Stewart Al Hipposong Lyrics

Hipposong Lyrics

I was surrounded by a large hippopotamus

 And nine of its friends who declared

 Quite a lot of us

 Are feelingrather blue

 And we don't know what to do

 I turned away but the large hippopotamus

 Said that his pit of despair appeared bottomless

 Yest hippopotami are

 Not supposed to cry

 I said "My, my, other people's problems

 Do get tedious by and bye

 My, my you can never solve them

 No matter how hard you try."

 

 This brought a tear from the large hippopotamus

 Who said in a voice that was growing monotonous

 You cannot get the sense

 Of how it feels to be immense

 The sleek and the sliim make fun

 Of a lot of us

 And creatures who fly

 Through the air

 Sit on top of us

 ANd even in the pool 

 We are faced with ridicule

 I said "My, my other people's problems

 Do get tedious by and by

 My, my you can never solve them

 No matter how hard you try."

 

 I came back as a large hippopotamus
