Hippo Stomp

If I should go astray and say "I lost my way" nobody would know me But if I don't believe I can and still say "Hear my plan" Somebody would follow just because it's free We're all Hippos rollin' down the river Sometimes we can't touch the ground Like Hippos slidin' in the water Somehow we're stompin' around If you should go astray and say "I lost my way" nobody will know you But if you don't believe you can and still say "I'm your man" Somebody will follow just because it's free We're all Hippos rollin' down the river Sometimes we can't touch the ground Like Hippos slindin' in the water Somehow we're stompin' around Now you can see me lyin' down in my swamp Any time I feel disgusted You'll see me do the hippo stomp You stop and watch me while you're out on your midnite romp And I can feel the silent question What the heck is the Hippo Stomp? Hey! Hey! You should try it when you're feelin' blue Let me answer you and let me tell ya true Just how I feel when I'm down Sometimes I wonder You'll see me stumblin' around But you just point and stare Come on let me hear ya Somewhere there's a voice down inside And when you find it let it teach you how to ask the question "why" Just because we live together We don't have to like each other So please don't fall asleep on me again Nobody, nobody, nobody knows for sure You just might never wake up from the dream Hey! Speak up let me hear ya Let me show you 'round the reservation I know my way around these parts I've lived here long enough Now you can have a taste, an indication Of things and times to come Early in the morning, late at night Somebody seems to know just how this thing work's right 'Cause every time I come around the corner somebody's looking out my door He's been snoopin' like a hound I'll grab his neck and shake him on down Now you can see me lyin' down in my swamp Any time I feel disgusted You'll see me do the Hippo Stomp
