Nala
not by the Kinks
============================


I saw her on the bank down the Waterhole
where the water's brown and it tastes just like Cherry Cola
C-O-L-A Cola.

She walked up to me and she gave me no choise;
I asked her her name and in a tender voice 
she said, "Nala" 
N-A-L-A Nala, na na na Nala

Well, I'm not the world's most passionate guy,
but when I looked in her eyes,
I really fell for my Nala,
Na na na Nala, na na na Nala

I'm not dumb but I wonder at this:
why she walks like a lion and talks like a miss
Oh my Nala, na na na Nala, na na na Nala

Well, I groomed her fur and we scuffled all night,
under the sparkly dots of light,
she licked my chin  and whispered in a minor key,
She purred, "Silly boy, are you as hungry as me?"

Well, I'm not the world's most physical guy,
and when she pinned me down she almost broke my spine
Oh my Nala, na na na Nala

I plunged in a pond.  I dragged her in too.
She looked a bit miffed;  maybe I was too wild.
I glanced her way - saw that she smiled.

But that's the way that I want it to stay.
Behind her gentle facade, she knows I'm her pray.
Na na na Nala.

Men will be lions, and the lion's the king.
It's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up thing,
except for Nala.  Na na na Nala.  Na na na Nala.

Well, I never ever kissed a lion before,
But try it once, and you'll be back for more!
Nala smiled and I forgot about the law
I said, "Wow,  she's really got me 'round her claw"

Well I'm not the world's most leonine man,
I'm only human --- sadly, that's what I am,
not so for Nala.
Na na na Nala.  Na na na Nala.
