[G]
[D] [G] [A] [G]
[D] [A]
[G] A nap-a-bessing elephant with tiny eyes and great big [C] conch-want whispered to the tiny
ear, the ear of one inferior, [G] that by next [D] June he'd [G] die.
Oh yeah, because the tiger [D] would roam.
The little one said, oh my goodness, [G] I must [F#] stay at [G] home.
And every time I hear a growl, I'll know the [D] [G] tiger's on the [C] prowl, and I'll be really safe,
you know.
The elephant, he told me [G] so.
Everyone was nervy, oh yeah, and the message [D] was [G] spread to zebra [D] mongoose and the dirty
[Bm] hippopotamus [G] who wallowed in the mud and chewed his spicy hippoplankton [C] food and tended to
ignore the word, referring to [Am] some day [G] a herd of stupid water bison.
Oh yeah, and all the jungle [D] came right and ran around for all the day and the night,
[G] but all in vain, because you see, the tiger came and said to me, [C] you know, I wouldn't
hurt not one of you.
I much prefer something [G] to chew, and you're all too scant.
Oh yeah, he ate [D] the [G] elephant.
