THE WARTHOG (Flanders and Swan) The Jungle was giving a party A post hibernation ball The Ballroom was crowded with waltzing Gazelles, Gorillas and Zebras and all. But who is that animal almost in tears Pretending to powder her nose? A poor little Warthog who sits by herself In a pink satin with blue bows. Again she is no-body's choice And she sings in a sad little voice: cho: No one ever wants to court a Warthog Though a Warthog does her best I've spent a lot of money for a Warthog I am perfumed and prettily dressed I've lustrinsed my hair I'm perfumed here and there My gums were tinted when I brushed my teeth I'm young and in my prime But a wallflower all the time 'Cos I'm a Warthog Just a Warthog I'm a Warthog underneath Take your partners for a ladies Excuse me! Excited and radiant she runs on the floor To join the furor and fuss. She taps on each shoulder and says 'Excuse me!' and each couple replied 'Excuse us!' Then having no manners at all They sing as they dance round the hall: 'No one ever wants to court a Warthog Though a Warthog does her best Her accessories are dazzling for a Warthog She is perfumed and daringly dressed We know her these and those are like Marilyn Monroe's Her gown is just a scintillating sheath But she somehow fails to please 'Cos everybody sees she's a Warthog Just a Warthog She's a Warthog underneath' Head hanging she wanders away from the floor This Warthog whom nobody loves Then stops in amazement for there at the door Stands a gentleman Warthog impeccably dressed In the act of removing his gloves. His fine chiseled face seems to frown As he looks her first up then down 'I fancy you must be a sort of Warthog Though for a Warthog you look a mess That make-up's far to heavy for a Warthog;; You could have chosen a more suitable dress Did you have to dye your hair? If that's perfume give me air! I strongly disapprove of scarlet teeth But let us take the floor 'Cause I'm absolutely sure That you're a Warthog Just a Warthog The sweetest little, Neatest little Dearest and completest little Warthog ... underneath'. @animal filename[ WARTHOG RG Feb07 |
