Lyrics High Horse - Graham Parker

High Horse

The saddest animal in this zoo
Is not the lion the tiger or
The pink-ass baboon
It’s not the giant centipede or
The vampire bat
Not the black mambo or the feral cat
Yeah there’s one creature
Much worse of course
Yeah the baddest one he is the high horse
Get off your high horse
Get off your high horse
Get off your high horse
Get off
The biggest ape swingin'
Through these trees
Won’t try to bring you
Down to your knees
The most vicious lizard
From the isle of komodo
Won’t jerk you around
Like you are a yo yo
Yeah there’s one animal
Worse of course
I’m a talking about the high horse
Now don’t sweat the rhino
With his horn up high
Or the pangolin or the tsetse fly
Ignore the marabou stork
And the laughing hyena
The scorpion and the
Ring-tailed lemur
Yeah there’s one creature
Much worse of course
Yeah the baddest one
She is the high horse
