[00:00:07] Lyrics by：Michael Flanders

[00:00:08] Composed by：Donald Swann

[00:00:09] Produced by：George Martin

[00:01:22] A bold hippopotamus was standing one day

[00:01:25] On the banks of the cool Shalimar

[00:01:28] He gazed at the bottom

[00:01:29] As it peacefully lay

[00:01:32] By the light of the evening star

[00:01:35] Away on a hilltop sat combing her hair

[00:01:38] His fair hippopotami maid

[00:01:41] The hippopotamus was no ignoramus

[00:01:45] And sang her this sweet serenade

[00:01:49] Mud mud glorious mud

[00:01:53] Nothing quite like it for cooling the blood

[00:01:56] So follow me follow

[00:01:58] Down to the hollow

[00:02:01] And there let us wallow in glorious mud

[00:02:08] The fair hippopotama he aimed to entice

[00:02:11] From her seat on that hilltop above

[00:02:14] As she hadn't got a ma to give her advice

[00:02:18] Came tip-toeing down to her love

[00:02:23] Like thunder the forest re-echoed the sound

[00:02:26] Of the song that they sang as they met

[00:02:29] His inamorata adjusted her garter

[00:02:33] And lifted her voice in duet

[00:02:36] In rason

[00:02:37] Good hands

[00:02:37] Good hands

[00:02:39] Truth make a grends

[00:02:40] All you just serest sakkakor nehabaij

[00:02:44] Thakpas pis por you tham

[00:02:46] Follow me follow

[00:02:46] Nipabi jiayo piyabo

[00:02:49] Down to the hollow

[00:02:50] Nio tonk biyak koyem

[00:02:51] Sob tro koyogram

[00:02:53] Back to inmprove our culture relation

[00:02:56] Now more hippopotami began to convene

[00:02:59] On the banks of that river so wide

[00:03:03] I wonder now what-am-I to say of the scene

[00:03:06] That ensued by the Shalimar side

[00:03:10] They dived all at once

[00:03:11] With an ear-splitting splosh

[00:03:13] Then rose to the surface again

[00:03:17] A regular army of hippopotarmy

[00:03:21] All singing this haunting refrain

[00:03:23] Falsetto

[00:03:25] Mud mud glorious mud

[00:03:30] Nothing quite like it for cooling the blood

[00:03:34] So follow me follow

[00:03:37] Down to the hollow

[00:03:40] And there let us wallow in glorious mud
