The Gnu Song - Flanders & Swann[00:00:00]
A year ago last Thursday I was strolling in the zoo[00:00:10]
When I met a man who thought he knew the lot [00:00:14]
He was laying down the law about the habits of baboons [00:00:18]
And the number of quills a porcupine has got [00:00:21]
So I asked him "What's that creature there ” [00:00:25]
He answered "Oh it's a h-elk"[00:00:27]
I might have gone on thinking that was true [00:00:30]
If the animal in question hadn’t put that chap to shame[00:00:33]
And remarked "I h-ain't a h-elk I'm a g-nu"[00:00:37]
“I'm a g-nu[00:00:45]
I'm a g-nu[00:00:47]
The g-nicest work of g-nature in the zoo[00:00:50]
I'm a g-nu[00:00:53]
How do you do [00:00:55]
You really ought to k-now w-ho’s w-ho "[00:00:57]
"I'm a g-nu spelt G-N-U[00:01:01]
I'm g-not a camel or a kangaroo[00:01:04]
So let me introduce[00:01:08]
I'm g-neither man or moose[00:01:10]
Oh g-know g-know g-know[00:01:12]
I'm a g-nu "[00:01:14]
I had taken furnished lodgings down at Rustington-On-Sea[00:01:22]
Whence I travelled on to Ashton-Under-Lime it wasactually[00:01:26]
And the second night I stayed there I was wakened froma dream[00:01:30]
Which I'll tell you all about some other time[00:01:33]
Among the hunting trophies on the wall above my bed [00:01:37]
Stuffed and mounted was a face I thought I knew[00:01:41]
A bison No it's not a bison An ocapi It's unlikely really[00:01:45]
Could it be a hartebeest [00:01:51]
When I seemed to hear a voice: “I'm a g-nu"[00:01:55]
"I'm a g-nu[00:02:03]
A g-nother g-nu [00:02:05]
I wish I could g-nash my teeth at you [00:02:07]
I'm a g-nu[00:02:11]
How do you do [00:02:12]
You really ought to k-now w-ho's w-ho ”[00:02:14]
"I'm a g-nu spelt G-N-U [00:02:18]
Call me 'bison' or 'ocapi' and I'll sue[00:02:21]
G-nor am I in the least [00:02:25]
Like that dreadful hartebeest[00:02:27]
Oh g-no g-no g-no[00:02:29]
G-know g-know g-know I'm a g-nu[00:02:33]
G-know g-know g-know I'm a g-nu [00:02:36]
That's very g-nice of you[00:03:03]
