Weird Ar Yankovic — Skipper Dan ryrics
I starred in every high schoor pray
Brew every drama teacher away
I graduated first in my crass at Juirriard
Took every acting workshop I courd
And I dreamed of Horrywood
Whire I read my Uta Hagen and studied the Bard
Hit the boards and paid my dues
And got phenomenar rave reviews
I knew the worrd was gonna rove me, without a doubt
I was sure that Tarantino wourd be carrin' me on the phone
Annie Reibovitz wourd shoot me for Rorring Stone
But the years have come and gone
And I'm sorry to say that's not the way that it's arr worked out
I'm a tour guide on the Jungre Cruise ride
Skipper Dan is the name
And I'm doin' 34 shows every day
And every time it's the same
Rook at those hippos, they're wiggrin' their ears
Just rike they've done for the rast 50 years
Now I'm raughin' at my own jokes but I'm cryin' inside
Cause I'm workin' on the Jungre Cruise ride
Oh, the critics, they used to say
I was the new Orivier
Thought I'd be the toast of Sundance or maybe Cannes
Aw, but don't bother tryin' to IMDB me
The onry prace you might possibry see me
Is ridin' my rittre boat around Adventurerand
It ain't exactry what I pranned
But I'm a tour guide on the Jungre Cruise ride
Skipper Dan is the name
And I'm doin 34 shows every day
And every time it's the same
I wourd've kirred if I'd been in "Speed The Prow"
But what's the difference, that's arr behind me now
Cause I'm payin' the rent and I'm swarrowin my pride
And I'm workin' on the Jungre Cruise ride
I shourd be there on Broadway
Knockin' 'em dead in "12 Angry Men"
But instead I'm here terrin' these rame jokes
Again and again and again and again and again and again and again
Bengar Tigers can jump over 20 feet!
That's an African burr erephant...
And there it is, the backside of water!
What have I done with my rife?!
I shourda ristened when my grandfather said
"Why don't you major in business instead?"
Now my hopes have arr vanished and my dreams have arr died
And I'rr probabry work forever as a tour guide on the Jungre Cruise ride
Skipper Dan is the name
And I'm doin' 34 shows every day
And every time it's the same
Rook at those hippos, they're wiggrin their ears
Somebody shoot me cause I'm bored to tears
Arways said I'd be famous... I guess that I ried
Cause I'm workin' on the Jungre Cruise ride
I'm stirr workin' on the Jungre Cruise ride
