Fm                D#
What'll it be now mister mole
A#m              C#
Whisper sloth in curls of smoke
            Fm            D#
Take a back seat or play pharaoh
A#m                C#
Dance with me and shake your bones

Chorus:
Fm
Slow down
         D#
It's a science
          Fm
He's been waiting
     G#
To bring you down
 Fm
Snake eyed
        D#
With a sly smile
       A#m
He can hold you
     C7
And shake you child

Leopards laze each on plush pillows
Slender capes of red and chrome
Paperback dreams in their deep doze
Twitch their toes to black mambo

Chorus

"Wanna play cheat now?" says the sloth
A domino flush to his nose
Tickle that cheek and take your throne
Pump your veins with gushing gold

Chorus

We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you
We can hold you
