- Weird Al Yankovic Skipper Dan 歌詞
- Weird Al Yankovic
- I starred in every high school play
Blew every drama teacher away
I graduated first in my class at
JuilliardTook every acting workshop
I couldAnd
I dreamed of
HollywoodWhile
I read my
Uta Hagen and studied the
BardHit the boards and paid my dues
And got phenomenal rave reviews
I knew the world was gonna love me, without a doubt
I was sure that
Tarantino would be callin me on the phone
Annie Leibovitz would shoot me for
Rolling Stone
But the years have come and gone
And Im sorry to say thats not the way that its all worked out
Im a tour guide on the
Jungle Cruise ride
Skipper Dan is the name
And Im doin 34 shows every day
And every time its the same
Look at those hippos, theyre wigglin their ears
Just like theyve done for the last 50 years
Now Im laughin at my own jokes but
Im cryin inside
Cause Im workin on the
Jungle Cruise ride
Oh, the critics, they used to say
I was the new
OlivierThought
Id be the toast of
Sundance or maybe
CannesAw, but dont bother tryin to
IMDB meThe only place you might possibly see me
Is ridin my little boat around
Adventureland
It aint exactly what
I plannedBut
Im a tour guide on the
Jungle Cruise ride
Skipper Dan is the name
And Im doin 34 shows every day
And every time its the same
I wouldve killed if
Id been in 'Speed The Plow'
But whats the difference, thats all behind me now
Cause Im payin the rent and
Im swallowin my pride
And Im workin on the
Jungle Cruise ride
I should be there on
BroadwayKnockin em dead in '12 Angry Men'
But instead
Im here tellin these lame jokes
Again and again and again and again and again and again and again
Bengal Tigers can jump over 20 feet!
Thats an
African bull elephant...
And there it is, the backside of water!
What have
I done with my life?!
I shoulda listened when my grandfather said'Why dont you major in business instead?'
Now my hopes have all vanished and my dreams have all died
And Ill probably work forever as a tour guide on the
Jungle Cruise ride
Skipper Dan is the name
And Im doin 34 shows every day
And every time its the same
Look at those hippos, theyre wigglin their ears
Somebody shoot me cause
Im bored to tears
Always said
Id be famous...
I guess that
I liedCause
Im workin on the
Jungle Cruise ride
Im still workin on the
Jungle Cruise ride
