The Elephant Song Lyrics

Elephants. I like elephants.
Elephants. I like elephants.
I like how they swing through trees, elephants. (No!)
What?
(Elephants don't swing through trees.)
They don't? Well what am I thinking of?
(Monkeys.)
Oh, well in that case. Monkeys. I like monkeys.
I like how they swim in the ocean… (No! that's Fish.)
Oh, I see. Fish. I like fish.
I like how they scratch at fleas (no) and sniff at trees and bark at the mailman…
(No, no, no, no.)
No?
(No, those are dogs.) Gotta like dogs. Right?
(Yeah.) Curled up on the windowsill purring, and chasing mice… (No!)
Well what then?
(Cats!)Eric Herman - The Elephant Song - http://motolyrics.com/eric-herman/the-elephant-song-lyrics.html
Cats, of course. Cats. I like cats.
I like how they say, "****-a-doodle-doo!" (No, no, no, no. They go meow! You're thinking of roosters.) Roosters. I like roosters.
I like how they reach into beehives for the honey… (No, bears do that.)
Bears, yes yes yes. Bears. I like bears.
I like how they jump up high to catch a fly and sit on a lilypad… (No, no, no, no, no! Frogs!) Gotta like frogs. (Yeah!)
Yeah. Running through a maze for some cheese…
(Noooooooooo that's mice.)
Oh, mice. Mice. I like mice.
I like how they say, "Hee, haw, hee haw"
(No. They go squeak, squeak. That's a donkey!) Donkeys, I like donkeys.
I like how they stomp through the jungle with their big gray trunks… (No, that's an elephant!)
That's like I said.
Elephants. I like elephants.
(You don't know anything about animals.)
I do so.
(You're silly.)
Am not.
