03. The Hamster Didn't Die Today
THE HAMSTER DIDN'T DIE TODAY Lyrics
VERSE ah-ah
There was a time when I said "Fine" when you asked me of my life
ah-ah
My job was swell my kid was great and I was a good man's wife
ah - ah ah - ah ah - ah ah - ah
But since our first two hamsters bit the dust my intuition I don't trust
ah! ah! nu-um-ber three
I spend my time concerned 'bout Number 3
ah - ah ah - ah ah-ah ah - ah
My answer now has surely changed priorities been rearranged
ah ah ah-ah
And so I say the following to thee
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Listen up, listen up The whole world’s swingin’ ‘cause we’re singin’ the Hamster, the Hamster Melody
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
ooh - wah he didn’t die today
The hamster didn't die today
ooh - wah he didn’t no he didn’t die today
He didn't breathe his last and go away
ah - ooh! ah - who?
We didn't wake to find him stiff like his predecessors, Joe and Biff
no, he didn’t no he didn’t
The hamster didn't die today.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
ooh - wah he didn’t die today
The hamster that we have has not died
ooh - wah we haven’t shed a tear we haven’t cried
He hasn't met his final end we haven't cried
ah - poop
He hasn't pooped his final poop
ah - croup
Hasn't succumbed to the croup
no he didn’t we said he didn’t
The hamster that we have hasn't died
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
BRIDGE
You'll never feel a love that is real
‘Til you see your little Hammy spinning on his wheel
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
ooh - wah he hasn’t bought the farm
Our hamster hasn't bought the farm
ooh - wah he didn’t set off any false alarm
Hasn't hung himself or set off an alarm
ooh - Pete
Hasn't met dear old St. Peter
ah - meet
Time's not run out on his meter
no he didn’t we said he didn’t
Our hamster hasn't bought the farm
……………………………………………………………………………………………………..
ooh - wah today did not expire
No, our hamster today did not expire
ooh - wah didn’t bite the dust & greet the heavenly choir Ah
Didn't bite the dust or greet the heavenly choir
ooh - no!
Didn't meet his just reward
ooh - whoa!~NW
