The festival is so fun-su! Goshujin's been so lazy but I couldn't resist-su! The popcorn balls are really good-su! I prefer grass-su, but--

If you have a hippo you love very much,
But you find it has one or two faults,
Such as sleeping too late,
Such as making you late,
I suggest that you teach it to waltz

Now there may be a lot of us
Who think "hippopotomus"
And don't picture musical grace
But just offer the chance
To experience dance,
And you may be surprised what takes place

When a hippo can dance, it's a thrilling revelation
When a hippo can dance, there is nothing to say
When a hippo can dance, it's an overnight sensation
Don't delay, teach your hippo today!

Before we begin here's a little advice,
And then we will see how it goes;
Though your hippo is sweet,
You gotta be fast on your feet
Or it might be quite hard on your toes; ZOW!

When a hippo can dance, it's a thrilling revelation
When a hippo can dance, there is nothing to say
When a hippo can dance, it's an overnight sensation
Don't delay, teach your hippo today!

Now if you are patient and practice a lot,
Your hippo will surely improve,
And by April or May
Or ten years from today
How elegantly he will move!

I can see it now, you and your hippo
Blissfully gliding all over a stage.
Oh I imagine how you dramatically dip!
Oh, you and your hippo are all the rage
The New York Times, the front page!
(Read all about it!)

When a hippo can dance
When a hippo can dance
When a hippo can dance
Dance
Dance

Well there's just one thing that I really ought to mention,
Just one thing that I ought to confess;
There may be a chance that your hippo won't dance..

....Well it's a difficult thing to teach a hippo to swing...

.....It's unknown for their feet to connect with a beat.......

...

No one who has tried it has had any success.

At all.

None, whatsoever.

In all recorded history it's never been done!
We're counting on you to be the very first one!
We're counting on you
To be the very first one!

When a hippo can dance, it's a thrilling revelation
When a hippo can dance, there is nothing to say
When a hippo can dance, it's an overnight sensation
Don't delay, teach your hippo today!

Don't delay, teach your hippo today!

Don't delay, teach your hippo today!

Don't delay!!!
Teach your hippo today!!!!

.....E-EEEHH!?!?!
