Froggy's Lament

by Buckner & Garcia

Spoken:
Ribbit.
Pluck your magic twanger, Froggy.

Froggy takes one step at a time;
The way that he moves has no reason or rhyme;
He hops and jumps, dodges and ducks
Cars and buses, vans and trucks.

Chorus:
Go, Froggy, go!
You've got to keep on hopping till you get to the top.
Go, Froggy, go!
You've got to keep on hopping you can never stop.
Go . . . go, Froggy, go.

Spoken:
Hiya, kids.

Froggy takes one step at a time;
The way that he moves has no reason or rhyme;
There's snakes and insects, otters and things;
At times I wish Froggy had wings.

Chorus

Froggy takes one step at a time;
The way that he moves has no reason or rhyme;
The diving turtles have fooled him again;
I guess for old Froggy, it's sink or swim.

Chorus

Spoken:
Ribbit!

Froggy takes one step at a time;
The way that he moves has no reason or rhyme;
He rides on the logs all the way to the top,
And into his cage with one final hop.

Chorus

Spoken:
Pluck your magic twanger, Froggy.

Chorus (keep repeating and fade)
