Alligator Purse

(Kenya Slaughter Walker/Nick Pellegrino)I called him for days, he didn't answer the phone

I drove by his house, I knew he was home

A week's worth of papers and mail in the box

I thought he was dead, I picked the lock

I found him in tears in the dark on his knees

With a hole in his chest where his heart used to be

And he said...Don't call the doctor, don't call the nurse

Call for the lady with the alligator purse

She knows the spell to lift this curse

Go find the lady with the alligator purseIn an old stone house off 21st

I found the lady with the alligator purse

She answered the door, said I know who you are

She lit a candle, consulted the stars

When I saw her closing that reptile's hide

I asked her point-blank, is my friend going to die

And she said...I'm not a doctor, I'm not a nurse

I'm just the lady with the alligator purse

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst

So said the lady with the alligator purseShe said, look at what happened to Cleopatra

When she didn't take my advice

And Romeo, Juliet, they didn't get it

Too bad, those kids were so niceBy the time we got back to my pitiful pal

There was no sign of life till he saw the alligator

Purse on her arm, the gleam in her eyes

She opened the bag, there was nothing inside

She said, there's no secret, it's love that I use

I just carry this bag because it matches my shoes

And she said...Don't call the doctor, don't call the nurse

Don't call the lady with the alligator purse

Love is the magic of the universe

Take it from the lady with the alligator purseLove is the magic of the universe

Take it from the lady with the alligator purse

The lady with the alligator purse
