I'm taking my Skoda 100 to go camping in Orava.
I've got to hurry so I'm taking risks, driving through Moravia.
There's a monster in the countryside, he comes out of the swamps.
He mostly eats people from Prague and his name is Joey.

Chorus:

Joey the Swampthing slithering through the bog,
Joey the Swampthing creeping into town,
Joey the Swampthing sharpening his teeth,
Joey the Swampthing bites, chomps and strangles.
Joey the Swampthing, how can we catch him?
Who could have imagined!
The only thing that will work is a crop duster.

I drove through a village on the road to Vizovice
The mayor welcomed me over a glass of slivovice
He said, He who brings us Joey, dead or alive,
I'll give him my daughter's hand in marriage, and half the collective farm!

Chorus

I said, Mr Mayor, just give me a plane and some powder
I can get you Joey without any problem
The mayor agreed, so in the morning I took off,
All the powder from the plane fell on Joey so nicely.

Joey the Swampthing all covered in white,
Joey the Swampthing crawling out of the mud,
Joey the Swampthing climbing onto a rock,
Joey the Swampthing, it's all over for him now.
I caught Joey, now I've got him, yo ho ho
I'll take any cash I can so I'm selling him to the zoo!
