The joggin' elephant (Der joggende Elefant)

Stephen Janetzko

I know an elephant, he's out of his element. Golly golly golly go golly golly golly go He really does not like the zoo and being indoors makes him blue He's no stay-at-home noggin 'cause what he likes is joggin' Rain, sun and the joggin' fun’s begun Really?
(elephant:) Got to take a quick look My looks ain't yet so good I am almost naked What I need I'll take it
And then the elephant puts his jogging trousers on Golly golly golly go golly golly golly go He opens up his wardrobe and He sits down on the kitchen bench The jogging pants, he puts on and hurries to the stadium Rain, sun, and the joggin' fun’s begun Really?

And then the elephant puts his pair of big socks on Golly golly golly go golly golly golly go He opens up his wardrobe and He sits down on the kitchen bench The jogging socks, he puts on and hurries to the stadium Rain, sun, and the joggin' fun’s begun Really?

...jogging sneakers... (The jogging shoes...) 5. ...jogging t-shirt... (The jogging shirt...) 6. ...big bandana... 7. ...jogging jacket... 8. ...cap for jogging... (The jogging cap...) (whatever comes to your mind!)
Last Chorus (elephant): I am ready yippee! Blast! I got to wee-wee Get off everything quick Do quick acrobatics
(Instructions to play: Just do what the lyrics say, to „golly golly golly go...“ everybody stomps. After the chorus together you may think about what to put on further on, then the next verse follows.)
