Snakes vs Lizards

Snakes give me the creeps

With their legless slithering

And the way they can creep

Then they're constantly coiling

No, I can’t do creepy snakes

With their constant hissing

Not even with a bunch of rakes

Would I even consider kissing

I wouldn’t even take any as freebies

Even if you offered me money, I could not

They give me such Heebie-Jeebies

Even if they were an Autobot

So I really don’t like snakes

They give me the freaks

Looking like God made several mistakes

You may think my opinion reeks

But give me a lizard any day of the week
