Better get into what you gotta get into
Better get into it now, no slacking please
United Nations ain't really united
And the organisations ain't really organised
Riki tiki tavi mongoose is gone
Riki tiki tavi mongoose is gone
Won't be coming around for to kill your snakes no more my love
Riki tiki tavi mongoose is gone
(Every)body who read the Jungle Book knows that Riki tiki tavi's a
Mongoose who kills snakes
(Well) when I was a young man I was led to believe there were organisations
To kill my snakes for me
(ie the) church ie the government ie the school
(but when I got a little older) I learned I had to kill them myself
(I said) Riki tiki tavi mongoose is gone
Riki tiki tavi mongoose is gone
Won't be coming around for to kill your snakes no more my love
Riki tiki tavi mongoose is gone
