There's a funky little creature, big and round, oh so cute
He's got a big ol' snout and a mighty tushy too
He's a hippo, oh whoa, the king of the river flow
Let me tell you something 'bout him, won't you come on, let's go
The Hip-Hop Hippo, he's so cool
Swimmin' in the water, like a big ol' pool
With his strong, thick skin, he never gets weary
Let's learn about this hippo, it's the Hip-Hop theory
He's got a barrel-shaped body, built for underwater sway
With webbed toes and mighty thighs, he glides the riverway
He's a herbivore, munching on plants by the bunch
But don't mess with his territory, he'll give you quite a punch
