Song language: English
I'm a Manatee |
From time to time I dream that I’m a manatee |
Undulating underneath the sea |
Unshackled by the chains of idle vanity |
A modest manatee, that’s me |
I look just like a chubby, brown banana-tee |
As I nose along the cozy ocean floor |
Immune from human folly and inanity |
That’s why a manatee is such a happy, herby bore |
I’m a manatee, I’m a manatee |
I’m every bit as wrinkled as my grannity |
No difference between my face and fanity |
A noble manatee, well, that’s me |
With the dietary habits of a manatee |
I never fail to lick my platter clean |
I sprinkle seaweed on my raisin branity |
The perfect manatee cuisine |
With my wit, sophistication and urbanity |
I dignify my watery domain |
No one near will ever hear me use profanity |
Because a manatee has his image to maintain |
I’m a manatee, I’m a manatee |
I keep my reputation spick and spanity |
No difference between my face and fanity |
A speakly manatee, well, that’s me |
Encumbered by my lumbering giganity |
I’m thought to be an ocean going brute |
The least appealing creature on the planety |
But to a manatee, I’m cute |
I prefer my world of silence and of sanity |
But my underwater friends don’t all agree |
For whenever I am dreaming I’m a manatee |
Somewhere a manatee is dreaming that he is me |
I’m a manatee, I’m a manatee |
Outside the fold of boring old humanity |
No difference between my face and fanity |
I’m a rolly polly, jelly rolly, sugar bowly |
Heart and souly manatee, that’s me |
