Cobra versus mongoose

The big fight's gonna start, people gather round.
Two fighters came from a southern island.
They are in a cage but they don't move.
They are only sleeping.

It's a sunny day.
Big fight.
Cobra versus mongoose.
Big fight, we can't wait forever.

Big fight.
Cobra versus mongoose.
Big fight, we can't wait anymore.

A tricky guy is selling snake in alcohol.
It cures all sickness and all injury.
Stiffness in the shoulders and lumbago.
When you get a burn, when you get a cut.

Cobra versus mongoose.
Big fight, we can't wait forever.

Nobody is really sure if it's a cure-all.
But some people buy th snake in alcohol.
The attraction still hasn't begun.
Cobra and mongoose want to go back home.
