Hop!

sung by Kermit the Frog (Jim Henson)
parts in brackets sung by cows

I don’t know how to fly (My, my!)
High up in the sky (High, high!)
A frog is what I am (Yes, ma’am!)
I’m happy as a clam (Flimflam!)
‘Cause there’s one thing I can do! (Doo-hoo!)
Come on and do it too! (Too-hoo!)

Come on!
It’s neat!
Don’t need
Webbed feet!

Do-wop do-wop! HOP!
Do-wop do-wop! DON'T STOP! (Don’t stop!)
Do-wop do-wop! HOP!
Do-wop do-wop! DON’T STOP! (Don’t stop!)

I don’t know how to bark (Bow wow!)
Or sing just like a lark (Hoo-hoo!)
I can't moo just like a cow (How now?)
‘Cause frogs just don’t know how (Wow-wow!)
But there’s one thing I can do! (Doo-woo!)
And you can do it too! (Too-woo!)

Come on!
It’s keen!
Don’t need
To be green!

Do-wop do-wop! HOP!
Do-wop do-wop! DON’T STOP! (Don’t stop!)
(yeah yeah yeah)

I can’t swing up a tree (So sad!)
I’m not a chimpanzee (Too bad!)
Since I was a pollywog (Young tad!)
Been proud to be a frog (Good lad!)
‘Cause there’s one thing I can do! (Doo-woo!)
Come on and do it too! (Too-woo!)

There’s nothing
Hipper!
Get down on
One flipper ...

And do-wop do-wop! HOP!
Do-wop do-wop! DON’T STOP! (Don’t stop!)
Do-wop do-wop! HOP!
Do-wop do-wop! DON’T STOP! (Don’t stop!)

No, do-wop do-wop! HOP!
Hop!
Do-wop do-wop! DON’T STOP! (Don’t stop!)
Do-wop do-wop! HOP!
I love it!
Do-wop do-wop! DON’T STOP! (Don’t stop!)

Do-wop do-wop! HOP!
Do-wop do-wop! DON’T STOP! (Don’t stop!)
Do-wop do-wop HOP!
Do-wop do-wop DON’T STOP! (Don’t stop!)
