[00:28.04]An effervescing elephant
[00:29.99]With tiny eyes and great big trunk
[00:31.84]Once whispered to the tiny ear
[00:33.91]The ear of one inferior
[00:35.79]That by next June he'd die, oh yeah
[00:38.25]Because the tiger would roam
[00:40.22]The little one said
[00:41.62]"Oh my goodness, I must stay at home"
[00:43.54]And every time I hear a growl
[00:45.78]I'll know the tiger's on the prowl
[00:47.44]And I'll be really safe, you know
[00:49.48]The elephant, he told me so
[00:51.34]Everyone was nervy, oh yeah
[00:53.84]And the message was spread
[00:55.79]To zebra, mongoose
[00:56.89]And the dirty hippopotamus
[00:59.05]Who wallowed in the mud and chewed
[01:00.74]His spicy hippo-plankton food
[01:03.41]And tended to ignore the word
[01:05.23]Preferring to survey a herd
[01:07.26]Of stupid water bison, oh yeah
[01:09.75]And all the jungle took fright
[01:11.65]And ran around for all the day and the night
[01:14.20]But all in vain, because, you see
[01:16.76]The tiger came and said
[01:18.10]"Who, me? You know I wouldn't hurt not one of you
[01:20.59]I'd much prefer something to chew
[01:22.76]And your all to scant"
[01:24.48]Oh, yeah
[01:25.27]He ate the elephant
[01:28.62]🎵
