Everybody who read the Jungle Book

Knows that Riki Tiki Tavi's a mongoose who kills snakes

When I was a young man I was led to believe

There were organizations to kill my snakes for me

IE the church IE the government IE the school

But when I got a little older I learned how to kill them myself

I said "I need to get Riki Tiki 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

People walking around they don't know what they're doing

They been lost so long they don't know what they're looking for

Well I know what I'm looking for but I just can't find it

I guess I gotta look inside of myself some more

Oh oh oh inside of myself some more some more now

Oh oh oh inside of myself some more
