Mongooses (Herpestidae) are a family of 33 living species of small carnivorans from southern Eurasia and mainland Africa. Four additional species from Madagascar in the subfamily Galidiinae, which were previously classified in this family, are also referred to as "mongooses" or "mongoose-like". Genetic evidence indicates that the Galidiinae are more closely related to other Madagascar carnivorans in the family Eupleridae, which is the closest living group to the true mongooses.
The word mongoose is derived from the Marathi name mangus (मंगूस) (pronounced as [məŋɡuːs]), perhaps ultimately from Dravidian (cf. Telugu mungeesa (ముంగిస), Kannada mungisi (ಮುಂಗಿಸಿ). The form of the English name (since 1698) was altered to its -goose ending by folk-etymology. It has no etymological connection with the word goose. The plural form is mongooses, or, rarely, mongeese. It has also been spelled mungoose.
Mongooses live in southern Asia, Africa, and southern Europe, as well in Puerto Rico and some Caribbean and Hawaiian islands, where they are an introduced species.

For the glory, the money and to the death
It'll tear your heart out!
Hey girl I'm taking to you
I'm still unable to do
Everything you want me to
And by the way
I'm all addicted to you
Your love is all
Just all I ever wanted
Now you're walking out the door
With this fake smile on your face
You act like you were bored
But your eyes are craving for more
Oh yeah this is the truth you will deny girl
You were like a tatoo
We were like ball and chain
In this curious game
And by the way
I'm still addicted to love
But vanity spun it's net
Around our frozen hearts
Now you're walking out the door
With this fake smile on your face
You act like you were bored
But your eyes are craving for more
In the village
of the jungle
lies a body
cold and dead
for the venom
of the cobra
has gone in
the body dead
rock and hill
a little girl
as she cries
all around
for the snake
has killed the father
tell me where it
can be found
mongoose! mongoose! mongoose! mongoose!
then all the people
sound the drums
call the mongoose
>from his lair
through the jungle
he flies alone
to a tunnel
on a hill
in the dark
the cobra waits
and his eyes
glow red
like a flash
comes the mongoose
for the battle
head to head
mongoose! mongoose! mongoose! mongoose!
said the mongoose
to the cobra
"see that panther
in that tree"
as the cobra
turned its head
mongoose caught it
in his teeth
then the people
started singing
for the snake
killed them all
cobra eggs
now are hatching
baby cobras
back for more!
mongoose! mongoose! mongoose! mongoose! mongoose!
mongoose! mongoose! mongoose! mongoose! mongoose!
mongoose! mongoose! mongoose! mongoose! mongoose!
mongoose! mongoose! mongoose! mongoose! mongoose!
mongoose! mongoose! mongoose! mongoose! mongoose!
