Riki Tiki Tavi (Alternate Version) Lyrics

Laboratory synthetic stimuli
Oh la la la la la da
La la la la la da
La la la do do
Oh na na da

Well, better get into what you got to get into
And youd better get into it now, no slacking please
For United Nations ain't really united
And the organisations ain't really organised

Cause your Riki tiki tavi mongoose at your door no more no more
Riki tiki tavi mongoose at your door
He won't be coming around for to kill your snakes no more, my love
Oh your Riki tiki tavi mongoose at your door no more

Everybody who saw the Jungle Book knows that
Riki tiki tavi is a mongoose who kills snakes
But when I was a young man I was led to believe
There were organisations to kill my snakes for me
I was told i.e. the Church, i.e. the Government, i.e. School
But as I got a little older I learned I had to kill my snakes myself

Oh laboratory

Well, the people walking around they dont know what theyre doing
They bin lost so long, they dont know what theyre looking for
Well, I know what Im a-looking for but I just can't find it
Well, I gotta, I guess I gotta look inside myself some more

Oh Riki tiki tavi mongoose at your door no more no more no more
Riki tiki tavi mongoose at your door no more
He won't be coming around for to kill your snakes no more, my love
For your Riki tiki tavi mongoose at your door no more

Oh no, no, no la, no, no do do do do da
Oh la la la

Well, the people walking around theyre taking their drop and they trip trip
Well, they dont know what theyre doing to the pretty nuff assistant
Well, Ive taken every drug there is to take and I know
That the natural high is the best high in the world
Ah, natural high best high in the world

Oh no no no, no more no more no more

Laboratory synthetic stimuli
Only goes to fog up your third eye
Laboratory synthetic stimuli
Only goes to fog up your third eye

Oh ma

Well, natural high is the best high in the world
Oh, natural high is the best high in the world
