Unicorn

unicorn

A long time ago, when the earth was green
there were more kinds of animals than you've ever seen
They'd run around free while the earth was being born
But the loveliest of all was the unicorn.
There was green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty-backed camels and chimpanzees
Some catsandratsandelephants, but sure as you're born
The loveliest of all was the unicorn
Now god seen some sinnin' and it gave him pain
And he says, "stand back, I'm going to make it rain"
He says, "hey, brotha Noah, I'll tell you what to do
you gunna Build me a floating zoo"
And take some of them green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty-backed camels and chimpanzees
Some catsandratsandelephants, but sure as you're born
Don't you goin and forgetin my unicorn"
Old Noah was there to answer the call
He finished up making the ark just as the rain started fallin'
He marched in the animals two by two
And he called out as they went through
"Hey, Lord"
I've got your green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty-backed camels and your chimpanzees
Some catsandratsand lephants, but Lord, I'm so forlorn,
I just can't see no unicorn"
Then Noah looked out through the driving rain
Them unicorns was hidin, playin silly games
Kickin and splashin while the rain was pourin
Oh, them silly unicorns
There was green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty-backed camels and chimpanzees
Noah cried, "close the doors 'cause the rain is pourin'
And we just can't wait for no unicorns"
The ark started movin', it drifted with the tide
Them unicorns looked up from the rock and they cried
And the waters came down and sort of floated them away
And that's why you'll never see a unicorn, to this very day
You'll see green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty-backed camels and chimpanzees
Some catsandratsandelephants, but sure as you're born
You're never gonna see no unicorn
