À Congress of Lizardkind

[Verse] In the tropical heat, there is a gathering Of all the lizard folk that are inhabiting An island that no man has ever beheld Hidden in the farthest waters unsailed A Congress of the squamate phylum Orderly and respectful as they file in Iguanas, geckos, and chameleons, Bearded dragons and lacertidaeans Anoles, gekkota, and all the rest Take care to not forget the Basilisk [Chorus] What is it these reptilians come to discuss? Matters of life and death and criminal justice? Or maybe they are simply drawn together Scale-skinned but somehow birds of a feather A Congress of the squamate phylum Orderly and respectful as they file in Denizens of the wild, wearing ties and smilin Clutching their bourbons, sophisticated and trying their best even if their best is not enough! and what else could you ask? well okay lets not ask the basilisk
