The Unicorn Songtext

The Unicorn Songtext

A long time ago, when the Earth was green
There was more kinds of animals than you′d ever seen
They'd run around free while the Earth was being born
But the loveliest of them all was the unicorn
There was green alligators and long neck geese
Some humpty back camels and some chimpanzees
Some cats and rats and elephants
But sure as you′re born
The loveliest of all was the unicorn
Now God seen some sinnin' and it gave him pain
And he says "Stand back, I'm going to make it rain"
He says, "Hey brother Noah, I′ll tell you what to do.
Build me a floating zoo. And pick some of them
Green alligators and long neck geese
Some humpty back camels and some chimpanzees
Some cats and rats and elephants
But sure as you′re born
Don't you forget my unicorn."
Old Noah was there to answer the call
He finished up making the arc just as the rain started fallin′


He marched in the animals two by two
And he called out as they went through, "Hey Lord,
I got your green alligators and long neck geese
Some humpty back camels and some chimpanzees
Some cats and rats and elephants
But Lord, I'm so forlorn
I just can′t see no unicorn
Then Noah looked out through the driving rain
Them unicorns were hiding, playing silly games
Kickin' and splashin′ while the rain was pourin'
Oh them silly unicorns
There was green alligators and long neck geese
Some humpty back camels and some chimpanzees
Noah cried, "Close the door, 'cause the rain is pourin′
And we just can′t wait for no unicorn."
The arc started movin'
It drifted with the tide
Them unicorns looked up from their rocks and they cried
And the waters came down and sort of floated them away
And that′s why you never seen a unicorn to this very day
You'll see green alligators and long neck geese
Some humpty back camels and some chimpanzees
Some cats and rats and elephants
But sure as you′re born
You're never gonna see no unicorn
