I teach y second grader with Let �s Go 2 (Oxford University Press).In Unit 1 we have a song where there �s an expression
See you later alligator
.Does it mean something or is used just for fun to provide the rhyming?? |

 I can �t sit still, either!!
@adital
I had never heard of that one before, but it �s a really funny reply! 
@Ed
*LOL* Great idea!!!!
Would "see you later, alligator ---- don�t forget to slap the waiter" be too martial??
