ted egan - that's a camel lyrics
[intro]
i had to create a song about the craziest of creatures – the camel
[verse 1]
a camel is a horse
designed by a committee
with feet is rather co-rs-
you’d never call him pretty
but though he’s not a dandy
he comes in very handy
for going somewhat sandy
that’s a camel
[verse 2]
a camel’s lots of fun
when he gets to know you
and if you’re on his back
he’d never try to throw you
although he’s known to stumble
and his stomach’s known to rumble
in temperament he’s humble
that’s a camel
[verse 3]
when a camel smiles at you
i’m sure your diagnosis
will quickly be confirmed
as chronic halitosis
but though his face disgraces
he knows his favourite place is
a lovely good oasis
that’s a camel
[verse 4]
a camel on the trot
might look quite ungainly
elegant, he’s not
you’ll see that very plainly
for breakfast, tea and luncheon
a camel’s known to munch on
green gr-sses by the bunch, on
goes the camel
[verse 5]
the camel came across
the briny, foamy ocean
his afghan camel boss
caused quite a big commotion
he said “we’ll send you to australia
by parcel post we’ll mail ya
you’re a desert ship but we can’t sail ya
lovely camel”
[verse 6]
some say a camel’s hump
is full of fat and dristle
some say it’s full of h20
so you can wet your whistle
and if you think you ought to stop
and have a drink of water
you’ll be mighty glad you bought
a lovely camel, yes
if you think you ought to stop
and have a drink of water
you’ll be mighty glad you bought
a lovely camel
a lovely camel
