Malvin Marr
Lives in Alligator Swamp
And plays the bass guitar
While his foot does stomp
Like it stomped one time
On the facilitator
Of his swamp nightmare
An alligator
As big as a bear
With a mouth like a cave
Full of stalagmites
Stalactites
And an alligator's eagerness
For taking bites
Of muskrats and beavers
And cypress trees
And python snakes
And human knees
Malvin Marr
Jumped high in the air
While the alligator
Lay yawning there
With mouth wide open
Not merely ajar
To take a chomp
Out of the bass guitar
That fell in the swamp
When Malvin Marr
Went running and trembling
And resembling
A fearful quivering
Shivering
Snack that the alligator
Would prefer by far
To the shellac taste
Of a bass guitar
Malvin Marr
Never had a wife
That bass guitar
Was his whole damn life
And his anger grew
And his indignation
That this damn green beast
This abomination
Would make a feast
Of the only thing
He cared about
With an awful shout
He swore that
Without a doubt
He'd get his vengeance
Viciously
On the alligator's
Gluttony
Malvin Marr
Ran into his shack
And grabbed a hunting knife
Then he ran back
To where the alligator
With bass strings stuck
Between his teeth
Ran out of luck
Because from its sheath
Malvin Marr
Drew out the blade
And he made
The alligator battle
In the swampy glade
The bloody sun
Gave way to night
And the alligator
Lost the fight
Malvin Marr
Wears alligator shoes
And an alligator overcoat
For singing the blues
He has a bass guitar
That's strung with strings
Down across rib bones
And the way it rings
And hums and moans
Is the capturing
Of the alligator's soul
Like a burning coal
That Malvin Marr
Is in control of
As he thumps the strings
And plays in key
Of Alligator Swamp
Mythology
