Manatee book I have...
I'm a Manatee
From time to time I dream that I'm a manatee,
Undulating underneath the sea.
Unshackled by the chains of idle vanity,
A modest manatee, that's me.
I look just like a chubby brown banana-tee
As I nose along the cozy ocean floor.
Immune from human folly and inanity,
That's why a manatee is such a happy herbivore.
I'm a manatee, I'm a manatee.
I'm every bit as wrinkled as my grann-atee.
No difference between my face and fann-atee,
A noble manatee, that's me.
With the dietary habits of a manatee,
I never fail to lick my platter clean.
I sprinkle seaweed on my Raisin Bran-a-tee,
The perfect manatee cuisine.
I'm a manatee, I'm a manatee.
I keep my reputation spick and span-atee.
No difference between my face and fann-atee
A stately manatee, that's me.
Encumbered by my lumbering gigan-atee,
I'm thought to be an ocean-going brute!
The least appealing creature on the planet-ee
But to a manatee, I'm cute!
I prefer my world of silence and of sanity,
But my underwater friends don't all agree.
For whenever I am dreaming I'm a manatee,
Somewhere a manatee is dreaming that he's me!
I'm a manatee, I'm a manatee,
Outside the fold of boring old humanity.
No difference between my face and fann-atee...
I'm a rolly-polly, jelly-rolly, sugar-bowly, heart-and-soully manatee...
That's me! |
If time itself was his demeanor
There'd be no sunlight or a glimmer
Of sunlight landing on the street,
Sunsuit girls must be discreet.
Sunsuit girls must be discreet,
Nursing their fathers locked inside
They masqueraded as his bride
I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
But there's something in your eyes that says "maybe"
That's never!
Never say never!
Slumped by the courthouse with windburnt skin
That man could give a fuck about the grin
On your face as you walk by
Randy as a goat
He's sleepin' on papers but
He'd be warm in your coat
I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
But there's something in your eyes that says "maybe"
That's never!
Never say never!
There's no easy way to lose your sight
On the street, on the stairs
Who's on your flight?
Old couple walks by
Ugly as sin
He's got her
She's got him
I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
But there's something in your eyes that says "maybe"
That's never!
Never say never!
Sun seems to move,
Across the sky so slow
It's us who's turning
With nowhere to go
Sun seems to move,
Across the sky so slow
It's us who's turning
With nowhere to go
I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
I might like you better if we slept together
But there's something in your eyes that says "maybe"
That's never!
Never say never!
