There’s an opossum in a pocket and you really shouldn’t knock it
Because that opossum is a living large
She’s just a riding there with her spiked-up hair
Giving orders and a taking charge
There’s an opossum in a pocket and you really shouldn’t knock it
When you see her in her momma’s pouch
It’s like a limousine looking low and lean
Like Elvis on a velvet couch
There’s an opossum in a pocket and you really shouldn’t knock it
You have to say it’s pretty rad
And if Hollywood figures out it’s good
It might even become a fad
There’s an opossum in a pocket and you really shouldn’t knock it
She really has a right to brag
That baby opossum has a pretty good gig
Hanging out in a fuzzy bag
Bridge:
There’s an opossum in a pocket
Like a diamond in a locket, LET’S ROCK IT!
There’s an opossum in a pocket and she really likes to rock it
Yea she really likes living there
And if someone sneers and says it’s kind of weird
That little opossum doesn’t seem to care
There’s an opossum in a pocket and she’s really going to sock it to you
She’s going to blow your mind
She’s on easy street yea she’s got life beat
Living large and a feeling fine
