I. “Pink Elephants On Parade”
[Verse 1]
Look out, look out
Pink elephants on parade
Here they come, hippity-hoppity
They're here, they’re there
Pink elephants everywhere
[Verse 2]
Look out, look out
They're walking around the bed
On their head, clippity-cloppity
Arrayed in braid
Pink elephants on parade
[Interlude 1]
What'll I do? What’ll I do?
What an unusual view
[Verse 3]
I can stand the sight of worms
And look at microscopic germs
But technicolor pachyderms
Is really too much for me
[Verse 4]
I am not the type to faint
When things are odd or things are quaint
But seeing things you know that ain't
Can certainly give you an awful fright
[Interlude 2]
(What a sight)
Chase ‘em away! Chase ‘em away!
I'm afraid, need your aid
Pink elephants on parade
[Outro]
Pink elephants
Pink elephants
Pink elephants
