《A Gnu》歌词

[00:00:00] The Gnu Song - Flanders & Swann/Flanders/Swann

[00:00:00] The gnu song

[00:00:09] A year ago

[00:00:11] Last Thursday I was strolling in the zoo

[00:00:14] When I met a man who though he knew the lot

[00:00:17] He was laying down the law about

[00:00:20] The habits of Baboons

[00:00:22] And how many quills a porcupine has got

[00:00:25] So I asked him: 'What's that creature there '

[00:00:28] He answered: 'Oh H'it's a H'elk'

[00:00:32] I might of gone on thinking that was true

[00:00:35] If the animal in question

[00:00:37] Hadn't put that chap to shame

[00:00:40] And remarked: 'I h'aint a H'elk I'm a Gnu '

[00:00:50] 'I'm a Gnu I'm a Gnu

[00:00:54] The g-nicest work of g-nature in the zoo

[00:00:59] I'm a Gnu How do you do

[00:01:03] You really ought to k-now w-ho's w-ho's

[00:01:06] I'm a Gnu Spelt G-N-U

[00:01:10] I'm g-not a Camel or a Kangaroo

[00:01:14] So let me introduce

[00:01:16] I'm g-neither man nor moose

[00:01:19] Oh g-no g-no g-no I'm a Gnu'

[00:01:31] I had taken furnished lodgings

[00:01:33] Down at Rustington-on-Sea

[00:01:35] Whence I travelled on to

[00:01:37] Ashton-under-Lyne it was actually

[00:01:39] And the second night I stayed

[00:01:41] There I was woken from a dream

[00:01:43] That I'll tell you all about some other time

[00:01:47] Among the hunting trophies

[00:01:49] On the wall above my bed

[00:01:51] Stuffed and mounted

[00:01:53] Was a face I thought I knew;

[00:01:56] A Bison No

[00:01:59] An Okapi could be A Hartebeest

[00:02:08] When I though I heard a voice: 'I'm a Gnu '

[00:02:16] I'm a Gnu A g-nother gnu

[00:02:22] I wish I could g-nash my teeth at you

[00:02:26] I'm a Gnu How do you do

[00:02:30] You really ought to k-now w-ho's w-ho

[00:02:33] I'm a Gnu Spelt G-N-U

[00:02:37] Call me Bison or Okapi and I'll sue

[00:02:41] G-nor am I the least

[00:02:43] Like that dreadful Hartebeest

[00:02:47] Oh g-no g-no g-no I'm a Gnu

[00:02:51] G-no g-no g-no I'm a Gnu

[00:02:55] G-no g-no g-no I'm a Gnu
