Graham Parker & The Figgs - High Horse lyrics

The saddest animal in this zoo Is not the lion the tiger or The pink-a** baboon It's not the giant centipede or The vampire bat Not the black mambo or the feral cat Yeah there's one creature Much worse of course Yeah the baddest one he is the high horse Chorus Get off your high horse Get off your high horse Get off your high horse Get off The biggest ape swingin' Through these trees Won't try to bring you Down to your knees The most vicious lizard From the isle of komodo Won't jerk you around Like you are a yo yo Yeah there's one animal Worse of course I'm a talking about the high horse Chorus Now don't sweat the rhino With his horn up high Or the pangolin or the tsetse fly Ignore the marabou stork And the laughing hyena The scorpion and the Ring-tailed lemur Yeah there's one creature Much worse of course Yeah the baddest one She is the high horse Chorus
