Lyrics:

Crocodile tears, that’s what you cried
When I wanted to leave your side and you said:
“Hey baby…look at me
Don’t you have no sympathy?”
Well I should have known better
I could have been free
But I walked too close and you nearly swallowed me

They said you were low, they said you were mean
But I just thought you were really green when you said:
“Hey, baby…this is so new
I have never loved like I love you.”
Well I should have known better
I could have been free
But I walked too close and you nearly swallowed me

One day I went walking by the river side
Just wanted to see your crocodile eyes and I heard you say:
“Baby, please…”
So I turned around, but you weren’t talking to me
Well I should have known be tter
I could have been free
But I walked too close and you nearly swallowed me

Crocodile tears, that’s what you cried
When I wanted to walk on by and you said:
“Hey baby…Can't you see
I just need your sympathy?”
Well I knew better
Now I'm free
And you look best as the boots on my feet
