歌词
An effervescing elephant with tiny eyes, and great big trunk
一只冒泡的大象 眼睛小小 鼻子大大
once whispered to the tiny ear the ear of one inferior
有一次呀他悄声对着一个小不点儿的小小耳朵讲道
that by next june he'd die, Oh yeah!
明年六月之前，他就会死掉 哦耶！
because the tiger would roam
因为老虎在丛中漫步
and the little one said oh my goodness I must stay at home
那小不点儿说哎呀呀那我一定闭门不出
and everytime I hear a growl I'll know the tiger's on the prowl
一听到嗥叫声我就知道老虎在外游荡啦
but I'll be really safe you know
那我就不会有危险啦
The elephant he told me so
大象他就是这么说的
And everyone was nervvy, oh yeah!
然后大家都变得紧张兮兮的 哦耶！
and the message was spread to zebra, mongoose,
这消息传到斑马 猫鼬
and the dirty hippopotamus
还有脏兮兮的河马耳朵里
who wallowed in the mud
不过河马在泥坑里打着滚
and chewed his spicy hippoplanckton food
嚼着香香的小鱼小虾
and tended to ignore the word
才不理会这些
prefering to survey a herd of stupid water bison, oh yeah!
他更愿意去研究那群蠢蠢的水牛 哦耶！
and the jungle took fright
整个丛林都吓坏了
and ran around for all the day and the night
全部没日没夜四处奔命
but all in vain
但其实都是自己吓唬自己
because you see the tiger came and said
因为你看老虎走过来讲
"Who me? You know I wouldn't hurt not one of you “
谁？我吗？我才不会伤害你们的任何一个咧
I much prefer something to chew
我喜欢有点嚼劲的东西
and you're all too scant, oh yeah!"
你们都太单薄啦，哦耶！”
He ate the elephant...
他吃掉了大象...
