《The Hippopotamus Song(New Master)》歌词

[00:00:00] The Hippopotamus Song (Live) (New Master) - Flanders And Swann

[00:00:21] A bold hippopotamus was standing one day

[00:00:25] On the banks of the cool shalimar

[00:00:29] He gazed at the bottom as it peacefully lay

[00:00:32] By the light of the evening star

[00:00:36] Away on a hilltop sat combing her hair

[00:00:40] His fair hippopotami maid

[00:00:43] The hippopotamus was no ignoramus

[00:00:47] And sang her this sweet serenade

[00:00:52] Mud mud glorious mud

[00:00:57] Nothing quite like it for cooling the blood

[00:01:00] So follow me follow down to the hollow

[00:01:05] And there let us wallow in glorious mud

[00:01:13] The fair hippopotama he aimed to entice

[00:01:17] From her seat on that hilltop above

[00:01:21] As she hadn't got a ma to give her advice

[00:01:24] Came tip toeing down to her love

[00:01:29] Like thunder the forest reechoed the sound

[00:01:33] Of the song that they sang as they met

[00:01:36] His inamorata adjusted her garter and lifted her voice in duet

[00:01:44] For setal

[00:01:46] Mud mud glorious mud

[00:01:49] Nothing quite like it for cooling the blood

[00:01:53] So follow me follow down to the hollow

[00:01:58] And there let us wallow in glorious mud

[00:02:06] Now more hippopotami began to convene

[00:02:10] On the banks of that river so wide

[00:02:13] I wonder now what am I to say of the scene

[00:02:17] That ensued by the shalimar side

[00:02:20] They dived all at once with an ear splitting splosh

[00:02:24] Then rose to the surface again

[00:02:28] A regular army of hippopot army

[00:02:33] All singing this haunting refrain

[00:02:36] Not to charles

[00:02:38] Mud mud glorious mud

[00:02:42] Nothing quite like it for cooling the blood

[00:02:46] So follow me follow down to the hollow

[00:02:52] And there let us wallow in glorious mud
