lirik lagu john lithgow - the gnu song
a year ago, last thursday, i was strolling in the zoo when i met a man who thought he knew the lot
he was laying down the law about the habits of baboons
and the number of quills a porcupine has got
so i asked him, “what’s that creature there?”
he answered, “it’s a h~elk.”
i might have gone on thinking that was true
if the animal in question hadn’t put that chap to shame
and remarked: “i hain’t a h~elk! i’m a g~nu!
i’m a g~nu, i’m a g~nu
the g~nicest work of g~nature in the zoo
i’m a g~nu, how d’you do?
you really ought to k~now w~ho’s w~ho!
i’m a g~nu, spelled g~n~u
i’m g~not a camel or a kangaroo
so let me introduce
i’m g~neither man or moose
oh g~no g~no g~no, i’m a g~nu!”
i had taken furnished lodgings down at rustington~on~sea
whence i travelled on to ashton~under~lyne
and the second night i stayed there, i was wakened from a dream
which i’ll tell you all about… some other time
among the hunting trophies on the wall above my head
stuffed and mounted, was a face i thought i knew
[spoken]
a bison? no, it’s not a bison
an okapi? i don’t think it’s an okapi
could it be, uh, a hartebeest?
[singing]
when i seemed to hear a voice
“i’m a g~nu
i’m a g~nu! a g~nother g~nu
i wish i could g~nash my t~~th at you
i’m a g~nu, how d’you do?
you really ought to k~now w~ho’s w~ho!
i’m a g~nu, spelled g~n~u
call me bison or okapi and i’ll sue
g~nor am i in the least like that dreadful hartebeest
oh, g~no, g~no, g~no, i’m a g~nu
g~no, g~no, g~no, i’m a g~nu!
g~no, g~no, g~no
i’m a g~nu!”
