Текст (слова) песни: Manhattan Transfer - Tubby At The Circus
Tubby (Tim Hauser) When the buds begin to pop And the robin takes a hop Everybody says, "It`s spring today!" I suppose that may be so, But I`d like for you to know I can always tell it`s spring another way/ I can always tell it`s spring When the circus comes to town; It makes me want to sing When I bump into a clown! When the circus marches past And the band goes tan-ta-ra I know it`s spring at last, And my heart goes, "OOM-PAH!"
Tubby`s Idea (Cheryl Bentyne) Alley-oop, OOM-PAH, Alley-oop, OOM-PAH, An acrobat you ought to be, Alley-oop, OOM-PAH, Alley-oop, OOM-PAH, Hey Tubby! You`d be a sight to see!
Elephant (Alan Paul) Be yourself, you can`t be anybody else, Be yourself is my advice to you, Or else you`ll always be a nobody, So be yourself, or else. A hippopotamus Would look very curious Flying like a butterfly; A fierce and hungry lion Would look silly tryin` To bake an apple pie. I think you`d get a laugh If you saw a tall giraffe Swinging by his tail from a tree; I think an octopus Would look quite ridiculous Knitting sweaters at the bottom of the sea. So be yourself, and do the things that you know best, Be yourself, I think that you`d be happiest By being no one else but you.
