[Verse 1]
Small girl with the smiling 'gibbon
Bridled with an orchid ribbon
His curved brow in Scarlatti fashion
Boots that ride the night sky eagle

[Chorus]
Salamanda Palaganda, oh
Palamino Blue
Salamanda Palaganda, oh
June's Buffalo too
In the Parisian Zoo zoo zoo zoo zoo

[Verse 2]
An old crone squirms upon a cushion
Made from Madras silk and satin
Her steel eyes hold a scimitar passion
For the skull hewn in Scarlatti fashion

[Chorus]
Salamanda Palaganda, oh
Palamino Blue
Salamanda Palaganda, oh
June's Buffalo too
In the Parisian zoo zoo zoo zoo zoo
[Verse 3]
A cobra seer with the punctured ear
Slaughtered a Malayan sun bear
Night stood erect with brozen haunches
Zapped the seer and gave the bear back to us

[Chorus]
Salamanda Palaganda, oh
Palamino Blue
Salamanda Palaganda, oh
June's Buffalo too
In the Parisian zoo zoo zoo zoo zoo

[Outro]
Salamanda Palaganda
Salamanda Palaganda
Salamanda Palaganda
Salamanda Palaganda
Salamanda Palaganda
