Not for fancy pants humanitarians Not for chatty plat**udinarians But for easy-going, simple, jocular Ocular frogs Who can thrive Just by staying friendly and alive When there's any trouble, we survive We just dive and go Blep blep blep blep!

Stay with the frogs With the frogs (What do you care the world's a wreck?) With the wits of the bogs! (Leave 'em alone, send 'em a check) Not your hippy dippy insurrectionists Not your hasty pasty-faced perfectionists (What do you care the world's a wreck?) Stay with the easy-going, simple, rollicking (Leave 'em alone, send 'em a check) Frolicking Frogs In the reeds Leave the world alone and count the weeds While the world may not know what it needs It proceeds And in time Will be Sublime All bogs And weeds And frogs And beautiful slogs Brek-kek kek-kek kek-kek kek-kek Kek-kek kek-kek kek-kek kek-kek Ko-ax!
