I didn't mind the smell of formaldehyde on our first date
or the moment when a glass eyeball fell out onto her plate
or when I drove her home, and she said what turned her on
was picking up roadkill from the interstate

She told me her dream man was teddy roosevelt
She ran her hands across my leather belt

My baby's into taxidermy
It doesn't seem to concern me
out of all the zoological hobbies in the world, my girl
she's into taxidermy

She took me up to her lovin' bed
Showed me her diorama of animal heads
I asked if it'd be alright if I turned out the lights
She said let 'em watch - they're already dead

She told me her dream about teddy roosevelt
She began to undo my leather belt

She told me to call her teddy roosevelt
She said to lie down on the tiger pelt

My baby's into taxidermy
It doesn't seem to concern me
out of all the zoological hobbies in the world, my girl
she's into taxidermy
