When one sly snake slid up the slide,
The other sly snake slid down.
When one sly snake slid up the slide,
The other sly snake slid down.
When one sly snake slid up the slide,
The other sly snake slid down.
When one sly snake slid up the slide,
The other sly snake slid down.

Chorus:
Glory, glory, how peculiar,
Glory, glory, how peculiar,
Glory, glory, how peculiar.
When one sly snake slid up the slide,
The other sly snake slide down.

The other black bug bled blue blood back.

The other purple porcupine poked back.
