Текст песни: Hippopotamus + перевод

There’s a hippopotamus, a hippopotamus, a hippopotamus in my pool

There’s a hippopotamus, a hippopotamus, a hippopotamus in my pool

How did it get there, how did it get there, how did it get there?

I don’t know

How did it get there, how did it get there, how did it get there?

I don’t know

There’s a book by Anonymous, a book by Anonymous, a book by Anonymous in my pool

There’s a book by Anonymous, a book by Anonymous, and a hippopotamus in my pool

No, I’ve not read it, no, I’ve not read it

When it dries out I’ll have a go

How did it get there, how did it get there, how did it get there?

I don’t know

Someone must have been fooling around

Someone must have been acting the clown

Someone must have been taking the piss

Taking the piss in acting like this

There’s a painting by Hieronymous Bosch, by Hieronymous Bosch, by Hieronymous

in my pool

There’s a painting by Hieronymous Bosch, by Hieronymous Bosch, by Hieronymous

in my pool

How did it get there, how did it get there, how did it get there?

Sure beats me

Must be a late work, must be a late work, one of his late works

Obviously!

There’s a Volkswagen Microbus, a Volkswagen Microbus, a Volkswagen Microbus in

my pool

A '58 Microbus, a '58 Microbus, a '58 Microbus in my pool

A hippy is driving, a hippy is driving

A drippy ol' hippy, poor, poor guy

A hippy is driving, a hippy is driving

I throw him a towel, here go get dry

Someone must have been acting real cute

Someone wearing a slim-fitty suit

Someone must have thought, oh, what a laugh

Throw in a hippo and then a giraffe

There is Titus Andronicus, Titus Andronicus, Titus Andronicus in my pool

There is Titus Andronicus, Titus Andronicus wearing a snorkel in my pool

Now he’s gone under, now he’s gone under, now he’s gone under

Worry not

Excellent swimmer, excellent swimmer

Looking much trimmer than I’d thought

There’s a woman with an abacus, a woman with an abacus, a woman with an abacus,

she looks Chinese

There’s a woman with an abacus, a woman with an abacus, a woman with an abacus,

she looks Chinese

Not that I’m prejudiced, not that I’m prejudiced, not that I’m prejudiced

No not me

Not that I’m prejudiced, not that I’m prejudiced, not that I’m prejudiced

That’s not me

Throw in a hippo, a little Dutch art

An actor performing a Shakespearean part

Summery book and Germanic van

Asian lady, isn’t it grand?

Yes, yes, so grand
