[Verse 1]
Hold me tight and pull me under
You let me drown, you let me dream
Well you should know by now my heart is in your teeth
Hey alligator, have some mercy on me
(Have some mercy on me)

[Chorus]
Cold blooded, hot headed, I love it, I can't escape you
Why do I come back for more? It's human nature
And you should know by now my heart is in your teeth
Hey alligator, have some mercy on me
(Have some mercy on me)

[Post-Chorus]
Have some mercy on me

[Verse 2]
Lift me up you take me higher
You let me down I fall so far
Well I should know by now your jaws won't let me free
Hey alligator, have some mercy on me
(Have some mercy on me)

[Chorus]
Cold blooded, hot headed, I love it, I can't escape you
Why do I come back for more? It's human nature
And you should know by now my heart is in your teeth
Hey alligator, have some mercy on me
(Have some mercy on me)
[Post-Chorus]
Well you should know by now my heart is in your teeth
Hey alligator, have some mercy
Have some mercy, have some mercy on me
(Have some mercy on me)
Have some mercy on me
