Hippo
Copyright 1999 Harp/Chamberlin

Oh no...

There's a hippo in the hot tub and he's makin' lots of waves
He's jokin', smokin', making friends and flirtin' with the babes
While I sit here worrying about the human race
There's a hippo in the hot tub with a big smile on his face

The G man, he tells me I have got no rights
He listens to my phone calls, he watches day and night
If I fly to freedom, the G man cuts my wings
But the hippo in the hot tub doesn't care about these things

The preacher man tells that me I am full of sin
While he dates the choir girls and drinks up all the gin
Give me all your money, and I'll give God a ring
But the hippo in the hot tub is wearing angel wings

There's a hippo in the hot tub and he's makin' lots of waves
He's jokin', smokin', making friends and flirtin' with the babes
While I sit here worrying about the human race
There's a hippo in the hot tub with a big smile on his face

The teacher man tells me, "Don't think for yourself"
"I've got all the answers, they're right here on a shelf"
He treats me like a puppet dangling on a string
But the hippo in the hot tub is eating onion rings

My girlfriend, she tells me I am not her type
I do everything for her and all she does is gripe
This is love eternal, it's quite discouraging
But the hippo in the hot tub is selling wedding rings

There's a hippo in the hot tub and he's makin' lots of waves
He's jokin', smokin', making friends and flirtin' with the babes
While I sit here worrying about the human race
There's a hippo in the hot tub with a big smile on his face
