In Norway is living one Marvin the Moose

Whose lately been running around on the loose.

He's made all the newspapers both near and far,

Since Myopic Marvin tried to ravish a car.

Ch. Hootle dang for de di do Hootle dang fol de day

Some loving poor Marvin was starting to crave,

When a grouchy old troll wandered out of his cave

When Marvin ran into him he uttered a curse

Which made Marvin's life take a turn for the worse.

Ch.

He declaimed to the earth and the heavens above,

That the next thing the Moose saw, why he's fall in love,

And with that pronouncement, a chuckle he gave.

Then the troll turned around and went back to his cave.

Ch.

We now go to Raymond and Kristin, his girl,

Who had been to a party, a gay social whirl

The party was o'er and as they drove back home

Poor Marvin the Moose on the roadway did roam.

Ch.

When marv saw the car a great bellow he gave,

To his myopic eyes yonder came his love-slave

He trotted toward it, his head in the air

While Kristin and Raymond both trembled with fear.

Ch.

To his enchanted eyes his true lover there stood.

And he, trying to mount her clambered up on the hood

But to his surprise his true love did not yield,

And one great splayed hoof went right through the windshield.

Ch.

He fell and then Raymond floorboarded the gas

They made their escape then, both he and his lass

While Marvin was left there in utter dispair

Bereft of the lover he thought had been there

Ch.

If you're ever in Norway and outside the town,

Look out for a moose as you're driving around.

That moose could be Marvin out still looking for,

His lost love and he might decide it's your car.

Ch

To the tune, Sweet Betsy From Pike
