into the water to get up clean and bright

But when his bath was finished he was only half his height



Chorus



Billy's father rolled his wheelchair up upon a hill

He wanted to put bill where he would not get killed

But he left him on a slope and into the swamp he rolled

They dragged his head but there was nothing left below



Chorus



Passing the time by ending childrens liiives

Down in the bottom of the swamp (down in the swamp)
