Green Tree Frog
by Dmitri Skomorochov
Once when I was home alone, chugging a beer or four,
A lit-tle green tree frog came a-walking through my door,
I said good day, how do you do, can I offer you a beer,
He shook his head and then he said, "There's something better here,"
Well, I took a sip, I took a gulp, I drank the whole damn glass,
I won't forget the Green Tree Frog that knocked me on my ass!
He handed me a mug that look like it could hold the sea,
And in it was a drink that scared the Jesus out of me,
It was green and pale and slimy, and had a bit of a glow,
Why I chose to take a drink, I think I'll never know,
Well, I took a sip, I took a gulp, I drank the whole damn glass,
I won't forget the Green Tree Frog that knocked me on my ass!
One drink turned to two drinks, and that turned to many more,
That last thing I remember was my falling to the floor,
When I awoke, the frog was gone, and with him was his drink,
But there was still a little left, that we spilled in the sink,
Well, I took a sip, I took a gulp, I drank the whole damn glass,
I won't forget the Green Tree Frog that knocked me on my ass!
I spent three days in living Hell, unconscious on the floor,
The drink had nearly killed me, but still I wanted more,
If you ever see a green tree frog, and he offers you a chug,
Stay away, the bastard's mine, and so's what's in his mug!
Well, I took a sip, I took a gulp, I drank the whole damn glass,
I won't forget the Green Tree Frog that knocked me on my ass!
