The Gnu Song [2003 - Remaster[00:00:00]
A year ago last Thursday[00:00:08]
I was strolling in the zoo[00:00:10]
When I met a man[00:00:12]
Who though he knew the lot [00:00:13]
He was laying down the law[00:00:15]
About the habits of Baboons[00:00:17]
And how many quills a porcupine has got [00:00:19]
So I asked him[00:00:23]
'What's that creature there '[00:00:23]
He answered: 'Oh H'it's a H'elk'[00:00:25]
I might of gone on thinking that was true [00:00:28]
If the animal in question hadn't[00:00:31]
Put that chap to shame[00:00:33]
And remarked: 'I h'aint a H'elk I'm a Gnu '[00:00:35]
'I'm a Gnu I'm a Gnu[00:00:43]
The g-nicest work of g-nature in the zoo[00:00:47]
I'm a Gnu How do you do[00:00:51]
You really ought to k-now w-ho's w-ho's[00:00:55]
I'm a Gnu Spelt G-N-U[00:00:59]
I'm g-not a Camel or a Kangaroo[00:01:02]
So let me introduce [00:01:06]
I'm g-neither man nor moose[00:01:08]
Oh g-no g-no g-no I'm a Gnu'[00:01:10]
I had taken furnished lodgings down[00:01:20]
At Rustington-on-Sea[00:01:22]
Whence I travelled[00:01:24]
On to Ashton-under-Lyne it was actually[00:01:25]
And the second night I stayed[00:01:28]
There I was woken from a dream[00:01:29]
That I'll tell you all about some other time[00:01:31]
Among the hunting trophies[00:01:34]
On the wall above my bed[00:01:36]
Stuffed and mounted [00:01:38]
Was a face I thought I knew;[00:01:40]
A Bison No it's not a Bison An Okapi [00:01:43]
Unlikely Really A Hartebeest [00:01:48]
When I though I heard a voice: 'I'm a Gnu '[00:01:53]
I'm a Gnu A g-nother gnu[00:02:00]
I wish I could g-nash my teeth at you [00:02:05]
I'm a Gnu How do you do[00:02:08]
You really ought to k-now w-ho's w-ho [00:02:12]
I'm a Gnu Spelt G-N-U [00:02:16]
Call me Bison or Okapi and I'll sue[00:02:19]
G-nor am I the least[00:02:22]
Like that dreadful Hartebeest [00:02:24]
Oh g-no g-no g-no [00:02:26]
G-no g-no g-no I'm a Gnu[00:02:30]
G-no g-no g-no I'm a Gnu[00:02:34]
