Joshua Giraffe |
| Joshua Giraffe was born in a zoo |
| He lived there, too, for two years |
| And a half he hasn’t had a bath |
| My mommy doesn’t lick me |
| Even when I’m sticky |
| From, candy floss, candy apples, popcorn |
| Soft drinks, jelly beans and gumdrops |
| And there must be something better |
| Than living in this cage |
| But I’m really not too sure |
| Because I’m rather short of age |
| Joshua Giraffe was feeling kind of sad |
| Things were going bad |
| How little of life he had |
| Wasting away with no room to play |
| Trapped in a zoo with buffalo poo |
| So he went next door to the elephant |
| And asked him what to do |
| I’m wasting away with no room to play |
| I’m trapped in a zoo, with buffalo poo |
| The elephant was very old and gray |
| And he had a huge balloon bottom |
| And he said, «Never fear Joshua! |
| For a vision will appear!» |
| That night a dream came to Joshua and |
| Joshua saw animals like crazy monkeys… |
| And a whole pile of Hippypotostropasuses… |
| And flitty moths… |
| Frogs size twelve… |
| And sleazy lizards… |
| And a tribe of nasty saviars! |
| But Joshua wasn’t afraid |
| Because he sang himself this song |
| Nothing can go wrong-o |
| I’m in the Congo |
| Nothing can go wrong-o |
| I’m in the Congo |
| Nothing can go wrong-o |
| I’m in the Congo |
| Nothing can go wrong-o |
| I’m in the Congo |
| Nothing can go wrong-o |
| I’m in the Congo |
| Nothing can go wrong-o |
| I’m in the Congo |
| Even in his dream he knew |
| He’d never get away |
| Not even for a day, then! |
| A peanut hit him on the nose |
| Joshua Giraffe was back in the zoo |
| What could he do |
| Awakened from his dream |
| He’d never be the same |
| Because of things he’d seen |
| He’d seen |
| Alligators, crocodiles, tree sloths (tree sloths) |
| Anacondas, cobras and |
| Large winged moths |
| Orangutans, gorillas, baboons eating grapes |
| Gibbons, rude mandrills, and just plain apes |
| But Joshua was lucky |
| He had some special friends |
| And that day they went to the zoo |
| But he was up tight so they waited till the night |
| And they chopped his cage in two |
| He discovered he could fly and |
| He soared into the sky |
| With them wrapped around his neck |
| And they haven’t come back yet |
| So if you see them get a net… |
| Funicello, ho, ho |
| Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho |
| Oh-ho-ho, oh-ho-ho |
| Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho |
| Oh-ho-ho, oh-ho-ho |
| Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho |
| Oh-ho-ho, oh-ho-ho |
| Oh-ho-ho-ho-ho |
| Oh-ho-ho, oh-ho-ho… |
| That’s right, they haven’t come back yet |
| But when they do, they say they’re |
| Going to free all the animals from their cages |
| No matter how new or modern |
| Even some pets, too |
| So if on your way home today |
| You happen to find |
| A baboon basking in the balcony |
| Or a lion licking a lemon in the lobby |
| Or a python perched in the pantry |
| A wildebeest in the W.C., |
| With a turtle twirling in your tub |
| Don’t be afraid, just say you’re a friend |
| Of their friend |
| Joshua Giraffe, Joshua, Joshua |
| Joshua Giraffe, Joshua, Joshua |
| Joshua Giraffe, Joshua, Joshua |
| Joshua Giraffe, woo hoo, Joshua, Joshua |
| Joshua Giraffe, woo hoo, Joshua, Joshua |
| Joshua Giraffe, woo hoo, Joshua, Joshua |
| Joshua Giraffe, woo hoo, Joshua, Joshua |
| Joshua Giraffe, woo hoo, Joshua, Joshua |
| Joshua Giraffe, woo hoo, Joshua, Joshua |
| Joshua Giraffe, woo hoo, Joshua, Joshua |
