[Verse 1]
Well the woman I love is named Ramona
She kinda looks like Tempest Storm
She can dance like little Egypt
She works down at the snake farm
[Chorus]
Snake Farm - It just sounds nasty
Snake Farm - It pretty much is
Snake Farm - It's a reptile house
Snake Farm ... Uuuggghhhhh
[Verse 2]
Now Ramona's got a keen sense of humor
She's got a tattoo down her arm
All of a python eatin' a little mouse
Wearin' a sailor hat that says "Snake Farm"
[Chorus]
Snake Farm - It just sounds nasty
Snake Farm - Pretty much is
Snake Farm - It's a reptile house
Snake Farm ... Uuuggghhhhh
[Verse 3]
Well I asked Ramona how come she works there
She says, "Well, it's got it's charms
"Nothing to do here in the winter
"Now and then some kid gets bit at the snake farm"
[Chorus]
Snake Farm - It just sounds nasty
Snake Farm - It pretty much is
Snake Farm - It's a reptile house
Snake Farm ... Ooooohhh
[Verse 4]
Well Ramona likes her malt liquor
And a band from Wales called The Alarm
She said she cried when they broke up
She still plays their records at the snake farm
[Chorus]
Snake Farm - Sure sounds nasty
Snake Farm - Pretty much is
Snake Farm - It's a reptile house
Snake Farm ... Ooooohhh
[Verse 5]
Sometimes Ramona calls up
And says, "Come on down here, it's getting warm"
She runs everyone off
And we... you know... we... uh... it's a snake farm
[Chorus]
Snake Farm - It just sounds nasty
Snake Farm - Pretty much is
Snake Farm - It's a reptile house
Snake Farm ... Ooooohhh
