Now Neal was known across the Nile
As a croc who never wore a smile.
In every race he was the winner
The loser then became Neal's dinner.

And, WOW, Neal turned, Sam heard him say,
"You look like a Snake from the USA."
Sam didn't know, for goodness sakes,
Neal was a guide for tourist snakes.
The race for dinner

The pyramids with a mummy and sarcophagus And so the two set out to see
The sites from Egypt history.
Neal said, "My friend, we won't come back
Till we've seen obelisks at old Karnak."

They went to Giza for a pyramid show,
Where they wrapped the mummies long ago.
A sarcophagus caused Sammy to hiss,
"At home a coffin looks nothing like thisssss!!"
