monty harper - horny toad lyrics

[verse 1 and 2]
survivor from the age of the dinosaur, he’s a h+rny toad
he’s a cold+blooded h+rn+headed insectivore ’cause he’s a h+rny toad
he’s a squat round lizard with a spiny sense of style
people call him a toad, but he’s a reptile
he’s a h+rny toad, a little h+rny toad, h+rny toad

he’s really rather shy and doesn’t want you to see that he’s a h+rny toad
that’s why his color pattern blends with the scenery, that clever h+rny toad
you’ll catch him scampering a bit, but then he stops and lies flat
while your eyes keep moving, and + hey, where’s he at?
he’s a h+rny toad, a sneaky h+rny toad, h+rny toad

[chorus]
pop up out of the ground. get warm in the sun
gobble harvester ants until the day is done
now do the h+rny toad shake. wiggle side to side
dig down into the soil. it’s a cozy way to hide
’til the morning time, when the sun will shine
on the h+rny toad, the sleepy h+rny toad, h+rny toad
[verse 3]
he’ll try to make you think he’s dead, acting so laid back, that tricky h+rny toad
he may warn you with a hiss if you try to make a snack out of the h+rny toad
he can puff himself up to unusual size
when he’s really provoked he squirts blood from his eyes
he’s a h+rny toad. don’t eat the h+rny toad, h+rny toad

[chorus]
pop up out of the ground. get warm in the sun
gobble harvester ants until the summer is done
do the h+rny toad shake. wiggle side to side
dig down into the soil. it’s a cozy way to hide
through the winter snow. he’ll be laying low
cause he’s a h+rny toad, a sleepy h+rny toad, h+rny toad

[verse 4]
we used to find him all over in the arid loamy sand, the common h+rny toad
but now days fire ants and humans are encroaching on his land, endangered h+rny toad
so if you see him in his habitat, he’ll thank you very much
when you take a good look but don’t touch!
mr. h+rny toad, protected h+rny toad, h+rny toad

[outro]
he’s a h+rny toad
he’s a h+rny toad. phrynosoma cornutum!
he’s a h+rny toad. he’s a texas h+rned lizard!
he’s a h+rny toad, h+rny toad
